In time for the summer, Vans is bringing back its Sid NI design, which has been updated with the vintage iteration of its classic flying-V logo and granted two glitter-heavy colorways.
The Sid NIs can be picked up in both a vivid blue and black colorway, with both colorways contrasted with white laces, soles, and embroidered branding. The textured soles are finished off with a set of black racing stripes, helping to break up the design some more and giving the sneakers a more cohesive aesthetic. For superior comfort and more durability, the new Sid NIs are also outfitted with the brand's UltraCrush foot beds.
Both colorways will be available from select Vans retailers, as well as from the brand's online store, in June.
