I must’ve been sleeping on this Vans Syndicate release as I love suede, wool and even more, the Vans Half Cab.  For this recent release, Vans Syndicate partnered up with fellow Z-Boy, Eric Dressen.  The Half Cab silhouette is given an array of textures as mentioned earlier.  However, what should make Half Cab lovers drop their jaw is the fedora style ribbon with “Syndicate” logo.  Double takes are needed as I was wondering what happened to the Half Cab patch.  Three colorways are available and I must say all three are top flight.  If your emotions are a bit unstable right now, they can be delivered to your doorstep by phoning into UNIV.  I may have to pay a visit to Elite and Palace5ive soon…

I am in love with the mature and clean look these Chukkas have going on.  Recently, there have been a lot of appealing Vans Syndicate and Vault releases.  However, with details such as the plaid lining, premium laces and of course the luxury nubuck leather, these set the standard for a Fall motifed sneaker.  Be on the look out for these at your local Vans Vault dealer.  But if you can’t wait, Caliroots has them in stock now.

Meanwhile, make the leap for more photos.
