Vans BMX Slip-On Shoes

Vans BMX Slip-On Shoes Courage Adams in Black Elephant. Designed in partnership with the newest member to join Vans’ global BMX team; Courage Adams. These signature Vans BMX Slip-Ons are crafted from premium leather and embossed with elephant skin texture for a luxe-like take on the archived classic. Featuring Vans’ hybrid cupsole, vulcanised WaffleCup BMX technology and precision engineering DURACAP reinforcements, this streamlined slip-on is also styled with an integrated PopCush sockliner for increased cushioned support. A grippy, translucent underfoot tread delivers maximised pedal feel and performativity from first wear, whilst the Vans Original Waffle Compound helps enhance the silhouette’s structural support to suit any demanding setting. Tonal rubber foxing is mirrored by auxetic wrap-around trims across the bumper and forefoot, whilst a colour matched embroidered Vans flag label is woven across each exterior mid foot to complement the side-wall elasticated tongue. Custom ‘Courage Adams’ insoles are paired with artistic elephant/scale logo detailings printed across the sole of each foot in honour of the rider’s unique aesthetic and his first collaborative design in partnership with Vans.

Known as the ‘king of manuals’ and famed for his energetic ride style, team rider Courage Adams has continued to inspire many since he first started riding back when he was 12. Turning pro at aged 16 and backed by his first place placements in competitions such as Back Yard Jam, FISE Montpellier and Arnette O’Marisquino, Adams finds himself the latest member to be added to Vans’ ever growing roster of influential BMX pioneers.
