Complete with a cushioned ankle collar, white leather lining and thin canvas tongue, you can pick up a pair here for £53 GBP (approximately $84 USD).

The latest iterations to the classic Vans Old Skool have hit select retailers in an all leather constructed upper. Offered in black/grey or navy/black, both colorways maintain leather uppers with the exception of a tonal cotton canvas tongue. A pure white outsole receives a customary honeycomb gum sole.
