The Vans Era, originally called the Vans #95, was brought to life in 1976 and made popular by the legendary Z-Boys of Santa Monica. It was the first shoe to include our famous padded collar, and today, it remains a favorite for creative people worldwide. Featuring sturdy canvas uppers and old school gum-colored sidewalls, the Gum Era energizes our timeless low top silhouette with effortless style. In addition to the supportive collar, this classic lace-up shoe comes equipped with metal eyelets and signature rubber waffle outsoles.
