You are Made for the Elements. These are your Vans. Worlds. Have. Collided. The Half Cab, one of Vans’ most recognizable heritage skateboarding shoes, snaps on MTE’s pinnacle technical package to create the beast-est mid-cut of all time. Thirty years in the making, the Half Cab GORE-TEX MTE-3 combines iconic skate style and swagger with MTE-3’s GORE-TEX breathable, waterproof package, Vans’ exclusive use of GORE-TEX’s all-new Duratherm insulation, and an MTE-3 outsole featuring All-Trac all-weather rubber compound. It’s a lot. And it’s meant to be. Question is: What are you gonna do with it? The the Half Cab GORE-TEX MTE-3 is made with leather, textile, and synthetic uppers. MOISTURE MANAGEMENT - Engineered with a breathable waterproof internal bootie that allows moisture to escape while keeping snow and rain out, the GORE-TEX® “GUARANTEED TO KEEP YOU DRY™” promise is trusted in any condition. THERMOREGULATION - This 3M Thinsulate™ insulation package is thin, lightweight, and warm. An extremely fine microfiber weave helps to trap air and block heat loss, making for incredibly efficient heat retention while allowing internal moisture to escape. TRACTION - The MTE™-3 outsole with All-Trac rubber compound has a dynamic lug tread pattern that provides flexible, true all-weather grip that significantly aides in overall traction on variable terrain. Toe picking treads and a higher toe bumper offer added traction and protection. COMFORT AND SUPPORT - Our MTE™-3 triple-density comfort package includes a dual-density UltraCush™ molded EVA footbed with an OrthoLite® topsheet for enhanced comfort and reduced weight—all while supporting a drier, healthier environment inside your shoe.
