Both styles use canvas uppers on a vulcanized construction, with rubber sidewalls wrapped in the brand's foxing stripe. The signature waffle outsole, a Vans pattern dating back to 1966, handles traction, and a standard lace-up closure keeps the fit adjustable.The two silhouettes share the same design treatment, so the choice comes down to height. The Era offers the Dodgers look as a low-top, while the Sk8-Hi carries it up to a high-top profile.Click here to view full gallery at Hypebeast
