Vans Got This Biało-czarny plecak ze wzorem w szachownicę review

You should definitely level up your style game with these baddies if you...

• want to add an styslih all-weather pair to your collection.
• are looking for all-rounder boots that make your feet feel safe and stable.
• are looking for something fairly pliable that keeps your feet locked down.

If you love Vans and you're looking for a breathable and suitable pair for your adventures on the skate, forget about this one and have a look at the Vans Bold Ni EU 42 Black True White. Additionally, it's a low-top kick, so you will definitely love it if you're all about ankle mobility.

If you hate when shoes make you feel like you can't lift your feet from the floor, we are convinced that this model is definitely not what you're looking for. We think that the Vans Sk8-Hi is another stylish high top that might be spot on if you're not looking for something that can protect your feet from the elements.

In order to protect you from the stones or some other (light) debris that you might find around town, this shoe's heel stack is just about the same as the average, which is not very thick.

Animal is... Where does all its weight go? They could've used some more material here.

In the forefoot, these baddies are actually higher than average. With its 20.2 mm forefoot stack, they manifested their inner hiker soul!

The Vans Sk8-Hi MTE 2 levels up the protection game! I mean, you need to focus on being happy and having fun when you're out with friends, not on dodging every single pebble! Isn't that right?

The difference between both stacks heights is not big at all, so the drop isn't either. Based on our measurements, it's lower than average at 8.2 mm.

Some people love it when their heels are elevated, but others prefer an experience that is closer to the ground. With this pair, it's neither one nor the other. It felt pretty balanced to us!

Even though you might instantly link Vans with skating (which we do, too), let's not forget that this pair's design comes from hiking shoes, and that its main purpose is to keep you warm and comfy when bad weather makes a surprise attack.

Normally, shoes have a thick or thin layer of foam underfoot, but there are some pairs that have two. This is the case of the Sk8-Hi MTE 2, which has what's called secondary foam. This extra piece is closer to the foot.

At 15.4 HA, it's way softer than average! More specifically, 46%! This means your feet will be comfortably held in every landing.

Even though this score is quite low, we didn't feel like our feet were sinking down there. The foam might be soft, but don't forget the outsole material is quite thick!

That's a pretty good duo, Vans, we see you!

We measure the insole thickness (both layers included) with our caliper at 13.3 mm!

Trust us on this one: the higher the score, the happier the feet! After all, it makes the shoe more comfortable.

The Safety First motto is back!

Our caliper measured the widest part of the toebox at 102.3 mm, which is a real lot!!

Once again, a wide platform translates into safe landings, but... just by looking at the picture we can tell that it's not that spacious towards the cap toe.

A true knight saves everyone equally, isn't that so? Will wide feet users have a happily ever after ending?

Well... we don't think so.

This shoe felt great in our average size feet, but it's true that the testers among us who had wider feet felt it was constraining at the tip.

Even though the toebox at its widest part is wider than usual, at the big toe it's not that spacious. We measured it with our caliper at 74.6 mm.

So, even though this pair is quite roomy in the midfoot, its front and back parts say otherwise. Thus, wide foot users might feel uncomfortable. If you want a chunky pair which is suitable for wide feet, we recommend the New Balance 574 (el producto Vans Ua Comfycush Authentic EU 37 Black True White!).

As we can see in the video below, you can forget about wobbly ankles!

The sole and midsole might be soft in these big boys, but the upper materials are not! They made sure our feet didn't move from their spot, and we didn't feel unsteady at all.

Nothing like some good old high-top kicks vans 40th anniversary qee!

In our lab, we bent and squeezed this shoe from one side to the other as if it were a Rubik's cube.

And once again, we were pretty surprised. It was so pliable that we had to give it a 2 out of 5 on our torsional rigidity test! The materials and the sole accompanied our hand moves, which is something that we also felt when we went for our daily strolls.

Even though we cannot deny these are some big pals, they bend with your feet just right when you're walking. This is something that we really, really like, as it makes having them on for hours easier.

Loving how Vans combined flexibility and style here! It's time to go for a show-off-your-new-killers walk around town!

