Vans Skate Era - Black/Grey | Rebuilt Classics for Modern Performance
Elevate your skate game with the Vans Skate Era in the essential Black/Grey (VN000ECRDE21) colorway. Born in the '70s and refined for today, this isn't just a lifestyle sneaker—it is a fully reinforced skate machine.
The Skate Era takes the iconic low-top silhouette and reconstructs it from the inside out, featuring upgraded materials that provide the durability, grip, and comfort that professional skaters demand.
Top Performance Upgrades
- Ultimate Durability: DURACAP™ reinforced rubber underlays in high-wear areas can withstand the abuse of daily skate sessions.

- Locked-In Fit: Internal tongue straps and a molded heel counter ensure a secure, stable fit for better board control.
- Classic Aesthetic: A premium mix of sturdy suede and canvas uppers offers that timeless "Off The Wall" style with a modern grey-on-black twist.

Why Upgrade to the Skate Series?
While the Vans Era is a legendary casual staple, the Skate Classics version is built specifically for longevity. If you are tired of blowing through canvas shoes, the increased sidewall height and deeper waffle tread on the VN000ECRDE21ensure your gear lasts as long as your ambition.
Pro Tip: The Skate Era fits snugger than the standard version due to the internal tongue straps and PopCush™ insole. If you prefer a loose fit, consider sizing up by a half-size.
