Premium Monochromatic Casual Shoes

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

Footpatrol and Vans Vault Join Forces on a Series of Sneakers

— November 28, 2018 — Fashion
Footwear retailer Footpatrol works in conjunction with skate label Vans Vault on a three-piece footwear pack comprised of monochromatic casual shoes. The collaborative collection feature three signature Vans Vault models including the 'Classic Slip-On LX,' the 'Sk8-Hi' shoes, and the 'Old Skool LX' shoes. All three footwear options are complete in monochromatic palettes of black and white. The minimalistic tonal concept is accented with a premium construction as the shoes are made using hairy suede materials and a "10 oz drill canvas" over the uppers.

This sits on top of midsoles made with vulcanized rubber -- additional details include the embossed accent influenced by kerb stone and branding details carefully placed on the collar lining or lacing systems. The joint pack is set to drop exclusively at Footpatrol beginning November 30th.
