They say that fashion trends always cycle back, and whatever was cool 20 years ago becomes trendy again. Vans is proving us right with this chunky Geoff Rowley pro-model shoe that flashes us back to the early 2000s. The Vans Rowley XLT is a verbatim replica of its predecessor, paying homage to the Y2K era. The technology stays faithful to 2001, featuring a sturdy synthetic nubuck upper, a lightweight cut & buff EVA midsole, a personalized Rowley heel clip for stability, and ample upper cushioning.
