First introduced back in 1976, the Vans Era shoe is still in production today.
First made by Tony Alva and the Dogtown Crew, the shoes are currently available with a choice of canvas or suede upper and a black, white or yellow colourway, all with a padded collar and classic Waffle sole for strength and support.
Cheap too, with a pair retailing for around £35.
Were are the blue and red vans that I grew up with and skaked with as a kid? Are they ever coming back?
