VANS SKATE CLASSICS - SKATE ERA WAFFLECUP™ (BLACK/WHITE)
Fifty years ago, the Era changed everything as the first shoe ever designed specifically for skateboarding. Today, that legacy of progression continues with the Skate Era WaffleCup™. This isn't just a classic silhouette; it’s a modernized powerhouse featuring Vans' most advanced outsole technology to date.
The newly redesigned WaffleCup™ construction solves the age-old skater’s dilemma by combining the rigid support and durability of a cupsole with the legendary boardfeel and flexibility of a traditional vulcanized shoe. It’s the best of both worlds, built for the next generation of high-impact skating.

Key Features
- WaffleCup™ Technology: The ultimate hybrid outsole. It provides the "locked-in" arch support and heel protection of a cupsole while maintaining the forefoot flex and "vulc-like" boardfeel you need for technical flip tricks.
- PopCush™ Cushioning: Vans’ finest standard foam insole. PopCush™ snaps back and won’t pack out, providing superior impact protection and custom energy return for long sessions at the park.
- DURACAP™ Reinforcement: Reinforced rubber underlays in high-wear areas (like the toe box) ensure your shoes stand up to the most aggressive grip tape abrasion.
- SickStick™ Rubber Compound: A proprietary gum rubber formula that delivers increased grip and maximum durability, keeping you stuck to your board from day one.
- Internal Tongue Straps: Locked-in fit for better control. The internal straps keep the tongue centered and provide a snug, secure feel during high-speed maneuvers.
Performance Note: If you love the look of the OG Era but need more support for jumping down stairs or skating transition, the WaffleCup™ version is designed specifically for you.
