Vans Old Skool — what makes them special?
Vans Old Skool are another classic with that iconic waffle sole. Back in 1977, 11 years after the Authentic dropped, the Style 36 was born – now known as the Old Skool. They were the first with the famous "Vans wave" – the 'jazz stripe' leather side stripe that became a signature for many models. Today they’re worn not just by skaters, but also by anyone into city style. You’ll see them on celebs like Kristen Stewart, Emma Watson and Bella Hadid.
