Why We Like The Vans Sk8-Hi VR3 Shoe

We like how the Sk8-Hi VR3 Shoe exudes the iconic 1966 Vans style while incorporating sustainable materials in 2023.

This skater sneaker is a vintage Vans with enhanced eco-friendliness, crafted from 100% organic cotton canvas, leather certified by the Leather Working Group, a biobased foam footbed, and a new waffle outsole that features responsibly sourced natural rubber.

By choosing this shoe, we reduce our environmental impact without compromising on style.
