Tom Hardy is a tough guy, and not only because his surname says so. His many roles, from an ex-Marine mixed martial arts fighter in Warrior and the super-hench super villain Bane in The Dark Knight Rises, to Charles Bronson, Britain\u2019s most notorious violent prisoner, and underground fixer Harry de Souza<\/a> in MobLand, have helped cast him as the UK\u2019s leading hard man.<\/p>\n

Naturally, that toughness creeps into his everyday life. Even his footwear. Now, Hardy is a bit of a sneakerhead<\/a>. He has the Supreme X Air Jordan 5s in \u201cDesert Camo\u201d and black Off-White X Air Jordan 5s in his arsenal. But he went particularly hard with his footwear when he attended a BGC Group Charity Day, alongside his co-star Helen Mirren, in a pair of all-terrain, seriously tough Vans.<\/p>\n

The trainers in question are as hardy as the roles the actor likes to take on. The Vans Crosspath XC Gore-Tex trainers were released earlier this year and are an evolution of the brand\u2019s Crosspath trainer, which debuted as an outdoor-inspired model in 2024. Hardy\u2019s Crosspath XC Gore-Tex trainers are not just inspired by the great outdoors, though. They are built for the toughest trails.<\/p>\n

Vans, an all-terrain brand? Sure, you might think of it as a skate-first footwear label, but it has form here. Its Mountain Trail Engineering (MTE) line is proof. Designed for movement in unpredictable weather, the sturdy trainers Hardy favours pair classic Vans style, the side stripe is there for devotees, with serious all-terrain protection. A Gore-Tex Invisible Fit membrane keeps water out while staying breathable, while underfoot there is a Vibram XS TREK EVO outsole for serious grip. Meanwhile, RapidWeld reinforcement adds durability without bulk, and the speedlace system makes getting out the door quick and effortless. Proper footwear for whatever extremes Mother Nature throws at you. At \u00a3180, there is a lot of bang for your buck.<\/p>\n

Tom Hardy might like tough-guy roles, but he likes his trainers even harder. Think you can take them on?<\/p>\n
