Vans celebrates its long-lasting BMX heritage with the debut of the Style 112 Pro in team rider Dakota Roche’s signature colorway. Available now, the Style 112 Pro is built with proven Vans UltraCush technology to fit the demands of BMX’s heaviest street rider, Dakota Roche. Dakota Roche’s signature Style 112 Pro is featured in the Vans California Native Collection, designed in black suede and a contrasting burnt olive Sidestripe. Built with Vans’ original waffle outsole and Duracap reinforced uppers, this silhouette delivers unrivaled durability and a firm no-slip grip. The Style 112 Pro was inspired by feedback from the Vans BMX team, employing Vans Vulc Lite construction and UltraCush HD sockliners to keep the foot close to the pedal while providing the highest level of impact cushioning needed for Dak’s unforgiving riding style.

Enjoy his extra clips and behind-the-scenes in the latest episode of the Still United Files.
