Vans LX Old Skool 36 Zip in Black: How to Buy

The Vans LX Old Skool 36 Zip in black is available now on Complex, bringing a refined edge to one of skateboarding’s most enduring silhouettes.

The Old Skool has been a cornerstone of skate culture since the 1970s, when Vans first introduced the design with its signature side stripe. The LX line elevates that foundation with premium materials and thoughtful construction details. The 36 Zip variant adds a medial zipper for easy on-and-off functionality while maintaining the low-profile aesthetic that made the Old Skool a staple both on and off the board. The black colorway keeps things clean and versatile, built on a vulcanized rubber midsole that delivers the board feel skaters have trusted for decades.

Vans has spent nearly five decades refining the Old Skool, and the LX collection represents the brand’s commitment to quality without abandoning the original spirit.
