Skate Ave Classic - Sky Blue

Vans Skate Anthony Van Engelen Classic in Sky Blue.

The AVE Classic returns!
It’s a return driven by function, durability, and intent, proof that some shoes deserve a second life.

The Skate AVE Classic is Anthony Van Engelen’s take on the Vans styles he’s always skated. Inspired by staples like the Era, Old Skool, and Slip-On, it keeps things simple with a clean, low-profile build that prioritizes boardfeel and control. As with all of our Skate models, we built it with our vulcanized SickStick™ rubber outsole for perfect grip and boardfeel, PopCush™ insoles for unmatched impact protection, and DuraCap™ underlays for added protection against the wear and tear of griptape.
