With the new year kicking off strong, it looks like Vans are gracing Bruno Hoffmann with his own signature shoe for 2015! They’ve taken the SK8 Mid Pro and given it a special touch to Bruno’s specifications! Get the full details and check out more photos after the jump!
The Bruno Hoffmann shoe uses the classic SK8 Mid Pro model mid top design, but has been given a fresh update all around. The shoe features a premium suede upper with the classic leather Vans stripe along the side and canvas mesh by the ankles for flexibility, a rubber Duracap toe bumper and upper ollie underlays to help reduce wear and tear and give it some extra reinforcement where the shoe takes the most abuse, the classic Waffle sole and the UltraCush HD sicklier and footbed for comfort!
The Hoffmann SK8 Mid Pro is available in the Vans Webstore for $75 now and should be available through all shops, mail-orders and Vans retailers and stores soon!

“Bruno has been part of the Vans family since 2008 and since then he’s been pushing the envelope like no other. Starting as an all around talented rider, today he is one of the most influential street riders out there and respected worldwide.
Always pushing the limits on what’s possible in technical street riding, Bruno has developed a very unique style on and off his bike. He doesn’t care too much about competitions, nevertheless he still holds the World Champion title in BMX street from 2012 and also owns an X Games Silver Medal.
Bruno has accomplished many things already in his young career and now we would like to introduce his own colorway shoe with Vans. He picked the Sk8 Mid Pro because it has the right feeling to the pedals and also offers ankle support without losing foot mobility. He´s a huge fan of the traditional Vans gum sole color and together with a dark grey main color, the shoe won’t start to look “dirty” too fast. He also picked waxed laces as they are a little more sturdy. Great combo Bruno!
