It was originally drawn by Paul Van Doren as a doodle, which is a decent reminder that the most recognisable things in footwear are rarely the most engineered. Nearly fifty years on it is still the shape most people picture when they hear the brand.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWhy it is the one to buy\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOf the three classic Vans silhouettes, the Old Skool is the one we recommend most often, and the reason is durability rather than looks.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe suede toe cap and side panels are the difference. Canvas scuffs and eventually splits at the flex point; suede takes that abuse far better. It was added for skaters wearing through shoes in a week, and it means the Old Skool simply lasts longer than an \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.behindthepines.eu\/collections\/vans-authentic\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAuthentic\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e in normal use.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEverything else is the same classic construction: flat vulcanised sole, no drop, no cushioning stack.
