Vans' answer to the season's crisp weather is simple: thrashable sweaters for your feet.

The brand has redesigned its classic Old Skool skate shoe with shaggy jacquard knit uppers, creating this ultra-cozy version of the model just in time for the transitioning weather.

The Vans sneaker is honestly a bowl of pleasing premium materials, offering smooth suede touches, a creamy leather lining, and a slick reflective tongue in addition to its sweater-like uppers.

Vans has produced other warm skate shoes, including pairs wrapped in shaggy suede and even checkered knit "sweaters." The latest Old Skool 36 sneakers, however, stand out more with their design and make.

The shoes come from the mind of the Tokyo Design Collective. This design team marries high-end materials and Japanese craftsmanship to create these impressive new versions of Vans' classic sneakers. TDC has whipped up everything from ultra-breathable skate shoes to beautifully distressed Super Lowpro sneakers.
