Vans Style 113 Pro USA ArcAd

 

 Having announced their new elevated ArcAd line back in May of this year with an inaugural release, Vans have quickly followed up with the all-new Style 113 Pro USA ArcAd - the first made in USA Vans performance skate shoe in over 20 years.

Limited to only 700 individually-numbered pairs worldwide, the release sees two premium iterations of the Style 113: a white/off-white mix sitting on top of a black sole unit, and a black suede and leather combination on the upper with a stark white sole. In paying homage to both heritage and innovation, the Style 113 Pro USA ArcAd has been handcrafted from a combination of modern machinery and traditional craftwork to produce a shoe maintains Vans classic look and holds all the modern functionality found in Vans signature pro models. To offer a truly unique shoe to the wearer, each pair has been constructed from the highest quality materials, with leather liners that have been specially constructed to stretch, form and flex to the shape of your foot over time for a personalised fit. The designs are capped off with a “Made in USA” woven label on the tongue, flat waxed canvas laces, each individually numbered and US manufactured stamp on the inner liner.

 The Vans Pro Skate Style 113 Pro USA ArcAd is available now at select Vans Pro Skate accounts worldwide including Slam City Skates.
