Patterned Casual Patchwork Sneakers

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

Vans Launches Two New Old Skool Cap LX Sneakers

— February 3, 2021 — Fashion
Vans introduces two new tonal iterations of the Patchwork Old Skool Cap LX sneaker model. The first of the two colorways is a bright and bold option. It is a multicolored look with patterning patches throughout the entire upper. The second of the two is a black option for those who prefer a more muted look.

Both of the colorways have contrasting patchwork designs, which nods to some of the brand's most iconic designs. The toe has a stretched out flower and met by checkerboard prints that lay on top. Additional patterns include dotted embroidery that adorns the mesh material, tartan print, digi-camo patches, and much more. The shoes are complete with a double tongue.
