Culture Note™
The Vans Old Skool, initially known as Style #36, materialized in 1977. It marked a pivotal moment, being the first Vans creation to brandish the iconic Sidestripe, a design born from co-founder Paul Van Doren's creative impulse. The inclusion of durable leather panels further solidified its place in history.
Primarily designed for skateboarding, the Old Skool's robust construction and grippy outsole provide superior performance on a board. Beyond its athletic utility, the shoe has become a staple for casual wear and lifestyle, seamlessly integrating into various facets of everyday life.
The Old Skool's influence is undeniable, having become a cornerstone of subcultures. The shoe's impact has been felt by figures such as the skateboarding icon Tony Alva, who helped popularize the brand in the late 1970s at the Del Mar Skate Ranch. Further cementing its legacy, the Old Skool has become a symbol of rebellion, embraced by the punk rock scene, particularly in venues such as CBGB in New York City during the late 70s. Moreover, the Old Skool has found its place within streetwear and hip-hop culture, solidifying its status as a timeless classic.
This iteration of the Old Skool showcases a low-top silhouette, meticulously crafted with reinforced toecaps and padded collars. The construction incorporates a blend of materials, including canvas, suede, leather for the Sidestripe, and rubber. The signature waffle outsole provides exceptional grip and boardfeel.
