Vans Geoff Rowley Style 99's

Geoff's thirteenth signature shoe is the culmination of over a decade of design experience with Vans. In Geoff's words: "The Style 99's was a design idea I had been thinking over for the last few years- how to design a simple yet very unique pattern that would be both timeless and modern. All Vans footwear that has stood the test of time had these two elements. I would say it has been in the works since the moment I rode for Vans in early 1999, hence the name." The shoe is built on the foundation of Rowley's first Vans shoe with a simplified, slim padded upper inspired by our heritage. The upper features a subtle reference to the sidestripe- a detail Geoff deliberately worked into the design. The Style 99's combines clean colorblocking and the classic waffle sole to deliver all the style and performance you've come to expect from a Rowley design.

Vans Dustin Dollin DD-66 - Suit Stripes

Dustin Dollin's fourth pro model shoe features BoardFeel XD construction that delivers "Out of the Box" performance, with little or no break-in time required. The advanced cupsole construction matches the grip and flex of our vulcanized classics, but increases cushioning and support. Visually, this shoe draws from our classic look, and the simple paneling is ideal for special materials. Featuring thinner padding for increased performance, the DD-66 takes skating and style to the next level. 

Vans Kingdom Plaid Style 31

The Style 31 hybrid look includes design features from some of Vans' top heritage skate shoe styles brought together in one unique package. This pair also includes the Kingdom Plaid print, giving them a bold look that is a rarity amongst skate shoes. They are built to compliment your own original skate style.

Vans 2 Tone Canvas Authentic

icon
Vans' storied history, and our connection with skate and surf culture, began in 1966 Southern California with the rolling out of a single pair of shoes. They were named Authentic. In the generations since, they have only gotten more popular amongst hardcore skaters and skate enthusiasts. Their design is simple, stylish, and effective: a low top lace-up profile made with sturdy canvas uppers, and signature waffle rubber soles.
