First look at Curren's new kicks!

Vulcanised footwear has been at the heart of the Vans brand since its inception, prized for its unbeatable grip, exceptional boardfeel, and reliable support, qualities that have defined Vans skate shoes for generations. Now, Vans Skate Team member Curren Caples introduces a fresh take on this legacy with his first signature skate shoe, CURREN. This new silhouette elevates vulcanized performance to greater heights, embodying the evolution of skateboarding footwear at its finest.

“I’ve been skating Vans my whole life and never really thought I would have a shoe with my name on it. It’s a pretty cool feeling! Being part of the legacy of skaters with their own shoes on Vans is truly an honour.” – Curren Caples

The Curren will be available in red and gray/yellow at Vans stores, Vans.com.au and select Skate Shops nationally starting May 16. Meanwhile, the Curren VCU, in an all-black colourway, makes its exclusive debut at select skate retailers from May 5. Online at Fast Times.