As the whole structure is quite flexible, this could translate into instability, but we didn't feel like that at all. When we pinched and pushed and squeezed the heel counter non-stop, it just gave in quite easily, earning a 2 out 5 in our heel counter stiffness test.

Nevertheless, we cannot forget this is a high top shoe. Even if it's generally soft, you can lace it up to the top and make your ankles stay where they should. In this case, pliability doesn't equal a lack of ankle support, just a lack of blisters!

Knights are supposed to make you feel safe, right? And the Vans Sk8-Hi MTE 2 takes the knight code very seriously!

We measured the midsole width in the forefoot using our caliper at 107.7 mm, which only adds up to the great stability this pair was already giving us! As we were saying before, despite being flexible, this big platform makes sure our landings are safe.

Most likely to compensate for the pliability of the heel counter, the width of the midsole in the heel is lower than average.

In other words, even though the heel counter is flexible, the platform is narrower than average. This means your heels won't have too much room to move around and make you feel unsteady.

Even though this Vans pair is pretty chunky, we were surprised by how it followed our feet moves smoothly.

In the video, you can clearly see how the forefoot bends right where it's needed. To put our feelings into numbers, we took our knight to our lab and we used a force gauge to bend it to a 90-degree angle. Its score was 20.1N, which is pretty close to the average.

Autentiske triplesorte sneakers fra Vans Classic?

But just when we're talking about weight. There's no way this pair could run as fast! When we put it on, we already felt all its weight. It would make our feet stick to the ground, so we were TERRIFIED to check the score of our scale.

Yep, bad news. With its 19.9 oz (564.0 g) in a men's US size 9, of course we were feeling dragged down when we were walking around town! It's way heavier than average!

But ah well, it's something we expected, as it's not only a chunky boy, but also a high-top. As this type of shoe has more materials, it will pretty much always be heavier than low Vans UA SK8Hi MTE.

If you want some big pals that don't feel heavy on foot, check the New Balance 574 out.

Just by having a look at these big boys, your brain will most likely go: "If it's hot, DON'T!". Yeah, we totally understand! But hey, didn't you know appearances can be deceptive?

We definitely can't say this shoe lets the air go in and out like its Old Skool pal, but it's not as bad as we thought.

See, it does let some smoke out... Kinda. In this video we're comparing it with the Reebok Classic Leather (on the right), which is clearly losing this battle!

We also checked for perforations using a bright light. Did you see any? Because we didn't either!

So we already know that its material is gonna be densely woven. Let's see what our microscope says!

Not a single ventilation hole, but we're not surprised. Check these two close-ups of the black and beige parts. Nothing is coming through these materials!

It's just like an armour!

So, all in all, we've decided that it deserves a 3 out of 5 in our breathability test. Even though this shoe could fight in the Crusades with all that protection, it does let out some air.

Still, it is not suitable for summer. Our feet felt super toasty, and even though it looks really cool... we had to save it for colder months!

One of the key points of this pair is its ability to fight bad weather with all its might!

Holding its banner high, just like its top, your feet will be protected from the elements. Featuring the brand's HydroGuard waterproof protection, these kicks will make sure you can go and have fun with your friends around town no matter what. Puddles? Easy. Rain? Peasy. Snow? Lemon. Sleet? Squeezy.

But there's more!

The zonal Primaloft insulation of this shoe uses a high-quality microfiber that keeps your feet warm even when winter is not coming anymore... because it's already here! This system gives extra points to the overall breathability of the MTE-2, as it does not retain internal moisture.

Could you see the silver part of this shoe's upper in the video? Yeah? That's its reflective lining, which makes sure your feet won't freeze with its 100 grams of insulation.

Bad weather, begone!

These kicks are fire and... may we say that in this case it's okay to fight fire with fire?

Weapons, on! We took our butane torch and burned its upper materials for a few seconds to see if they were authentic. Then, we started attacking the burnt parts with our scratch awl.

This sounds rough, we know... But we did mention a Crusade, right? This pair was a born fighter!

