Those canvas/suede Sk8 hi's(?) are HOT. Hopefully the toebox is slimmer but I highly doubt it

They're the Crockett 2 Mid's

They're a cupsole & if they fit anything like the Crockett 2's, they're thing in the forefoot/toebox.

with all the old school/90s shoe instagram pages it seems like Vans always had some out the box cupsoles? just today they posted those "pro series" 

then the whole rowley xlt era was fucking sick!

I'm just over here wishing I could find another pair of these shits



Vans used to kill it so hard with the funky TNT and AV Sk8 Lo colorways

Yeah but I’ve heard that most of their out of the box/super puffy and tech cupsole models in late 90s, early 2000s basically almost collapsed their skate program.

Picked up the suede AA authentic hi’s, and they are comfy as fuck. I haven’t skated them yet but they seem like they would be durable. It’s been awhile since I’ve skated Vans and those AVEs look sick as fuck. Just couldn’t imagine dropping 100 on Vans tho....

which color? Pic? Is the collar padded at all
[close]

I have the blue canvas. It’s not padded, it is a bit stiff and the popcush feels nicer
I got the brown suede and the black canvas. They are not very padded at all but are comfortable and have a lot of ankle support you’d expect from a hi top. They are a bit stiff in the toe cap due to the extra layer. Currently skating the brown suede sand really enjoying them. Been awhile since I’ve been in Vans. Happy thus far.

Agreed. The thing is though I'd buy these, be stoked for a day then just want to skate authentic pros/classics again. Last time I was at my local I saw the look book for the upcoming stuff and there were these all black authentic in leather coming out. I fucking want five pairs of those. They used to have them or I believe they were called the Decons.

The exp slips are $40 something on tactics. Who is gonna try em?

Lookdown factor is so bad that I don't think I could do it even for $42

Why when you can get Chimas at that price?

Because they’re cup sole?

Tempted but not a fan of that color way. May do it and run them as house/regular shoes.

Someone take my wallet away, just purchased them.

I'm curious to hear about them. I should take the plunge too at $25 but I just bought some shit this past week and I need to calm down.

If it means anything a random video popped up on YouTube with a kid skating this for the first day.

yep, this too

[close]

So it isn’t bad. I’m honestly more concerned about the mesh. They do look more like chillers.

Just got them. I’m usually a 9.5 and I got them in that size. They fit a bit tight and look a little funny on foot (May be due to the color I got them.

Will update with further wear

Wondering if anyone has skated the Rowley classics lately or has any in depth info on them. I want to grab a pair but don’t know if the general consensus on them was feasible for the price. I love half cabs and rowans for reference. But I do want a cupsole if these are even considered cup? lol anyways should I just grab some AVE’s and save some time or give the Rowleys a spin? Thanks

Nope, not cupsole at all. The Rowley Rapidweld shoe that skateshops had a few months ago was "waffle cup"... so half way between vulc and cup.

These look to be the Vans Classics vulc build, no modern cushy insole or duracap or anything. I had a white leather with gumsole pair of the same build a couple months ago, skated them for one and a half months and enjoyed them. Not a ton of padding under foot, but I wasn't skating anything huge. I wouldn't say they fell apart by any means, I could have kept skating them but got kinda bored and switched up to some cupsoles recently.

I loved these shoes when they first came out, and picked up two more pairs a few years back at a Vans outlet.

On my second pair now, and the insole is thin, as is the sole, feels thinner than the current Vans slip-on pros I usually wear.

The heel cup is stiff, nice minimal ankle cushioning, and the most cushion is in the fat tongue. The material stretches out a bit so maybe size down a half size. But a nice, moccasin-y thin sole shoe, if you like board feel.

Yeah fuck the rowleys I was talking about for $80 thanks cuck and stets for the breakdown! Did myself, my feet, and my wallet a favor and scooped another pair of rowans for $56 shipped.

Does anyone know if vans plans on releasing anymore of the aa authentic highs in the navy? Was kinda on the fence about them at first but kinda want to them a try.

aside from the DC legacy, this is the worst skate shoe I’ve ever had. this color is sick though.
This has me cracking up, what exactly does Black Flag have to do with measuring your dick starting behind ya nuts?

Skateboarding is nothing but a game to find the right fits to appear like you're a proportional human being instead of a midget or a giant.

Per the Slap forum rumor mill... another Black Canvas w/ White Sole is coming.

I really want those AA authentics for work. I always wear all black authentics or slips anyways. However you wouldn’t catch me dead wearing them with shorts.

Most of all their other new silhouettes look weird on the web but pretty cool in person or on the right person. I used to hate those slip ons with the strap but they look good in person.

I won some of those in a Damn Am contest back in like 2002. They squeaked when I walked and I blew through the bottom of the sole in what was for me, record time. I don't miss them one bit!

you got a bum pair! The only tougher vans shoes I’ve owned were the Rowley shams which were essentially a bullet proof half cab on a cupsole, I’d actually champion more for them to make a comeback but I think I’m in the minority there. The XLT at least has a bit of a cult following.

If we're pining for a revamped marshmallow it might as well be Rowley Shams instead.

I fucking loved my shams.
Bulletproof they were not. I’m not sure if I’ve ever had a shoe disintegrate faster.

i have the classics but those pros go off. usually dont do black and blue but wouldnt mind these as chillers

I looked for them after a user here recommended them but I couldn't actually find any in my size in stock anywhere. I got the impression that they weren't making skateable versions currently. They have the lifestyle versions out still so hopefully they put either the 2 or the original back in the line. The same part of me that wants to try Legacy Slims wants to try the Ultra Range Pros.
