This season, Vans is excited to partner with Rassvet, a Russian skate company started by Tolia Titaev and Gosha Rubchinsky to show their local skate scene to the world. Part of a fashion-driven collection based on Rassvet’s elevated aesthetic and inspired by Moscow’s unique skate culture, the Vans x Rassvet Skate Bold uses a premium combination of black, off-whites, and gold highlights with a heritage checkerboard print on the sockliners.
Featuring DURACAP™ reinforced underlays for durability, the SICKSTICK™ rubber compound to deliver more grip and boardfeel, and POPCUSH™ energy return sockliners for superior cushioning and impact protection, the Rassvet Skate Bold is the perfect blend of upgraded performance benefits and standout styling.
