Checked.

>non skating life ~ 2.5 years if you just go to school or something

>life of a skated vans shoe ~ couple kickflips.
>>
get a pro model if you want to skate in it
just a few dollaros more
>>
You can get like 1-2 years out of them BUT the materials are shit so the rubber will crack and there will be a lot of heel drag. You should definitely invest in a higher quality sneaker. If you're over 18 years old wearing vans is cringe-tier

wearing any sneakers if you're over 18 is cringe-tier

Pro model is way better in all possible ways even if you don't skate.
>>
>>11390999
get the Pro version.

Available in the same colourway, except you have an extra cap across the midsole meaning it doesn't come away as easily, and you get a much comfier inner-sole. Plus the general build quality of the shoe is higher.

Here's my estimate for how long they'll last, up until they start looking noticeably like a hobo's shoes.

Old Skool: 1 – 1.5 years
Old Skool Pro: easily 2 – 3 years

Ok so these are acceptable to wear till you die but Vans aren't?

You guys are fucking ignorant idiots

I am 40 years old and i still wear Vans.
It's ok, you will be fine.
It's just simple sneakers, you can't go wrong with them.

I just don't get it, do you walk around campus strictly in nice button downs, slacks, and oxfords/loafers?

Nobody bats an eye at classic sneakers, and it's almost impossible to find someone who isn't in a T-shirt who isn't wearing vans/cons

just so everyone knows. Opinions like this are held by people who look for any reason to look down on others so that they can feel better about themselves
