First known as the Vans #36, the Old Skool debuted in 1977 with a unique new addition: a random doodle drawn by founder Paul Van Doren, and originally referred to as the jazz stripe.
Today, the famous Vans Sidestripe has become the unmistakable-and instantly recognizable-hallmark of the Vans brand.
Constructed with durable suede and canvas uppers featuring a vibrant checkerboard print, the Primary Check Old Skool pays homage to our heritage while ensuring that this low top, lace-up shoe remains as iconic as ever.
It also includes re-enforced toe caps, supportive padded collars, and signature rubber waffle outsoles.
