Vans Sk8-Hi MTE 2.0 DX (MTE)

Suede: Leather with a characteristic brushed finish and a soft, velvety texture. Unlike smooth leather, it is produced from the inside of the leather, which gives the material an unmistakable softness and suppleness. The main advantages of suede footwear include high breathability and the ability to adapt quickly to the anatomical shape of the foot, making the shoes comfortable from the first wear. Suede stands out for its depth of colour and gives the shoes a premium look. In order for the material to retain its properties and beauty, regular impregnation is recommended to ensure protection against moisture and dirt.

Rubber: As a midsole, it is used when maximum stability and durability is a priority instead of soft cushioning. Unlike foam materials, rubber does not sag and retains its shape even under extreme loads. It is often found in minimalist footwear for natural contact with the terrain or in work boots where it protects the foot from sharp objects. It provides excellent response and durability, making it a reliable element for specific sports disciplines such as weightlifting or skate.

Rubber: The rubber outsole provides excellent grip and durability on a variety of surfaces. Thanks to its elasticity, it absorbs shock, increasing comfort when walking or running.
