By Justin Graves , last updated May 20, 2011

If you're looking for a pair of shoes that are both casual and extremely comfortable, you may want to consider purchasing a pair of Vans Era sneakers. However, before we launch into the specific types of Vans Era shoes, it's important that we also take a look at the company itself. Vans is a shoe manufacturing company based in America. It was founded in 1966 and has become a leader in the skateboard shoe market. This company specializes in designing and producing skateboarding sneakers, BMX shoes, snowboard boots and related apparel. Generally, these sneakers are fairly affordable as well, so you don't have to worry about overspending when shopping for Vans sneakers.

Now, let's take a look at the different types of Vans Era sneakers. First, we have the basic Canvas Era sneaker. This classic skate shoe uses basic laces in a two-tone color to give you a feel that is both comfortable and breathable. These shoes feature a padded tongue and lining with the company’s signature waffle sole. Currently, you can purchase these classic shoes in a variety of different colors such as two-tone black and steel blue, black and passionflower, black and magenta pink, brilliant blue and true white, and pink lightning and black.

For a finer Vans Era shoe, consider purchasing the Leather Era 59 sneakers. These shoes sell for roughly $47 through the official Vans website and come in three styles. The styles include the basic dark denim and tortoise shell, basic white and sheepskin and the black and tortoise shell brown color. Similar to the regular Canvas Era shoes, these low-top skate shoes are built to last. However, these shoes actually feature fine leather details and are great for more formal occasions. Finally, you can rest assured that these shoes are about as comfortable as it gets.

Next, we have the Suede Era sneakers. These shoes sell for roughly $47 to the official Vans website. Currently, they come in colors of Port Royal red and moon indigo, dark shadow gray and black, twilight blue and peacock blue, black and gargoyle gray, classic blue and pea coat blue, and neutral gray and gunmetal gray. So, if you enjoy suede shoe products, then these low top skate kicks are definitely the shoes for you. Similar to all Vans shoes, these kicks feature high-quality waffle rubber soles as well.

Finally, when shopping for Vans Eras shoes, there are several tips you can use to find the best shoes possible at the lowest price. First, it's worth visiting local sporting goods stores and skate shops in your local area to research the different Vans Era shoes and their respective prices. Then, after you've gathered several price quotes, you can choose the lowest priced sneaker that is right for you. Or, you can shop directly through the Vans online shop, although it may be easier if you can actually try the shoes on ahead of time at your local retailer to determine which size is right for you.
