It doesn't get any more classic thank this! Iconic in every way, Vans re-introduces the signature Authentic black and white canvas skate shoes. Originally designed as a simple deck shoe, the shoe's popularity as a casual, everyday sneaker and as a skate shoe helped propel Vans into what they are now. The black canvas upper is contrasted by the white stitching, eyelets and midsole ensuring a striking, classic look that goes with any outfit.
