While Vans is best known for its fashion-conscious street-ready footwear, its product range covers a broader selection of footwear that extends to all-terrain sports and hiking activities. The new Vans Crosspath XC GORE-TEX Shoe fits neatly into this bracket, delivering a rugged and durable option for venturing into the wild during fall and winter.

Available in a trio of color variations, including blackout, dusty olive blue, and white, the Vans Crosspath XC GORE-TEX Shoe is a supremely stylish all-terrain shoe finished with a chunky GORE-TEX logo on the sides. Representing an upgrade over previous equivalent designs from Van, it’s a showcase of the best features with a few appealing updates thrown in for good measure.

On the all-terrain technology front, the Vans Crosspath XC GORE-TEX Shoe utilizes the latest GORE-TEX Invisible Fit system, designed to guarantee waterproofing without compromising breathability. It’s a tried-and-tested material with a proven track record of delivering reliable performance in the most punishing of weather conditions.

The Vans Crosspath XC GORE-TEX Shoe also includes a Vibram outsole, ensuring a resilient grip when running or hiking on rough terrain. Additionally, there’s the inclusion of RapidWeld enforcement, applied to critical areas of the shoe’s construction. Combined with the brand’s trademark speedy lacing system, this ensures consistent performance and easy on-the-go adjustments when out on a trail.

With additional features such as the traction-enhancing Vibram XS TREK EVO sole and UltraCush foam cushioning, the Vans Crosspath XC GORE-TEX Shoe combines the best of all-terrain and street-ready footwear into a single stylish design.
