CUSTOM. SINCE BEFORE THAT WAS A THING. Vans Customs have been a tradition since 1966, when Paul Van Doren made shoes with any fabric people brought by the shop. Today, the creativity is still in your hands. Pick your shoe, pick your colors and patterns, and make them yours. The Sk8-Hi, Vans legendary lace-up high-top built for skating, has an Off the Wall persona thanks to the iconic leather sidestripe, study canvas reinforced toecaps to withstand abuse, a flexible padded collar and heel and Vans signature Waffle Outsole. Now they’re available in Vans Customs where each shoe can be personalized with custom leather and suede, various lace and eyelet colors, exclusive patterns available only in Customs, and the option to Upload Your Art or photos from your computer or smartphone. Delivered to you in 2-3 weeks with free shipping.
