Does this new Vans OTW Trail Pack have anything to do with skateboarding? Well, in fairness, you could say no. But at the same time, yes, of course it does. Even if it’s just because it was inspired by some of skateboarding’s most classic shoes.

These are definitely not being made for skateboarders, but with that said, have you ever seen hiking shoes? Or hiking boots? I mean, they usually aren’t the coolest looking kicks. So maybe this pack offers the best of both worlds?

It’s still a Half Cab… it’s just evolved for new, rockier terrain. Ha! Regardless, the Vans OTW Trail Pack will be available tomorrow, June 18 at vans.com/otw, select Vans retailers and possibly some skateshops.
Again—you ever seen Half Cabs like this before? Exactly. Because they’ve never been built like this before. Love ’em or hate ’em, but I bet Cab is stoked! We’re just here to spread the news. But if you want them, make moves tomorrow.
