Vans Skate Shoes & Apparel in Australia
Vans has been the original skate shoe since 1966, building a legacy that no other footwear brand can match. Fast Times stocks a wide range of Vans skate shoes and accessories in Australia, available online and in store in Melbourne. From the Half Cab and Old Skool to the Skate Loafer and Curren Caples, we carry current season stock across the full Vans skate range.
Vans Off The Wall: A Skate Legacy Since 1966
Founded in Anaheim, California in 1966, Vans became the footwear of choice for Southern California's skateboarding pioneers almost immediately. The brand's sticky waffle outsoles and canvas uppers gave skaters the grip and board feel they needed at a time when no one else was making shoes specifically for skating. Iconic models like the Era, Old Skool, and Sk8-Hi set the blueprint for skate footwear that the entire industry still follows. Decades later, Vans remains at the centre of skateboarding culture through its skate team, event support, and the ongoing Skate Classics and pro model lines.
Vans Skate Loafer
The Vans Skate Loafer is one of the most searched Vans styles in Australia and one of the most distinctive shoes in the current skate market. A slip-on loafer silhouette built on Vans skate-specific construction, the Skate Loafer is available at Fast Times in black and is a strong option for skaters and non-skaters alike who want something different from the standard skate shoe silhouette.
Vans Half Cab
The Vans Half Cab is a skate icon. Originally a cut-down version of the Steve Caballero signature Cab, the Half Cab has been a staple of skateboarding since the early 1990s and remains one of the most respected skate shoes ever made. Fast Times stocks the Half Cab in the Wafflecup construction across multiple colourways including black/white, black/asphalt, and black/black, plus the Atiba colourway. A shoe that has never gone out of style and never will.
Vans Skate Old Skool
The Vans Old Skool is the most recognisable silhouette in the brand's catalogue. The Skate Old Skool brings skate-specific construction to the classic design, with Duracap reinforcement and PopCush cushioning. Fast Times stocks the Skate Old Skool in black/white, black/black, black/gum, and brown/gum, plus the 36+ versions in black/white, black/stv navy, and the Atiba black/dark green colourway.
Vans Skate Era & Era Stub
The Vans Era is one of the original skate shoes, designed with input from Tony Alva and Stacy Peralta in the 1970s. The Skate Era Wafflecup brings updated construction to the classic low-profile silhouette, available at Fast Times in black/white and black/brown. The Era Stub is a slightly chunkier variation, available in the Vans x Dime collaboration colourway in taupe.
Vans Skate Authentic & Authentic High
The Vans Skate Authentic is the brand's most stripped-back silhouette, built on the same canvas-and-waffle-sole formula that started it all. Available at Fast Times in black/white and navy/turtledove. The Skate Authentic High is a mid-top version in black suede for skaters who want a little more ankle coverage without going full Sk8-Hi.
Vans Sk8-Hi
The Vans Sk8-Hi is the original high-top skate shoe, offering ankle support and a bold silhouette that has been a skate wardrobe staple for decades. Available at Fast Times in black/black and black/white in the Skate construction.
Vans Skate Slip On
The Vans Slip On is one of the most iconic silhouettes in skateboarding. The Skate Slip On brings reinforced construction to the classic laceless design, available at Fast Times in black/true white. The Classic Slip On in black/white/checkerboard is also available for those after the original look.
Vans Curren Caples
The Vans Curren Caples is a signature shoe for Curren Caples, one of the most stylish skaters in the game. A low-profile vulcanised shoe with a clean aesthetic, the Curren Caples is available at Fast Times in black/white, red/white, and the Atiba emerald colourway.
Vans Skate Ave 2.0
The Vans Skate Ave 2.0 is a cupsole skate shoe that prioritises cushioning and impact protection over the slimmer vulcanised silhouettes in the range. Built on a more substantial sole unit with a clean upper, the Ave 2.0 suits skaters who want more underfoot support without sacrificing the classic Vans aesthetic. Available at Fast Times in medium grey.
Vans Skate 2 Wayvee
The Vans Skate 2 Wayvee is a cupsole skate shoe with a distinctive chunky profile, available at Fast Times in grey and black/white/red. A strong option for skaters after more cushioning and a bolder silhouette than the brand's classic low-profile models.
Vans Rowley & Zahba
The Vans Skate Rowley is a signature shoe for Geoff Rowley, available at Fast Times in the 25th anniversary navy/white colourway and Rowley Red. The Vans Zahba is a newer silhouette in the skate range, available in light khaki.
Vans Sport Low & Safe Low
The Vans Sport Low is a clean low-top in black/gum and white/black suede, sitting at the more casual end of the Vans range. The Safe Low Rory is a leather low-top in white, offering a more premium material option within the range.
Vans Collaborations
Fast Times stocks a strong range of Vans collaborative releases. The Vans x Ed Davis collection includes the LX Authentic 44, t-shirts, a long sleeve tee, and a zip hood. The Vans x Dime Skate Era Stub in taupe is one of the most sought-after collab pieces in the current range. The Vans x Carpet cooler bag in skydiver blue and several Atiba Jefferson colourway shoes across the Half Cab, Old Skool 36+, and Curren Caples round out the collab selection.
