Today, OTW by Vans announces the upcoming release of the OTW Old Skool 36 Trail Vibram, an innovative evolution of the previously released OTW Vibram models, including the Half Cab Vibram and the Speed Vibram. This new edition reinterprets the classic Old Skool 36 skate silhouette with a focus on trail performance and outdoor utility.


The OTW Old Skool 36 features Vans’ first-ever custom Vibram outsole and midsole. The rugged rubber outsole showcases Vans' iconic checkerboard pattern, while the EVA (ethylene vinyl acetate) midsole, accented with a stylish foxing stripe, delivers exceptional cushioning and lightweight tread. Together, they ensure high traction and superior comfort across various terrains.


The shoe’s upper is constructed from Dyneema®, known as the world’s strongest fiber™, offering lightweight breathability and exceptional durability for long-lasting support. Additionally, the magnetic Fidlock lacing system allows for quick and easy on-and-off functionality while ensuring a snug fit.

The OTW Old Skool 36 Trail Vibram will retail for $165 USD and will be available starting November 1st on otw.vans.com in both Olive and White/Grey colorways.
