First known as the Vans #36, the Old Skool debuted in 1977 with a unique new addition: a random doodle drawn by founder Paul Van Doren, and originally referred to as the “jazz stripe.” Today, the famous Vans Sidestripe has become the unmistakable-and instantly recognizable-hallmark of the Vans brand.Featuring a checkerboard and heart print inspired by the iconic Valentine’s Day candy, the Kids Candy Hearts Old Skool pays homage to our heritage while ensuring that this low top, lace-up shoe remains as iconic as ever. It also includes durable suede and canvas uppers, re-enforced toe caps, supportive padded collars, and signature rubber waffle outsoles.• Vans’ iconic low top, sidestripe shoe • Durable suede and canvas uppers• Checkerboard and candy heart print • Lace-up closure• Re-enforced toe caps• Supportive padded collars• Signature rubber waffle outsoles
