You are Made For The Elements™. These are your Vans.

Vans MTE is the byproduct of a lifetime spent outdoors, because we know that the pursuit of your passions isn’t always accompanied by a fair-weather forecast. Rain, sleet, snow, mud, wind—nothing is going to stand between you and your next adventure. In fact, we like to think these all add a bit of flavor to the experience. It’s why we created MTE in the first place.

Activity-inspired and purpose-built, the Sk8-Hi MTE-1 builds upon our legendary high top with MTE-1 architecture so that you can stay protected from the elements with Vans classic styling. Delivering on a new promise of an all-weather shoe, this heritage silhouette features enhanced thermoregulation properties, the new HydroGuard Wrap for moisture management, a lightweight single-density UltraCush™ footbed, and our classic all-conditions rubber in a reverse waffle pattern for traction that keeps you covered from city streets to the uncharted outdoors. Finished with durable water repellent-treated leather uppers, the Sk8-Hi MTE-1 brings an iconic Vans aesthetic to uncompromising cold weather comfort.

Whether you find yourself bagging snowcapped peaks or braving a rain-soaked commute, you can set off with confidence knowing every stitch of your equipment is intentionally placed to provide ultimate versatility. After all, we know it was never about the destination. It’s about the stories you create along your journey.

• TRACTION - The aggressive reverse waffle lug pattern is ready for variable terrain and street performance. The lugged tread pattern features a siped tire-like design for increased traction.
• THERMOREGULATION - The zonal Primaloft® Insulation package uses a high-quality microfiber thermal insulation system to mimic the warmth-providing properties of down, keeping you warm without retaining water.
• MOISTURE MANAGEMENT - The new HydroGuard Wrap provides a splash and puddle guard around the shoe and over the toe, resulting in a reliable, comfortable, breathable water resistant system.
• COMFORT AND PERFORMANCE - A single-density UltraCush™ molded EVA footbed offers enhanced comfort and reduced weight.

James Johnson is not only a lifelong shredder and ongoing contributor to the snowboard community, he’s also an award-winning Tlingit artist and carver. Born and raised in Juneau, Alaska, James belongs to the Tlingit Ch’áak’ Dakl’aweidi [Eagle Killer Whale] Clan, and his strong, traditional native history led him to pursue the Tlingit art form to honor his ancestors through his work. The story and art that James shares for this one-of-a-kind Vans collection is that of the Raven bringing light to the world. In the story, the Raven steals the sun from a box and flies it up through the smoke and darkness to release it into the sky, illuminating the world. The choice of colors for the project represents Tlingit Tináa, which was made of copper, and a symbol of wealth and status. Made with durable suede and canvas uppers, the James Johnson Sk8-Hi also includes supportive padded collars, re-enforced toe caps, and signature rubber waffle outsoles.
