Vans This season, we take a new twist on our iconic checkerboard print with playful colour pops. Made with this classic print, the Checkerboard Sk8-Hi Zip combines the legendary Vans elastic lace high top with a zipper entry at the heel, sturdy canvas uppers, padded collars for support and flexibility, and signature rubber waffle outsoles. 

Vans' storied history, and its connection with skate and surf culture, began in 1966 Southern California with the rolling out of a single pair of shoes. They were named Authentic. In the generations since, they have only gotten more popular amongst hardcore skaters and skate enthusiasts. Their design is simple, stylish, and effective: a low top lace-up profile made with sturdy canvas uppers, and signature waffle rubber soles.
