Vans Premium Classics: A premium collection of Vans’ iconic Classics reconsidered through the lens of form, fit and feel by way of elevated design, modern construction and enhanced comfort. Style 44 was enthusiastically adopted by skaters in the ’70s who noticed the legendary durability of its iconic patterned outsole. Due to its unique thickness, the sole lasted longer and its patterned design provided grip for greater board control. The Authentic Reissue 44 reintroduces the heel strip stitch found on the handcrafted archival designs and higher glossed sidewalls. Specifications: Heritage low-top shoe 8 oz.
