Skate culture would not be what it is without Vans. This sneaker brand is an icon in the skate community and beyond, and this particular model is throwing it back to the Old Skool. As a mule design, this sneaker is easy to slip on in seconds and be on your way.

The Old Skool Mule’s silhouette is immediately recognizable by anyone familiar with the original model, yet this version has some important upgrades. Specifically, the Sola Foam ADC insole makes this shoe extremely comfortable and suitable for wearing throughout the day. There is also a padded collar around the back to avoid rubbing, and the layered look of the canvas and suede upper gives this shoe all the style you would expect.

These shoes are perfect for maintaining a tight grip on your board, but they are just as suitable for walking all day or heading out to dinner in the evening. A versatile throwback, the Vans Premium Old Skool Mule make for a laid-back addition to your late summer/fall footwear collection.
