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 random 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.

What does it mean to be “ready for anything”? Wearing the Vans UltraRange Exo Black is when we find out. The Vans UltraRange Exo Black is designed for the unexpected. Increased breathability allows for seamless airflow, while the UltraCrush Lite midsole enhances comfort without sacrificing weight. For grip, the Vans UltraRange Exo Black has a full rubber-wrapped reverse waffle lug outsole. That means a combination of traction and flexibility. When it comes to shoes built for adventures, the Vans UltraRange Exo Black is the starting point.
FULL SUPPORT - EXO Skeleton provides built-in support across the toes and medial sidewall, with a heel lock for a secure fit.
ULTRACUSH® FOR COMFORT - The co-molded UltraCush® Lite midsole increases comfort, not weight.
ALL-TERRAIN GRIP - Full rubber-wrapped reverse waffle lug outsoles improve traction and flexibility.
INCREASED BREATHABILITY - An UltraCush® tongue with breathability ports offers superior airflow.
