"First known as the Vans #36, the Old Skool debuted in 1977 with a unique new addition: a random doodle drawn by founder Paul Van Doren, and originally referred to as the “jazz stripe.” Today, the famous Vans Sidestripe has become the unmistakable-and instantly recognisable-hallmark of the Vans brand. Featuring sturdy suede and canvas uppers with split colours, the Old Skool Split Shoes pay homage to our heritage while ensuring that these low top, lace-ups remains as iconic as ever. They also include reinforced toe caps, supportive padded collars, and signature rubber waffle outsoles. • Vans’ iconic low top, Sidestripe™ shoe • Sturdy suede and canvas uppers • Lace-up closure • Reinforced toe caps • Supportive padded collars • Signature rubber waffle outsoles"
