Key Features: Vans has flipped its iconic Sk8-Hi shoe inside out. The size tag can be seen on the lateral side of the upper, as well as on the tongue. The upper is a mix of leather and canvas in white and off-white tones, while the inside features a red and blue makeup.

Editor’s Notes: Vans has unveiled an inside out Sk8-Hi, flipping the upper inside out for a bizarre yet oddly cool look.

Details that are usually hidden on the inside of a shoe, such as the size tag, are now visible on the upper, while the colors that would normally be on the outside of the upper now make up the sneaker’s lining.
