Professional skateboarder Tyson Peterson is no stranger to Vans and recently, the duo joins heads to launch and design the new Wayvee collection. The joint capsule features a wide range of skate apparel and a pair of low-cut shoes to elevate the skate experience.
The shoes are complete with a predominantly black design marked with contrasting details of red, green, and yellow. It is wrapped with some clear mesh quarters with breathable elements delivered with the DURACAP toe caps to add more durability. Notable, the shoes have a LuxLiner interior to give wearers a comfortable sock-like fit around the foot. This sits on top of the classic Vans Wafflecup outsoles for a grippy performance and comfortable foundation.
