The basketball season is about to be underway and sneaker colors are starting to release in team colorways; Vans skateboarding has released their newest Vans Era model entitled 'Snorkel Blue' -- or, the New York Knicks colorway. This NBA-inspired model is a nice change upon frequently seeing basketball sneakers with basketball team colorways.
These Vans Era sneakers showcase the NBA New York Knicks' blue and orange look upon the upper canvas of the sneaker. The multicolored laces features a black and orange colorway that accentuates the other colors, while a pure white midsole offers a contrast below. These dope kicks are available through certain retailers online now, and will be a hit amongst Knicks fans and those that are looking to rock basketball-inspired sneakers that aren't made for the court.
