Transverse arch bridges distribute weight across midfoot

Vans have brought back the iconic Rowley XLT from their archives, sticking with all that original style and chunky padding the Rowley was known for.

A mix of sythentic nubuck and suede create a sturdy and durable upper, with doubled overlays around the toebox and halfway up the lace eyelets adding way more protection to those key areas. All finished up with a clean black colourway highlighted with some chili pepper red accents adding a hit of colour.

Underfoot is the cut and buff EVA midsole with a custom stabilising Rowley clip in the heel and of course that classic Vans Waffle rubber outsole giving plenty of grip and traction.

Pressure distributing nodes reduce peak loads on sensitive foot areas.
