The Vans Era was the first shoe designed for skateboarders by skateboarders. Introduced in 1976 and originally called the Vans #95, the Era was made popular by the legendary Z-Boys and remains the shoe of choice for skaters, surfers, and creative people worldwide. This season, Vans uplifts the classic Era and energizes this time-honored silhouette with contemporary interpretations. Featuring an allover print, the Leopard Era is made with sturdy textile uppers, metal eyelets, padded collars for support and flexibility, and signature rubber waffle outsoles.
