Overview

The Sk8-Hi was originally introduced in 1978. This shoe provided new functions and style to skaters in the 80's. Vans has created the Skate Sk8-Hi Shoes to bring nostalgia with upgraded technology. The Vans Skate Sk8-Hi is apart of "Vans Skate Classics" line of footwear. These are the most iconic skate shoes created by Vans but revamped to fit the needs of modern day skateboarding. These shoes integrate tongue straps for a snug fit, DURACAP™ underlay for durability, SickStick™ a rubber compound used to make a grippy outsole, and internal heel shanks to deliver more board feel in order to create a classic yet modern skate shoe.

Features

Sole

Vulcanized - “Vulc” shoes are light, flexible and break in quickly. These don't provide as much foot protection as cupsoles, but they are preferred if you’re looking for good board feel in a shoe with less weight and bulk.

Footbed

PopCush™ - Vans' PopCush insoles snap back and won't pack! This proprietary foam compound was meticulously tuned and tested for impact protection, superior cushioning, and custom energy return. This upgraded foam performs better than Vans' UltraCush™ compound for all types of skating so you can skate longer and go harder than ever before.

Details

Duracap™ - Developed and tested to withstand the abuse of the Vans pro skateboarding team; reinforcement is provided through rubber underlays in the toebox and ollie-area for lasting durability to save you time and money.

SickStick™ - Taking inspiration from Vans' beloved original gum rubber formula, the SickStick formula is the grippiest and the stickiest gum sole in Vans history. Extensively tested by Vans' team riders, the formula is uniquely calibrated to deliver enhanced grip and durability, and also make a firm bind to the foxing tape, so you can be in complete control of your board.

My favorite vans to skate!

Vans Skate Sk8-Hi Shoes - black/white
I used to skate the filmore hi vans & I just picked these up & I honestly love them! These shoes usually last me about 3-6 months depending on how much I’m skating. I will say the pair I received, the red strap on the inside for the tongue stained my socked but other than that these are extremely comfortable, I definitely recommend these joints!
