Recognized as one of our 50 Greatest Skate Shoes of All Time, Airwalk is set to now bring back its iconic Vic sneaker.

The classic shoe was originally released back in 1987, introducing that unforgettable "lace-saving" velcro flap to keep you from blowing out your laces while boarding. The Vic is here presented in smooth suede form, showcasing a predominantly black look. The extra ankle padding and reinforced toe are still present this time around, making the technical sneaks skate-specific once again. 

You can look forward to the Vic returning from Airwalk on November 26, via Airwalk.com Retail is $70.
