First known as the Vans #36, the Old Skool debuted in 1977 with a unique new addition: a random doodle drawn by founder Paul Van Doren, and originally referred to as the “jazz stripe.” Today, the famous Vans Sidestripe has become the unmistakable—and instantly recognizable—hallmark of the Vans brand. Constructed with durable suede and canvas uppers in a range of fresh colorways, the Old Skool pays homage to our heritage while ensuring that this low top, lace-up shoe remains as iconic as ever. It also features re-enforced toe caps, supportive padded collars, and signature rubber waffle outsoles.

I love vans, they're an all around dope shoe ! They fit comfortably and this neutral color is great because they can be worn with a lot of other colors.

Bought these recently and love the colour and fit.
These were for my daughter to replace the black ones she had previously. She is very happy with them, comfortable fit, nice colour.
I absolutely LOVE EVERYTHING about my new Vans. From the low top style to the baby blue color and combination of textures (top toe area and back heel, are soft suede) the rest of the shoe is canvas. This style looks great with anything and is an awesome addition to my current Vans collection!
A really good and smart looking trainer. Super comfy as well. Love the color
I bought these and wear with my hoodies and tshirts. I've even wore these with a short body dress and Jean jacket. So cute with any outfit.
I only wear Vans and these didn’t disappoint. The color is different but the feel is on point. These are my 13th pair of Vans. They rock.
My daughter loves her new Vans. She will be wearing them to both prom and graduation. They match her dresses perfectly. Theses are a great addition to her Vans shoe collection, as well as her summer wardrobe!
