What Are Vans Hylane Sneakers?

The Vans Hylane is a modern sneaker inspired by one of the brand’s previous releases, the Upland, which came onto the scene in 1999. This fresh collection pulls from Y2K designs, incorporating a chunky silhouette that echoes skate culture. What’s more, the Hylane features lots of Vans branding: along the sidewall is the signature Sidestripe (with a glossy 3D effect), and the outsole, heel, and puffy tongue all display the brand name in bold letters.

The collection has a reverse waffle outsole and flex grooves, and with extra padding in the tongue and collar, you can enjoy maximum comfort all day long, no matter if you’re testing your skills in the skate park or casually going about your day. To further improve the Hylane’s comfort levels, the brand has listened to feedback from both wearers and athletes, implementing a wider forefoot and a larger toe box, crafting the perfect fit. Truly, this is a practical sneaker, built to endure all types of activities while providing endless amounts of style points.

So, what’s this stylish sneaker made from? The upper uses modern suede and synthetic materials, offering high levels of durability and adopting a popular aesthetic. You can select your preferred colour across dozens of eye-catching options (including grey, black, brown, and pink), many of which you’ll find here in the JD Sports AU lineup (subject to availability).
