Vans Sk8-Hi Gore-Tex Shoes

Comfort in a difficult time

These Vans Sk8-Hi Gore-Tex Shoes are here to give you max protection in the harshest conditions. The Gore-Tex® coating on the canvas upper keeps your feet dry in wet weather outside. High top style with reinforced toe caps, supportive padded collar and a soft foam midsole add comfort to every step you take. The signature rubber waffle outsole has got your back when it comes to traction and durability.

The Sk8-Hi entered the sneaker world in `76 (just after Era`s launch) and took the streets by storm. After all, it had everything that the skateboarding fam was looking for in a shoe – more padding, better comfort, leather-and-canvas for durability, and most importantly, ankle protection. The mix of high-top, padded design with the famous `jazz stripe` or sidestripe quickly made Sk8-Hi popular among skaters. Since then, it has survived the test of time and continues to be the shoe of choice for many.

Gaining popularity as many of the skateboarding greats began wearing them, the rugged lace-up soon came to make up the vivid pop of colours seen on skate parks. Now available in every possible colour and combination, Vans adds personality to any ensemble.
