Activity-inspired and adventure-based, the Sk8-Hi DR MTE-2 offers new levels of day-to-day versatility. Featuring all the upgraded features of the original Sk8-Hi MTE-2, plus a metal speed lace D-ring eyelet that provides a vintage aesthetic and extra lacing support, this get-out-and-do-stuff shoe is meant to be an all-day, every-day ol’ reliable wrapped up in a classic style that only Vans can provide. It is made with leather uppers. MOISTURE MANAGEMENT - The MTE™-2 HydroGuard™ 360o package is watertight and stretchable, which results in comfortable, breathable waterproof technology. THERMOREGULATION - The zonal MTE™-2 Primaloft® insulation package uses a high-quality microfiber thermal insulation system to mimic the warmth-providing properties of down, keeping you warm without retaining internal moisture. TRACTION - The All-Trac MTE™-2 outsole offers a rubber compound that provides flexible underfoot lugs to bend with terrain changes, creating more surface area and better variable adaptability. COMFORT AND SUPPORT - Our MTE™-2 dual-density comfort package uses a single-density UltraCush™ molded EVA footbed with an OrthoLite® topsheet for enhanced comfort and reduced weight, while also supporting a drier, healthier environment inside your shoe.
