OG Sk8-Hi Gore-Tex MTE-3 Shoes
You are Made For The Elements. These are your Vans.
The OG Sk8-Hi Gore-Tex MTE-3 Shoes are all-terrain ready and offer maximum protection from the elements. Built with Vans’ most technically advanced and purpose-built all-weather technology-including GORE-TEX® breathable waterproofing to keep you dry, a heat retaining 3M Thinsulate™ insulation package to keep you warm, and an MTE-3 outsole with the All-Trac rubber compound to keep you on your feet-this uncompromising Sk8-Hi upgrade delivers our most progressive cold weather promises so that nothing stands between you and your next adventure. They are made with suede, canvas, and synthetic uppers.
• MOISTURE MANAGEMENT - Engineered with a breathable waterproof internal bootie that allows moisture to escape while keeping snow and rain out, the GORE-TEX® “GUARANTEED TO KEEP YOU DRY™” promise is trusted in any condition.
• THERMOREGULATION - This 3M Thinsulate™ insulation package is thin, lightweight, and warm. An extremely fine microfibre weave helps to trap air and block heat loss, making for incredibly efficient heat retention while allowing internal moisture to escape.
• TRACTION - The MTE™-3 outsole with All-Trac rubber compound has a dynamic lug tread pattern that provides flexible, true all-weather grip that significantly aides in overall traction on variable terrain. Toe picking treads and a higher toe bumper offer added traction and protection.
• COMFORT AND SUPPORT - Our MTE™-3 triple-density comfort package includes a dual-density UltraCush™ molded EVA footbed with an OrthoLite® topsheet for enhanced comfort and reduced weight-all while supporting a drier, healthier environment inside your shoe.

OrthoLite
Vans’ CMEVA-based OrthoLite low-profile foam sockliner is ultralight and anatomically contoured for quick, responsive cushioning, providing our most natural fit and ride.

3M Thinsulate
The extremely fine microfibers in Thinsulate help to trap air and block body radiant heat loss, making for an incredibly efficient insulation while still allowing internal moisture to escape. A high warmth-tothickness ratio also enables reduced bulk and advanced freedom of movement. In other words, Thinsulate material traps more air in less space, giving your foot more room to breathe.
