Introducing the Old Skool 36+ A Modern Take on an Icon
Vans has always been at the forefront of skate culture. With the release of the Old Skool 36+, they've taken an iconic classic and blended the timeless style of the original Old Skool with performance-driven upgrades to meet the demands of today's skater.
A nod to the past, with a fresh twist
Originally launched in 1977 as the Style 36, the Old Skool quickly became a game changer in skate footwear. It was the first Vans shoe to feature the Sidestripe and the very first with a suede toe cap. This helped by offering more durability and control. Fast forward to today, the Skate Old Skool 36+continues that legacy with updated features that modern skaters will love.

From reinforced areas that hold up against wear and tear, to advanced cushioning. The 36+ is definitely ready to take on your next skate sessions

Shorter toe cap: a subtle tweak to the original. This shorter toe cap offers a sleeker fit, perfect for skaters who want both style and performance.
Skate reinforcements: The 36+ is built to last, thanks to Vans' duracap technology. This extra reinforcement in high-wear areas ensures the shoe stands up for a lot of skate sessions
