Vans and Dane Reynolds Partner Up on a New Paradoxxx Sneaker Model
Footwear label Vans works in partnership with professional surfer Dane Reynolds in creating the Paradoxxx sneaker. The collaborative Paradoxxx shoes are a brand new model that take on a retro aesthetics. This concept is drawn directly from Reynold's attitude of 'go for broke' and his overall contradictory public persona.
The shoe's uppers are constructed from a durable suede and canvas material with detailing elements found in the retro stitching details for contrasting elements. There are branding details found on the tongue patch and well as a large 'Off the Wall' embroidery and an original Vans Flying V logo embellished on the lateral. The retro themed Paradoxxx sneaker is now available online and at select Vans retail locations.
