The Vans Old Skool 36 LX, also known as the "Old Skool," is a classic skateboarding shoe. Originally introduced in 1977 as the Style 36, it was the first Vans shoe to feature the iconic Sidestripeâ„¢. This particular edition is presented in a "Black/Black" colorway, offering a stealthy, all-black aesthetic. The construction features a durable canvas and cow suede upper, complemented by a leather lining for added comfort. Key design elements include a padded collar for support, a lace closure for a secure fit, and a rubber sole for traction. The shoe also incorporates a Sola Foam All-Day-Comfort insole and a higher sidewall with a gloss finish, along with foxing tape featuring original 90s Osnaburg reinforcement. This model is a reissued version of the second shoe ever introduced by Vans, staying true to its original DNA.
