Vans' Classic Skate Sneakers Are Prestigious Trail Shoes Now
Skates shoes made into trail sneakers? Vans makes it so.
Vans has taken its most classic sneakers from the skate park to the great outdoors for a new "Trail Pack."
Vans has offered trail shoes before but its latest Trail Pack is a product of Vans' OTW imprint, which is known for its more experimental sneaker designs and top-tier materials. So, expect premium, hiking-ready shoes from this collection — because that's exactly what Vans OTW had in mind.
The Vans OTW sneaker pack includes the Speed Trail, Half Cab 33 Trail, and Old Skool 36 Trail, essentially outdoor-ified versions of the iconic Old Skool and Half Cab skate shoes.
Vans has redesigned these classics with features ready for all terrains and weather.
These touches include chunked-up, durable Vibram soles, waterproof uppers, and practical details like pull tabs and easy shoelace systems, making the classic Vans silhouettes extra useful.
On the surface, the Vans Trail sneakers look quite good, too (regular business for the fashionable OTW line).
The Half Cab 33 Trail Vibram sneaker arrives in this vibrant, two-tone colorway, while the Speed Trail Vibram's stylish, suede-like uppers are splashed in earthy browns and cream whites.
And the best part? None of this slickly rugged goodness will cost you any more than an ordinary outdoor shoe.
If you're in the mood for hiking-prepped skate shoes, look to the Trail Pack shoes that're now available on the Vans' website and priced between $145 - $165.
