Shop Vans Old Skool footwear

Designed by Paul Van Doren in Anaheim, 40 years have passed, and this shoe is still every bit as good. It's thought that Paul actually designed the shoe as a doodle, not knowing that it would later become a best-seller.

Today, even more updates are being made to the classic Old Skool with modern iterations such as the ComfyCush and LX. Bringing even more comfort, it's just one more reason why every sneakerhead should own a pair of Old Skool shoes.

When you talk about the perfect everyday shoe, you can’t get much better than the classic Old Skool Black White. This is the essential colorway which belongs in every rotation.

If you’re looking for a colorway which stands out, Vans offer a number of patterns and motifs. You can grab the brand's trademark Old Skool Checkerboard, or for something with a little more heat, be sure to check out the Vans Old Skool Fire Print!

Not only are the many leather and suede Old Skool trainers popular, but this silhouette has also been the focus for many great collaborations. Brands such as Supreme, Comme des Garçons and even Vivienne Westwood have all used the silhouette.

It seems this label has brands queuing out of the door to put their stamp on this silhouette.
