The OTW Old Skool 36 Pearlized plays with pearl and crystal accents on a subtly aged upper that echoes the look of a well-loved pair that has evolved over time.

Style 36, introduced in 1977 as the brand’s second skate model, was the first shoe to feature the iconic Sidestripe. In the early ’90s, it was renamed the Old Skool before becoming an essential part of the Vans Classic line.

Signature details such as a higher-gloss sidewall and refined stitching echo this original aesthetic.

The release builds on the most recent — and already sold-out — OTW by Vans x Satoshi Nakamoto Pearlized Old Skool drops.

The Old Skool 36 Pearlized reflects Vans’ premium philosophy: modern comfort features, elevated materials, and a refreshed approach to form and fit that brings classic models into a contemporary context.
