Off the Hook works in collaboration with Vans Vault on a pair of the Era LX sneaker model as a part of the 'Chez Nous' pack. The capsule honors the boutique's heritage of Montreal, Quebec and the name of the series directly translates to 'Our Home.'
The heartwarming footwear pack is described as a "love letter to Montreal" and it features three colorway options in total. Each one represents the three different iconic locations in Montreal -- the blue colorway nods to the river that surrounds Old Montreal. The green tonal option references Mount Royal, and the Brown colorway references the brick and mortar location of the city's respected boutique, Off the Hook. Each sneaker is constructed from leather and suede and the address of each store location is embroidered at the tongue.
