Sailor Moon Takes the Spotlight on Vans' Old Skool Overt CC
Vans and Sailor Moon continue to work in collaboration and this time around, the duo spotlight the Vans Old Skool Overt CC silhouette. It has a soft suede material that makes up the base foundation of the sneaker in a checkerboard pattern that also applies leather paneling for textural contrast.
This can be seen in the toe and the eyestay sections. The Japanese title of the anime series can be seen in a pop of pink embroidered on top of the leather heel counter of the shoe. Notably, the character's signature bow tie can be seen in black along with the metallic transformation brooch in place of the laces over the forefoot for additional motifs that celebrate the theme.
