Vans Classic Tumble Old Skool History

The Old Skool, or Style Number 36 as it used to be called, is one of the most well-known Vans silhouettes. The model began life as a shoe in 1977, kicking off the use of the “Jazz Stripe” or that trademark that proclaims a shoe is unmistakably Vans. It was the first to don not only the Jazz Stripe but also the first skate footwear to incorporate leather into its construction.

The silhouette was very durable, and its multi-paneled form helped it become famous among skateboarders and BMX riders who used the sneaker as a canvas for their creativity. It became very common to see Old Skool kicks with doodles and every color under the sun from the 80s to the early 90s This mode of self-expression helped the silhouette survive for decades since its release. It also didn’t hurt that the Old Skool became a subject of a series of collaborations with haute couture designer, Marc Jacobs in the mid part of the 90s.

To this day, Old Skool models remain popular and relevant with reissues, updates, and collabs being continuously released in honor of this footwear icon.
