VANS MENS LA COSTA LITE SANDAL Inspired by Vans classic vulcanized roots, the Checkerboard La Costa Lite features synthetic nubuck straps with soft rubber and stretch textile linings for comfort. A lightweight, flexible, and durable injected UltraCush Lite waffle outsole pairs with a subtle waffle pattern on the footbed, and the iconic Vans checkerboard print provides that kick of retro cool. Finished with a heritage foxing line, this classic sandal is made with water-based inks and glues.
