Description
The Wasted Talent x Vans Sk8-Hi 38 Decon VR3 SF in Blanc de Blanc is a fresh take on the iconic Sk8-Hi — inspired by European heritage and the lazy ritual of Italian aperitivo. Crafted from a clean canvas-and-suede upper in a warm off-white tone, featuring luxe 3D embroidery of the Wasted Talent logo and a subtle brand emboss on the midsole. Built on Vans' deconstructed Sk8-Hi 38 silhouette with a slightly taller cuff, paired with their VR3Cush™ biobased foam footbed, lightweight single-wrap foxing tape, and the classic Vans waffle outsole for that signature grip and board feel.

Care Instructions
- Wipe clean with a soft, dry cloth after each wear
- For deeper cleaning: damp cloth with mild detergent, then air dry away from heat — light-coloured uppers show dirt easily, frequent gentle care preserves the Blanc de Blanc tone
- Brush suede panels gently with a suede brush — never use water on suede
- Protect with a suede & canvas waterproofing spray before first wear
- Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight and heat sources
- Store with shoe trees in a cool, dry place to maintain shape
About Wasted Talent
Wasted Talent was born on a late summer evening in the South West of France — a conversation sparked by a shared frustration with the lack of innovation in the surf and skate scenes across Europe. The brand represents a common space for products and clothing that transition seamlessly from the beach to the bar, and beyond. Designed for those who refuse to compromise on style or substance.
