Our take on the Vans Men's Sk8-Hi Classic

The Vans Sk8-Hi is the brand's original high-top skate shoe, built with a padded collar, reinforced toe caps and the Sidestripe on the upper. It is a canvas-and-suede shoe aimed at skaters who want ankle coverage and at anyone after a durable everyday high-top. Against low-top skate shoes it offers more ankle support and protection; against modern cupsole skate shoes it is lighter and more flexible but has a thinner, less cushioned sole. Owners rate it well overall, with the main complaints being break-in time and the flat sole for long walks.

Questions and answers

Is the Sk8-Hi good for actual skateboarding?
Yes. The padded collar, reinforced toe caps and grippy waffle sole are built for skating, and owners report the upper holds up to regular use.
How does the Sk8-Hi compare with the Old Skool?
The Sk8-Hi is the high-top version, so it adds ankle coverage and protection. The Old Skool is a lower, lighter shoe with a similar sole and Sidestripe.
Does the Sk8-Hi run true to size?
It generally fits true to size, though the stiff upper can feel snug at first. People with wide feet often go up half a size.
How long does it take to break in?
Owners commonly report a week or two of wear before the upper softens and the shoe feels comfortable.
Is the Sk8-Hi good for walking all day?
It is fine for casual wear, but the flat, thinly cushioned sole makes it less comfortable for long days on your feet than a cushioned sneaker.
What is the upper made of?
The Sk8-Hi Classic uses a canvas and suede upper with the Vans Sidestripe and a waffle rubber outsole.

At ASOS, for $52.20, 35% under what the other stores charge, as of our latest check.
