Originally released in 1999, Vans re-issues the Upland skate shoes in a modern tri-tone "Walnut" brown colorway with white contrasting accents. Utilizing fuzzy flocked suede throughout the uppers, the Y2K cupsole skate sneakers feature exaggerated padding in the tongues and collars for added protection from dangerous trick attempts. Embracing a throwback silhouette with modern materials, the low-top Uplands are finished with iconic branding throughout and a standard lace-up closure for a secure fit.
