The Sk8-Hi 138 Decon VR3 SF combines our iconic Vans high top shoe with the Vans Surf SF build to create an upgraded, comfortable lace-up style. Featuring deconstructed suede and canvas uppers, this simplified high top fuses modern and vintage detailing for a twist on this classic heritage style. 

In order to reduce the overall footprint of Vans, our team has set ambitious sustainability goals. Big or small, all of our efforts add up to positive change. VR3 is the Vans commitment to sourcing 100% of our top 4 CO2 impact materials (cotton, leather, rubber and polyester) from Regenerative, Responsibly Sourced Renewable, and/or Recycled sources by 2030.
