Vans Unveils the Slip-On Exp Pro Sneakers with a Velcro Strap

Vans' iconic Slip-On sneaker silhouette dates all the way back to 1966 -- recently, the skateboarding label introduces the Slip-On Exp Pro iteration of the model. The latest update features enhanced functionality to deliver performance on a familiar footwear foundation.

The uppers boast the same low-slung structure with a laceless element detailed with a velcro strap across the top of the foot to hold it securely. There is also a Jazz Stripe informed by print on the medial and the lateral side of the model fading away closer to the collar and toebox. The midsole is made from rubber and reaches the lower half of the uppers to provide full protection when performing skate tricks.
