Three new Vans Pro Skate shoes have arrived recently, with all of them offering a reprisal of sorts from the bold pink Kyle Walker Pro we saw not so long ago! The only burgundy shoe of the new arrivals, and we must say one of the nicest to arrive here so far this season, is this Slip-On Pro, coming in Port Royal/Gum.
Just as we saw with the two navy Vans before it, the shoe features a suede and textile construction. The former features on the front and heel, providing excellent durability and support, and the latter features on the quarter, providing good flexibility and breathability. A small Vans label features on the lateral side in white/black, providing a subtle pop of colour on the otherwise muted upper. All that sits atop a rich gum sole, giving the shoe a very classic vibe.
UltracushHD sockliners have been utilised to great effect, providing the best impact protection and overall comfort that Vans can offer to let you skate for long periods of time. Boardfeel isn't sacrificed, though, thanks to the vulcanized construction of the outsole that brings the foot closer to the board, and the iconic waffle otusole pattern provides excellent grip. finally, durability is maximised by the DURACAP overlays that wrap around the front of the midsole - quite the shoe, it muts be said.
We also have a host of other Vans Pro Skate models, including the Old Skool, Chima Ferguson Pro, Era Pro, AVE Rapidweld, Half-Cab, Kyle Walker Pro and Tony Trujillo Pro.
