Vans x Supercross BMX Era Shoe
$ 79.95
From Skate Shoe to BMX Shoe to Streetwear Staple, with an Emphasis on Comfort
Sizes are in US
The Era was the first shoe designed by skateboarders, for skateboarders, in 1976. Then guess what? We BMXers took it and ran! The Era was perfect for us. An evolution of our original low-top silhouette, the Era placed an emphasis on comfort and style by debuting our famous padded collar. It was also our first shoe to feature the now-iconic Off The Wall heel tab and remains the shoe of choice for BMXers, skaters, surfers, and creatives worldwide.
When Stevie Van Doren approached us about doing a Supercross BMX / Vans® 35-year collaboration, we chose two shoes, and we knew that the Era had to be one of them. Back in the day, we used to go to the Vans® store in Anaheim, Torrance, or Redondo Beach, and since we couldn’t afford to buy a pair, we would buy just one shoe. The right shoe usually wore out first from using it as a brake since side-pull brakes sucked. So sometimes, we’d end up with mismatched shoes. It became a trend in the early '80s among us poor BMXers—to have one shoe Red/Blue/Red and the other Gold/Blue/Gold, or a few other color combos that we could put together. Well, Stevie let me bring that into these ERA Supercross BMX / Vans® with the mismatched tongues. One is Red, one is Blue, and of course, there’s the one Bright Yellow Eyelet by the Supercross BMX "95" logo.
