Jovani Hernandez Tom Sachs x Nike Mars Yard 3.0, Vans has had a hand in setting trends, championing creativity, and creating functional, protective footwear for non-traditional sports. One such design was the “#36” – now commonly known as the Old Skool.
The shoe debuted in 1977 as the brand’s first skate model to feature leather panels. Throughout the decades, the Old Skool has taken on countless color schemes and materials, but its overall look has remained largely intact since the late ’70s. Recently, the classic shoe emerged in a two-tone white and green ensemble. While not peculiar on its own, the arrangement is accompanied by an untraditional bolt-shaped detail that goes from the midsole to the upper’s mid-foot. To the uninformed, the design choice is simply a playful update to an iconic shoe, but there’s more than meets the eye.
