Introducing the Lizzie - the inaugural skate shoe designed by Lizzie Armanto, which offers a fresh take on common skate shoe issues with an eco-friendly and more durable solution for all skateboarders.
The Lizzie boasts a unique and sustainable design that addresses common problems in skate shoes, such as an improved fit, increased durability, and environmentally conscious materials. Featuring a narrower fit, VR3Cush™ cushioning, a new 3D DURACAP™ toe, micro-waffle tread, and SickStick™ rubber, this signature skate shoe is a game-changer. It's the first skate shoe created by a female in 20 years and is sure to go down in history.
Moreover, Vans has set ambitious sustainability goals, which are reflected in the Lizzie's design. To receive the VR3 Checkerboard globe logo, the shoe must contain at least 30% recycled, renewable, or regenerative materials. Inclusivity was also a crucial factor in the creation of the Lizzie, which has a vulcanized construction, a higher outsole cup, and rounded edges that provide a stable and comfortable fit for all skateboarders.
- ENVIRONMENTALLY FRIENDLY MATERIALS: The all-new upper (the quarter panel, tongue, and lining) is made from 100% organic renewable cottons that regrow as they are used, and the addition of chrome-free suede offers more sustainable durability.
- UNIVERSAL FIT: This all-new performance fit was designed by Lizzie to meet the needs of a wider range of skateboarders. The stretch tongue straps offer added lockdown and tongue stabilization.
- BOARDFEEL AND IMPACT PROTECTION: Made using VR3Cush™ foam, a 70% biobased PU foam (Fates™) partially sourced from plants per the ASTM D6866-16 reference standard, The Lizzie offers a new, lower-profile sockliner that provides the boardfeel and impact protection you demand.
- LEGENDARY GRIP: A brand-new bottom plate design utilizes forefoot flex grooves, zonal waffle lugs for durability and support, plus SickStick™ rubber (a compound made of 60% natural rubber harvested from trees) paired with a micro-waffle pattern, and gives you the grip you expect from Vans with a broken-in feel right out of the box.
- DURABILITY: DURACAP™ reinforcements in high-wear areas, plus a thicker 3D molded DURACAP™ toe cap, provide extra durability.
