![]() The Vans Era is a classic shoe that’s long been a staple in the skate and sneaker communities. But for Anthony Van Elengen’s first signature as a Vans skater, the classic needed an update. Thicker padding and an EVA midsole with Board Feel XD technology transform the original into the AV Era 1.5. The two-tone approach we’re seen an endless number of times is used again, with three colorways currently available on Vans.com. The fourth color-up uses an all brown upper with a gum sole. The others use a white sole, mixing blue and black, pewter and black and a two-tone brown approach. |
