Shops that carry Vans Old Skool
With today's lowest Vans Old Skool priceThe Old Skool was introduced in 1977 as Style 36, the second Vans shoe made specifically for skateboarding and the first with the Sidestripe, a doodle by co-founder Paul Van Doren that Vans also calls the jazz stripe. The suede toe cap was added so the shoe would survive griptape as skating changed through the 1970s and 1980s. Vans lists it today in canvas, suede, leather and the Skate Old Skool and Premium Old Skool versions, in solid colours and in checkerboard, leopard and tie-dye prints.
Sizing: Vans says the Old Skool fits true to size for most designs, and suggests a half or full size up, or the wide option, for wider feet, especially in the tapered version. This hub lists every Old Skool colourway from the shops we track, with sizes in stock and the checked date.

Guide and questions
Which Vans Old Skool colours and prices can I choose from?
Black, brown, white, blue and grey are the main colours to choose from for the Vans Old Skool. There are men's and unisex pairs, kids' options and women's models, with most of the choice in men's and unisex. Choose the category you want before comparing prices so you are looking at the right items.
Which sizes are easier to find, and where should I look?
EU 36, EU 38 and EU 37 are the easiest sizes to find. If you need EU 48 or EU 47, check your size first: those are the scarcest options. Zalando ES has the most choice, followed by Zalando DE. That does not make Zalando ES the cheapest place for everything: the lowest-priced items are accessories at ASOS and Vans, rather than pairs of sneakers.
