Early 2000s Nostalgia Gets a Remake with Today’s Skate Tech

The Skate Mixxa is heavily influenced by a time when skateboarding welcomed some of the most bold and expressive footwear. Pulling design references from the Vans archives to create a new reminiscent skate silhouette that features oversized ollie panels combined with DURACAP underlays that add a splash of color while providing ultimate durability, this mixed-material shoe brings today’s progressive technology back to the 2000s.

• GRIP MEETS COMFORT - Our proprietary SickStick™ gum rubber compound provides longevity and best-in-class grip, and is equipped with an EVA sockliner for premium underfoot comfort.

• CUPSOLE DESIGN - The stitched-on cupsole and protective T-toe design offer additional forefoot coverage where you need it most.

• DURABILITY YOU CAN SEE - Exposed DURACAP™ underlays add a hit of color alongside an oversized ollie panel, providing increased upper durability.

• RETRO SILHOUETTE - Heavily influenced by the early 2000s style nostalgia, the Mixxa boasts wide laces, a puffy collar and padded tongue, and a bold colorblocked outsole with retro branding. The mixed material upper is made of leather, synthetic, and breathable mesh to match the bold aesthetic.
