Vans Skate Loafer Dark Forest Oil Green

Most loafers never touch a board. This one was built for one. The Vans Skate Loafer takes the classic 1950s creeper that Vans reissued, adds loafer styling, and finishes it in dark forest green crushed velvet – with a vulcanized rubber lug outsole and PopCush cushioning underneath.

The Story

Vans calls it Part Creeper. Part Loafer. Pure Retro Style. The Skate Loafer is their take on the classic 1950s creeper – a reissued slip-on silhouette with loafer styling that keeps the old school look while adding the comfort and durability you need today. Hybrid loafers are everywhere right now, but this one is built the Vans way, on skate construction instead of a dress sole. Low-key enough to blend in, strong enough to hold up.

Construction & Details

• Crushed velvet upper in dark forest green, with a decorative strap across the vamp where the tongue would be
• Slip-on styling with loafer details – no laces to blow out
• Vulcanized rubber lug outsole for grip and board feel
• PopCush cushioning underfoot
• Locked-in fit with skate-ready support
• Subtle 5-checker flag label detail at the collar

Care: wipe the velvet clean with a damp cloth, air dry away from direct heat, and skip the washing machine.
