The Sk8-Hi Zip T.O. MTE CA of the Vans California Collection is constructed with a Scotchgard pig suede upper, a weatherproof material that is only the start to a fully season-ready piece of Vans footwear. The synthetic fleece lining provides warmth that virtually spills out over the tongue as a removable Sherpa fleece lining, while heavy-gauge, waxed canvas quarter panels make for robust lateral protection. With a strobel retain lasting board, both, stability and flexibility are constructed right into the bones of this Sk8-Hi Zip CA, while the MTE lug outsole treads lightly or, when needed, not so lightly through the rougher elements. Waxed, round cotton laces and the characteristic zipper along the heel of this heritage Vans silhouette complete the package.
