Is the Vans Cruze 3.0 worth it?

At $65 at Vans as of November 3, it is a fair price for a suede skate shoe with a vulcanized sole. It suits skaters and casual wearers who want grip and a clean low-top look.

How does the Cruze 3.0 compare to the Old Skool?

The Cruze 3.0 is a lighter, more skate-focused low-top with a suede and canvas mix. The Old Skool has more padding and a side stripe, but costs more and feels bulkier.

Does the Cruze 3.0 run true to size?

Most buyers find it true to size, but it runs narrow. If you have wide feet, consider going up half a size.

Is the Cruze 3.0 good for skating?

Yes. The vulcanized rubber outsole is abrasion resistant and gives good board feel. The suede upper adds durability where the shoe meets the grip tape.

You get the pair of shoes with laces already fitted. No extra laces or insoles are included.

When is the Cruze 3.0 cheapest?

Vans and retailers discount skate shoes most around back-to-school and end-of-season sales. Watch for drops below the current $65 at Vans as of November 3.
