There are so many cute design details to love, like mini embroidered rainbows and iridescent stars, holographic heel he tabs, and multicolored Velcro straps.

This is what budding skaters need when trying to hone their skills.
I was a little concerned about keeping the checkboard design clean. Vans recommends hand washing only, so our testers tried to save these for a dry day. They were a timeless, gender-neutral style that was also vegan and appealed equally to non-skaters.

I also like the 'twin' option with the kids (the youngest is still allowed, thankfully).
