The iconic shoe that brought our Sidestripe to life: this is the Old Skool

The Old Skool was our first footwear design to showcase the famous Vans Sidestripe—starting out as a simple sketch by our founder Paul Van Doren in 1977, this low-top has since made a name for itself in the skate, music, and fashion scenes. From 90s street skaters and punks to current hip hop and fashion legends, the Old Skool has consistently been the go-to shoe for creatives who do things their own way. With its clean lines and timeless design, this shoe can be effortlessly integrated into any look. Make it your own!
