“The new Stan Smith Vulc takes one of the
most iconic sneakers and
makes it skate-ready with
a durable canvas upper,
recessed eyelets and
a grippy vector traction outsole.
The men's shoes features a subtle drop in
the EVA midsole to make it lighter and
more comfortable to skate in.”
There you go
Stan Smith Vulc White/Royal Blue
so what exactly Vulc is all about?
Vulcanized Sole
(Understanding Skate Shoes by WindWard Board Shop)
“Vulcanized soles will offer the best in
board feel and flexibility thanks to
their gummy, pliable feel.
The downside of a vulc sole is
they lack in heel support due to their super flat shape.
For ground tricks and technical street skating,
vulc soles will excel.
If you are hurling yourself down a 15 stair,
you might want to look into cupsoles.
The process of making a vulc shoe is fairly simple.
The rubber bottom of the shoe is heated,
which creates elasticity and strength, then
adhered to the top part of the shoe.
This process is stronger than traditional glues since
there is nothing but a rubber sole between
you and the skateboard
creating the feeling of
‘better board feel’ that everyone talks about.
Again, the downside is not much support,
and that’s the reason some people prefer cupsoles.”
