Why We Love This Deal
Vans has been synonymous with skateboarding shoes since its inception nearly 60 years ago, but the label has been expanding its selection over the years to include more outdoor-ready gear. These hiking shoes are a great example of this diversification, and they’re 30% off on Huckberry right now.
Right now at Huckberry, you can get the $140 Vans MTE Crosspath Mid Trail Sneakers for $98. At the time of writing, Huckberry is only offering the mid-top version in the Olive colorway for 30% off, but there are a few other height and colorway options marked down on the site as well.

What Shoppers Should Know
- Upper: Mesh
- Midosle: EVA foam
- Outsole: Rubber (with lugs)
- Sizes: 8-13
- Water-Resistant?: Yes
While these are certainly made for the outdoors, Vans has taken a few design choices from its skating shoes, like the iconic Vans stripe and the impact-absorbing UltraCrush technology. Up top, there’s a water-resistant mesh upper for breathability and protection against the elements, joined with an EVA foam midsole for all-day comfort. On the bottom, you’re getting a lugged rubber outsole to keep you steady on the trails. The overall lightweight construction and moderate flex profile make movement (and traveling) incredibly easy, and the mid-top height coverage gives you some solid ankle support.
What Shoppers are Saying
On Vans’ website, reviewers who haven’t tried the label’s outdoor shoes are thoroughly impressed: “I bought these to replace an old pair of walking shoes bought from an outdoors shop. I stumbled across it, not realising that Vans makes this style of shoe. I’m so pleased I did, they haven’t needed any breaking in, they are strong, waterproof, have a good grip, they are comfortable and supportive, and look stylish too. I’m already looking for my next pair.”
Shoppers who were able to test them outdoors can vouch for their quality as well, with one owner writing, “I have used these in the desert to hike up the mountains. They have a good grip on the slippery rocks. Great ankle protection against the sharp rocks, and I like the way they look.”
The stylish and trail-ready Vans MTE Crosspath Mid Trail Sneakers can be yours for $98 thanks to Huckberry. A few sizes are already out of stock, so now’s the time to grab a pair if you’re interested.
