Vans Filmore Hi Trainers
The high-top Vans. More structure, and better with a wetsuit-adjacent wardrobe.
Our rating
4.2 out of 5
The high-top, which adds structure around the ankle and suits a wardrobe built around board shorts and hoodies. Same sole, more shoe. Warmer in summer and slower to get on — the Old Skool is the easier daily choice.
