Vans Zahba Mid Shoes Beatrice Domond Dark Olive
On her board, Vans Skateboarding team member Beatrice Domond pushes street skating in a fresh, exhilarating direction that blends style and finesse. Off her board, she does the same: her incomparable personal style has made her a favorite of the fashion cognoscenti.
This versatility makes Domond a perfect choice to introduce the Zahba Mid, the newest member of the Zahba family and a silhouette that, much like Domond, can do just about anything.
Based in New York City, Domond has skated through the Big Apple’s streets in all four seasons but is particularly fond of fall — when the leaves on the city’s trees turn from a vibrant green to a rich gold.
That shift in seasons is the inspiration for her take on the Zahba Mid, which boasts a rich green suede upper trimmed with custom gold graphics on the heel and tongue badge as well as contrasting black hits on the Jazz Stripe, tongue, and laces.
The Vans Zahba Mid by Beatrice Domond is also loaded with Vans Skateboarding’s latest and greatest tech. IMPACTWAFFLE™ provides next-level impact protection without sacrificing board feel, while above it, VR3CUSH™ supplies dual-density foam made with at least 50% bio-based EVA foam.
Below this two-tech sandwich sits SICKSTICK™ rubber, with zonal tread for enhanced grip, durability, and life. DURACAP™ toecaps supply top-tier durability for even the most shoe-shredding tricks, and the sockliner is made from 98% recycled foam.
Comprised of three parts, the ImpactWaffle™ encases two layers of VR3Cush™ foam cushioning in a SickStick™ rubber outsole, providing the right amount of impact protection in the right places.
PRODUCT FEATURES:
• IMPACTWAFFLE™: To provide next level impact protection, without sacrificing boardfeel.
• VR3CUSH™: A flexible dual-density midsole made with at least 50% biobased EVA foam partially derived from plants.
• SICKSTICK™: The Zahba rubber cupsole features a zonal tread design to provide enhanced grip and durability, with a reversed waffle tread pattern in the heel to increase the longevity of the shoe.
