...BUT THE FINAL TEST REALLY IS YOURS
You may never need to test your running shoes to the limit. Then again, you may. That's why Vans spent two years in researching, developing and testing this shoe for the protection and comfort of your feet. Vans Serio- Style 152 was awarded a 5-star rating in the Runner's World's 1982 Forefoot and Rearfoot Impact Tests in the Men's Training Shoe Division. Feel confident that your Vans are with you every step of the way. "Man, I need Vans !"
