The Vans Bearcat Skate Shoes are a great addition to any skater's wardrobe. My analysis of this product showed that they are stylish, comfortable, and durable. The charcoal color looks great with any outfit and the rubber sole provides excellent traction while skating. The ONLY downside is that they can be a bit snug at first, but they do stretch out after a few wears. Overall, i would highly recommend these shoes to any skateboarder or anyone looking for a stylish and durable sneaker..
