About this product

The Vans LX Old Skool 36 "Gemstone Mushroom" elevates the 1977 skate icon with turquoise gemstone embellishments and premium Mushroom brown materials.

Design & Inspiration

Mushroom brown canvas base with rich brown suede overlays creates earthy foundation. Bright white contrast stitching highlights classic Old Skool panel layout. Metallic silver cracked finish on signature Sidestripe adds textured shimmer. Turquoise-style gemstone studs and crystal rhinestone accents placed strategically on toe box, heel, and tongue for jewelry-inspired luxury. Argyle-patterned flat laces add refined detail. Raised sidewalls with premium foxing tape maintain heritage construction. Sola ADC foam insole provides all-day comfort using 30% biobased PU foam partially derived from plants with USDA Certified Biobased designation. Signature Waffle rubber outsole ensures reliable grip since 1966.
