The Canvas Sk8-Hi Decon brings a twist to the iconic Vans Sk8-Hi silhouette: a new deconstructed high-top canvas upper with deco stitch detailing that lets the material shape on its own accord without much structural constriction.
Completely redesigned for modern skateboarding, the all-new Cher Strauberry Skate Sk8-Hi Decon delivers more of what skateboarders need to enable maximum progression. The repositioned DURACAP™ reinforced underlays and fully redesigned uppers, combined with a new two-part foxing tape that features a deeper knurl pattern on the toe, make the Cher Strauberry Skate Sk8-Hi Decon durable enough to withstand daily skateboarding abuse. For more board control, the new molded heel counter and internal tongue straps lock in your feet. Even the gum rubber sole that made Vans famous has been elevated with the SICKSTICK™ rubber compound to deliver more grip and boardfeel. Plus, POPCUSH™ energy return sockliners provide superior cushioning and impact protection while helping to lessen leg fatigue for longer skate sessions. Internal heel stiffeners have also been added to provide more support and stability.
The Cher Strauberry Skate Sk8-Hi Decon’s updated foxing tape, along with a mix of suede and heavy canvas uppers showcasing Cher’s love of animal prints, gives you the iconic look you want while bringing all the performance benefits skateboarders demand. The new checkerboard flag on the side guarantees that you’re getting the best in style and modern skateboarding performance, and tonal sidewall print and strawberry embroidery lend this deconstructed high-top style a bold yet elevated edge.
