Just when you think Vans can't get any better, the brand unleashes the Vans x Cult Capsule Collection.
While the company is well-known for handling skateboard-related products, this time it's gone BMX. The Vans x Cult Capsule Collection features two very exclusive bike handle grips in two colorways featuring a waffle pattern. Of course, how can anything with the former brand be complete without a pair of sneakers? The series sees the release of two new kicks, both of which are low-tops with a black upper, white soles and an orange accent. The tongue of the shoe has the frightening cult logo embedded onto it.
If you're into dark, macabre themes and the world of extreme sports, the Vans x Cult Capsule Collection is definitely for you. Look for these to hit stores on October 1.
