The Old Skool MTE revamps the legendary Vans sidestripe skate shoe with additions designed for the elements. Premium weather-resistant leather and textile uppers, warm linings, and a heat retention layer between sockliner and outsole keep feet warm and dry while the newly-constructed vulcanized lug outsole takes advantage of 20 years of snow boot history for maximum traction. The Old Skool MTE also features re-enforced toe caps to withstand repeated wear, and padded collars for support and flexibility.
