Buy Vans Skate shoes
The Vans Skate sneakers are essentially the models as they were developed in 1966. Real skate shoes. Equipped with a sturdy toe for ollies, a stiff waffle sole that wears down less quickly and a popcush sole for the right cushioning. These shoes look exactly the same as the fashion versions you now see in many stores. You’ll notice that even when you’re not skating, the shoe is more comfortable to walk in, feels sturdier and lasts longer. Vans Skate is only sold at specialist skate shops and online. At Burned Sports, we focus on: skate, indoor sports, lifestyle and casual clothing.
Vans
Vans started out in 1966 as a true skate brand. The models back then were equipped with a reinforced toe, a stiff waffle sole and an extra set of laces. As Vans slowly transformed into a casual brand, the functionality changed over the years. Vans sneakers have long been a fixture of everyday fashion. Lots of people (young and old) love the Oldskool Low and the Sk-8 High, because of their neutral looks. The look of these classic models has basically always stayed the same. Skating in these (fashion) versions, however, wasn’t really a success.
Dura Cap
A Dura Cap is a silicone layer attached underneath the upper of the shoe. Skaters often slide the top of their foot across the board to get the board off the ground in one smooth motion. The top of a skateboard is covered with grip tape. Grip tape gives you good grip while skating, but it does wear through the top of your shoe. That’s why the Dura Cap makes the upper of your shoe last longer.
Pop Cush
During the craziest moves and from sometimes dangerous heights, you can occasionally land hard on the ground. So it’s nice to have your landing well cushioned. With running shoes, the sole is rounded so that you land in one smooth motion. Skate shoes, on the other hand, need a flat sole to keep that ultimate board feel. A Pop Cush insole makes sure your landing is still well cushioned, while you keep the right feel for your board. Even when you’re not skating, this sole provides soft cushioning, even though the shoes are flat.
Waffle sole
You’ll find Vans’ signature waffle sole on almost every model. This pattern gives you good grip while skating and walking. These days, the waffle sole is designed so that it offers more grip at your big toe than at your little toe. This in turn gives you better board control. The quality of the rubber on the Vans Skate has also been improved compared to the fashion version. The color of the sole is often darker to clearly show that you’re dealing with a Vans Skate.
