Vans Old Skool 36 Pearlized “Racing Red” Design
Red canvas covers most of the “Racing Red” upper, with a darker red suede wrapping the toe, eyestays, and heel. White stitching runs through the tonal build, and cream laces give the pair a slightly aged look. Pearls and crystals in multiple sizes, mixed with silver eyelets and small metal studs, trim the white Jazz Stripe and spread across the toe, tongue, and heel panels.
The midsole gets the same weathered treatment used across the rest of the pack, a white sole marked with darkened spots and scuffed edges rather than a clean, bright foam. It’s a warmer, more rugged take than the brand’s navy Pearlized Old Skool 36, which released earlier in 2026 with a cooler, darker tone.
How Is “Racing Red” Different From the Pack’s Navy Colorway?
The “Racing Red” pair swaps the navy and black suede of the earlier Pearlized colorway for red canvas and darker red suede panels. Pearls and crystals still line the Jazz Stripe and toe, and the aged white midsole carries over from the rest of the pack.
