Classics reconsidered through the lens of form, fit and feel by way of elevated design, modern construction and enhanced comfort. Introduced in 1978 as one of the first high-top skate shoes, Style 38 was a fresh silhouette that instantly made its way into the footwear design canon. The iconic, skinnier Vans Sidestripe™ and eyestays of the original are reintroduced on the SK8-Hi® Reissue 38, along with a higher glossed sidewall.
