The crew at Vans are always cooking up new and unique color combos for their classic shoes like the Old Skool that have been apart of their line up for years. Here’s a look at their new “Gum Bumper Old Skool” shoe that is exactly what you would guess from the name of the shoe. They’ve given the shoe a gum bumper on the front while keeping the rest of the outsole white for a unique look that turned out awesome.

The Old Skool is Vans classic shoe that was the first to have the iconic sidestripe that everyone recognizes and has been apart of their line up longer than most of you reading this have been around. The shoe starts out with a low top canvas upper with double stitched for increased strength and a reinforced top cap to help resist the wear and tear up front. You can find padded collars around the ankle for support, comfort and flexibility and the classic waffle pattern on the bottom for plenty of grip on the pedals.

The Gum Bumper Old Skool is currently available in Dress Blues / True White, Black / True White and Glacier Gray / True White color options and sizes of 3.5 all the way up to a 13 in the mens sizes, so they have pretty much everyone covered in sizes. They’re not hard on the bank account either! You can pick these shoes up for $55 in the Vans Webstore now. This style shoe has been a favorite in BMX for years and it undoubtedly will continue into the future.
