Vans Chukka Low (Alex Olson)

Sure Half Cabs and Authentics get the most buzz, but when it comes to actual skating shoes, the Chukka Low is the go-to for the Vans skate team. Taking design cues from the Authentic and the Chukka Boot, Vans added on some vital tech features making it the ultimate skate sneaker. This metallic leather silver colorway is rider Alex Olson’s signature colorway, and is available at Vans skate retailers around the country.
