WEATHER-READY SNEAKERS: A streetwear staple that's built to go off the pavement, the Kids' Ashwood Hi Vansguard can handle it all – from misty fall mornings to sunny spring afternoons, and every forecast in between. OUTDOOR VERSATILITY: Weatherized suede and mesh uppers with a non-PFC Durable Water-Repellent (DWR) finish keep their feet dry in rainy conditions, while the treaded reverse waffle outsole adds grip and durability. STYLE & COMFORT: Perfect for all-day wear, these kids' fashion sneakers feature the classic Vans Sidestripe and have soft padded tongues and collars that prevent rubbing during long walks. BUILT TO LAST: Rubber toe and heel caps protect against rocks, roots, and uneven pavement, while metal shoelace eyelets and sturdy vulcanized construction ensure lasting durability – season after season. VANS HERITAGE: Since 1966, Vans has inspired creativity and self-expression at every age. The Kids' Ashwood Hi Vansguard keeps that spirit alive, giving boys and girls the freedom to move, explore, and have fun.
