Vans Caballero High or Half Cabs

Take a trip back to old school to re-discover the shoe that inspired the Half Cab, the Vans Caballero High. As the story goes, Steve Caballero wasn’t content with the ankle on his Vans Caballero High. Armed with a pair of scissors and some duct tape, Cab took the ankle height down a peg, creating not only a more skate-friendly shoe, but a classic sneaker in the process. The Half Cab was born almost 20 years ago. If style is your ambition, then grab these. If sport support is your aim, grab the Half Cabs. It's no surprise that most pros with a pro model shoe have skated the Vans Half Cab at some point in their careers, and because its classic design uses suede uppers on a midtop design and a vulcanized sole construction with Vans waffle grip, this is the ideal shoe for every realm of skateboarding, which Steve himself has mastered.
