Despite first turning pro a whopping 12 years ago and his longstanding relationship with the brand, Curren Caples has only just been given his first pro shoe for Vans - which seems pretty mental to us. However, Curren has made sure it was worth the wait, delivering that same effortless elegance that he provides on the board with a timeless silhouette inspired by some of Vans' most iconic models. Have a read below to find out everything you need to know about the new Vans Curren Caples pro shoe!

Taking design cues from some of Vans' most popular models, the Vans Curren Caples shoe may look slightly familiar at first glance but Curren has made it his own with a load of tasteful flourishes. Opting for a sleek aesthetic, Curren has kept the branding to a tasteful minimum with a subtle Sidestripe alongside a custom Curren Caples tongue graphic. Likewise, he's also kept things clean with two stylish yet unconventional colourways - Grey and Dark Brown - making a nice change from all the usual Black and White colourways.

In keeping with some of Vans' most popular models, the Vans Curren Caples skate shoe features a lightweight vulcanised construction for that signature boardfeel while also incorporating some of Vans' more recent scientific developments. Complete with a PopCush insole for comfort and impact protection and a SickStick rubber outsole featuring an all-new reverse Waffle tread for long-lasting durability and grip, the Vans Curren Caples shoe may look simple but it punches well above its weight in terms of tech.

However, it's not just the sole that's packed with a load of the latest tech as the upper has been similarly beefed up to withstand Curren's all-terrain wizardry. We all know that durability is one of the most important factors in a skate shoe and the Vans Curren Caples gives this box a big old tick with their signature Duracap rubber underlay reinforcing the toe-box to prevent blow-outs alongside two layers of foxing tape for even more durability where it's needed most.

That's enough chit-chat though. Head to the shop to browse the full range of Vans skate shoes and buy now from CSC. Or, find out more about the latest skate product on the CSC Blog. Safe.
