Vans Introduces the Refreshed Skate Old Skool 36+ Model
Vans introduces a look at the new Style 36+ model, which nods to an original debut back in 1977 -- the silhouette is also known as the Old Skool, the second skate model by Vans, and the first to sport the signature side stripe. The brand honors this heritage with the Skate Old Skool 36+, a new skate sneaker reminiscent of the original Style 36 with a modern perspective.
The Skate Old Skool 36+ is defined by a few elements including its padded tongue and a shorter toe cap, making it optimal for skaters looking for both substance and style simultaneously. The technicalities include the DURACAP technology which reinforces high-wear areas to ensure the shoe delivers elevated grip and board control further supported by the SUCKSTICK gum rubber blend and waffle sole unit. Finally, the POPCUSH insole technology ensures cushioning and comfort.
