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—although back then, it was just a simple doodle drawn by founder Paul Van Doren. Since its debut in 1977, this low-top silhouette has established itself as an icon 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.

Nice fit, very comfortable, classy. I really loved it.
At this point, I think I'd like to get these in every color. My only complaint is that the tongue could be a bit more thick.
Very comfortableNice styleGoes great with many looks
Hadn't worn a pair of vans in years. Like 15.These will be a staple of my closet henceforth.
Within a few weeks of occasional use there is a split on the edge of the shoe.
My crocs used to be my favorite shoes but after a few times wearing these they quickly took the place of my crocs as my go to shoes. The style is effortless. Comfort is a solid 7. They stain rather quickly but it's nothing that routine cleaning won't fix. They crease quickly as well but shoes with a sidewall like that will always crease. My converse crease the same way so it's not just these. Still love em tho. They go with anything too.
