The Skate Old Skool is ready for work.

It’s no secret that Elijah Berle is an industrious skater. Dominating ledges, stair sets, handrails, and even the odd pool, we only need to look at his recent Rodeo Technology part to see what a versatile and unshakeable skater he is (30 seconds in features the best tail kickflip you’ll see this year). Now, five years after landing his first signature shoe with Vans, he’s turned his attention to the Skate Old Skool, elevating the legendary silhouette to match his intensity and work ethic.

Decked out in a “Vintage Blue” colourway with a perfectly beat-up, “worn-in” vibe, this shoe screams classic workwear grit. Black suede overlays bring durability, while custom-printed footbeds add flair underneath. But it’s not just about the looks—it’s built to handle the grind (yes, pun intended).

PopCush™ insoles soak up impact like a sponge, and the reinforced upper is tough enough to outlast your longest sessions. The cherry on top? SickStick™ rubber outsoles, delivering sticky grip and killer board feel. It’s everything you’d want in a shoe that works as hard as you do.

Alongside the Skate Old Skool rework comes a no-nonsense capsule collection featuring a trucker cap with an eagle insignia and a mechanic-style logo tee. Shop them all right here, and check out the Elijah Berle Vans Skate Old Skool in action on the man himself below:
