New York professional skater Beatrice Domond joins Vans’ roster of collaborators to produce two silhouettes, the Zahba Mid and Skate Style 53. Inspired by the autumn in NYC where the leaves beautifully transition from green to gold, the idea is materialized through the pairs’ predominantly olive palette.
Designed by Domond herself, the upper is built upon a suede base layer with the Zahba Mid’s profile stripes in black leather. VR3Cush foam cushioning is included into the Sickstick rubber midsole to provide maximum comfort, while the outsole also has Impactwaffle cushioning, offering exceptional impact protection.
Features:
- Beatrice Domond Pro Model
- Impactwaffle™: To provide next level impact protection, without sacrificing board feel.
- VR3CUSH™: A flexible dual-density midsole made with at least 50% biobased EVA foam partially derived from plants per ASTM D6866-16 reference standard.
- Sickstick™: The Zahba™ rubber cup-sole features a zonal tread design to provide enhanced grip and durability, with a reversed waffle tread pattern in the heel to increase the longevity of the shoe. This outsole contains at least 55% responsibly sourced natural rubber obtained from sources that follow proven sustainable practices with the intention of reducing impacts on the planet.
- Duracap™: A reinforced toecap for increased durability and added protection.
- Refined Fit: Low profile, easy to wear skate shoe with a 98% recycled foam sock liner that adds additional comfort.
- Uppers: Materials include durable suede panels in high-wear areas and lightweight athletic-inspired mesh that is breathable and long-lasting.
