Among major sneaker brands, Vans is the established leader when it comes to chukka silhouettes. Off the Wall’s rich skate heritage means they’re not connected with the desert boot and its offspring at a 1:1 level like Clarks, but they do command a wide range of chukka offerings including this style from the California collection. The Vans Mesa Moc is back with an aesthetic derived from World War II boots that combines rich oiled leather with deep tones on the canvas side panels. Have another look below, then grab the Mesa 79 CA straight from Vans.