We just go further and beyond to give you the most detailed and objective reviews. So, this time, it turns out the suede parts are real, but the white jazz stripe is synthetic/fake.

Once we had finished this test, we did regret a little bit saying that this fighter's got an armour.

But don't get us wrong, we're not trying to say it is a flimsy pair! After all, it's built to withstand the elements. Yet, sneakers with an authentic suede upper are usually very durable, so what happened here?

The white rubber protection literally flies away once our Dremel touches it! The black suede part doesn't do very well either. The damage was quite significant, so we've given this soldier a 3 out 5. We can't say it's weak, but it's definitely not the strongest sneaker warrior out there!

If you want a pair made of real suede that is actually resistant, have a look at the Adidas Gazelle. It's also stylish as heck!

Another lost fight in the heel!

We moved all the way there, but we kept our Dremel at a consistent speed (5K RPM) and force (3.2N). We never change these parameters, as we want every single shoe to have a fair and equal try at every test.

Once again, the damage was quite significant, so... we've had to give it a 2 out 5 in heel padding durability! Still, we gotta say that this is a very delicate part, especially in sneakers.

When we checked the Vans Sk8-Hi MTE 2's outsole hardness, we realised this shoe might have lost a couple of battles, but not the war!

Its rugged and massive outsole is here as its secret weapon. With a durometer measurement of 90.1 HC, we can tell you confidently that it can fight fiercely!

After all, this model is inspired in hiking shoes, so we did expect it to be quite tough!

It looks like this pair won't stop surprising us.

vans vault court lo lx x taka hayashi normally the hardness of rubber and its longevity are correlated? Because we did say normally, though. Is the Sk8-Hi MTE 2 the exception that proves the rule?

During the long 22-second drilling session, we did see the rubber putting up a fight at the beginning. But then... it looks like it gave up! Its aggressive lugs are there to protect your feet, but with a damage of 2.0 mm, we can't say it's the knight in shining armour your feet were expecting!

This shoe's contradiction is very similar to the Adidas Samba's - an outsole with poor durability but thicker than average. So... one thing compensates for another, right Vans?

This score is pretty brutal, not gonna lie. Actually, it's the highest we've seen so far in sneakers! So, don't worry if its durability was not that good. With that thickness, these baddies will definitely be your partners in crime for a while!

Did you think they were done with being cool? No way on Earth!

But, wait. We won't say anything yet. Let's just watch this short video together.

Right? Right!?

We ADORED the reflective details around the shoe. Apart from keeping us away from danger at night, they also kept us away from being tasteless.

In this pair, Vans mixes its modern city style with an outdoor vibe. We can see this clearly in the laces, which have the strength and shape of the ones seen in hiking shoes, but a cool touch that we usually find in the sneakers'.

Are you ready for more good news regarding the tongue? Cause we sure are!

When we walked around town with these pretty things, we never felt any kind of lace bite. This is thanks to the incredibly padded tongue! Our caliper marked 10.4 mm, which is a whole 41% higher than average!

Compared to other thinner tongues (like the one in the Adidas Gazelle), this one makes sure our feet are comfortably where they should be. Channeling its inner hiker once again, the Vans Sk8-Hi MTE 2 gives you a strong lockdown feel, we absolutely loved it!

As the good chunky boys they are, their interior is quite padded. We can now see where its weight and warming powers come from!

A detail that we loved about this pair was how obedient its tongue is.

With two gussets (attachments), one per side, this pair did not let its tongue dance around. Once again, this leveled up the whole comfort game, as we didn't have to be constantly putting the tongue back in place.

One of the coolest details we've seen in sneakers is the double pull-tab game of the Sk8-Hi MTE 2!

Look, there's one at the front...

...and one at the back!

They couldn't be any cooler if they tried!

This does not only make the shoe easier to put on, but it also gives it extra style points. With these bad boys roughed up aesthetics, you can walk around town with that thought vibes whilst your feet are being comfortably held.

Bad on the outside, but good on the inside lovers, where you at?

We did love these kicks insole, but as it's removable, you can change it and use your own orthotics if needed.
