The Sk8-Hi was introduced in 1978 as Style 38, and showcased the now-iconic Vans Sidestripe on a new, innovative high top silhouette. As only the second model featuring the recognizable marker formerly known as the “jazz stripe,” the Sk8-Hi brought a whole new look to the Vans family. Building on that first legendary high top, the Tartan Daze Sk8-Hi features mixed leather, denim, and acid-dyed textile uppers. This lace-up shoe also includes contrast stitching, stud details, supportive padded collars, and signature rubber waffle outsoles.
