The Sk8-Hi was a game changer as the first high-top skate shoe to break onto the scene. With a padded collar for ankle support and reinforced toe caps, it remains a style like no other. The Sk8-Hi was our second model to showcase the Vans Sidestripe, and its bold design has remained iconic ever since. Wide width sizes provide a spacious platform by a bottom width that is 5mm wider and a ball girth that is 10mm longer than our regular width sizes.
