The VANS Liberty Art Fabrics collection revamps quaint fabric prints for Fall 2014 that are refreshingly vibrant and full of intricate patterns. These colorful sneakers are perfect for jetting around the city in.
VANS and British brand Liberty recently teamed up again to offer skaters a footwear collection that creatively blends old school fabrics with modern shoe silhouettes. These skater sneakers feature the iconic thick white VANS sole, white laces and wide brim coupled with feminine fabrics. Some Liberty fabric motifs include dainty paisleys, fun flowers and symmetrical Victorian patterns. Each of the shoes has a fun person name—such as Felix, Isabella or Lodden—inspired by the eye-catching bold prints. The collection will be available in VANS stores for purchase later this month.
