The Lizzie 'Frost Grey' represents a pivotal moment: the first signature skate shoe from Lizzie Armanto. This release signifies a commitment to inclusivity within skateboarding. The shoe's debut in 2022 marked a significant step in diversifying the landscape of professional skateboarding footwear, cementing Vans' dedication to supporting a broader spectrum of athletes and enthusiasts.
Designed explicitly for skateboarding, The Lizzie delivers unparalleled performance and control. The shoe's features, like the 3D Embossed DURACAP™ toe, are engineered for durability. The vulcanized construction with a lower profile sidewall and flex grooves enhances board feel. Extra laces are included to ensure skaters are well-prepared for any situation, emphasizing the shoe's focus on functionality.
The Lizzie 'Frost Grey' has immediately become a symbol of progress, championed by the very athlete it was designed for, Lizzie Armanto. Armanto, a trailblazer in her own right, was a central figure in the shoe's development. Beyond Armanto, the shoe's inclusive design and sustainable materials have resonated with a new generation of skaters. The impact is seen in the shoe’s VR3 Certification, reflecting the brand's commitment to reducing its environmental footprint and inspiring others.
Meticulously crafted, The Lizzie boasts a completely redesigned upper, tailored to Armanto's unique foot shape. The construction utilizes chrome-free suede, and high organic-content textiles across key areas. The inclusion of an EcoCush™ foam sockliner and SickStick™ rubber compound outsole further elevates the shoe's performance, ensuring both comfort and exceptional board feel during intense skateboarding sessions.
