We love Vans, especially anytime they decide to release an iconic anniversary shoe. Vans are definitely the best Skateboarding Shoes that money can buy.
As both brands share significant milestones in 2016 – Vans’ 50thanniversary and Madrid’s 40th anniversary – Vans takes the opportunity to celebrate the two brands’ storied roots in skateboarding with none other than the classic Sk8-Hi upgraded with modern performance technology built to withstand the wear and tear of skateboarding today.
Originally launched in 1987, the Vans x Madrid Sk8-Hi Pro joins an extended collection of Vans’ 50th Anniversary Pro Classics in honor of heritage and progression. Available in select retailers globally, the Vans x Madrid Sk8-Hi Pro is modernized with performance innovation exclusively designed for skateboarding. With the original reinforced ollie pad and Madrid Flypaper covering the side panels, the revamped Vans x Madrid Sk8-Hi Pro will feature Vans’ supportive ULTRACUSH HD sock liners for resilient cushioning and advanced comfort, combined with exposed DURACAP toe bumpers in high abrasion areas for premium durability.
Known as the original griptape manufacturer and true innovators of skateboarding hard goods, Madrid Skateboards has been constructing skateboard accessories in the USA since 1976, and continues their legacy in Huntington Beach, CA today.
