We've been seeing the height increase on the Vans Old Skool for a few drops now and, personally, I'm loving this increased take on the classic skate shoe.

Now, Vans teams up with Urban Outfitters for an Old Skool exclusive as the Creeper-esque sneaker gets the official Vans stamp of approval with a new checkered pattern.

The signature Vans checkered pattern covers an all canvas upper. A black rear panel and red highlights on the tongue make this a stand out piece. A padded ankle collar and stacked white midsole completes the offering.

Ringing in at a budget-friendly $65 USD, the Vans Old Skool Platform Checker is available now.
