The changing of the seasons has many consumers seeking out new fashions to keep them prepared for the arrival of inclement weather, which is exactly what the Vans + Finisterre UltraRange Hi DL sneakers aim help protect against.
The collection of sneakers includes three styles that are all built with a focus on a weatherproof design, sustainability and functionality. The specific style seen here is based on a hiking boot and is perfect for surf travel thanks to its UltraCush Lite midsole and sock-fit bootie construction, which is further fine-tuned with a seamless interior to prevent rubbing or hotspots.
The Vans + Finisterre UltraRange Hi DL is also crafted with eco-synthetic leather along with recycled polyester to make it a more eco-friendly fashion option.
