For Holiday 09, Vans Vault takes the Zapato del Barco to a whole new level of comfort and snazziness. First off, Vault version, Del Barco LX is offered in high and low top. Detailing is top flight with a nubuck upper, contrast stitching on the toebox and what appears to be a perforated insole lining. [...]
Not too long ago, the Vans Vault camp released the Calfskin leather pack. Comprised of a pair of Chukka LX, Old Skool LX and Classic Slip-On LX, they prove once again Vans is always on top of their casual lifestyle sneakers game. What threw me off recently is the above pair of Authentic LX in [...]
Heres another pack coming from the Vans Vault collection for Winter 2009 (possibly Fall). The Vans Vault Wool lineup consists of a pair of Chukka, Sk8-Hi, Old Skool and Slip On’s. Although wool and white contrast stitching are the common denominators for this pack, each shoe has its own individual textures. Take for example the [...]
With dressier round laces and premium materials, I’m wondering why there is no “LX” attached to these Supercorsas. Vans Vault will release two new colorways for the road cycling inspired Supercorsas to include brown and white this summer. Included with the sneakers are a biker’s cap and an additional set of laces. Currently, Flauge has [...]
White and beige is a no brainer summer colorway combo. And May is the perfect month for the Vans Vault “Lvevl” pack to drop. I first fell in love with the half cabs back in late February when I snuck a peek at Oki-Ni. But without knowledge of the pack’s name and what shoes made [...]
Vans Vault really knows how to save the best for last. The below Chukka is the latest edition to their “Eco” pack. Beginning with the packaging to the actual sneaker, this is Vans’ equivalent to Nike Considered. The “A” in the Vans logo is replaced with a tree indicating that materials consists of post-consumer recycled [...]
The pea coat is by far one of the best investments for surviving old man winter. The silhouette is timeless and of course it does a damn good job of keeping one warm. Everyone that keeps up with my entries knows I’ve fell head over heels for Vans not too long ago. [...]
2009 is around the corner and Vans Vault has us already sweating and waiting for the ‘Schaffers’ Pack. I have no idea when they come out. But from viewing the material used, it may be safe to assume a winter release. In no particular order, I am in need of the Eras and Chukkas. Maybe [...]
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 [...]
Vans is pushing out heavy hitters for the remaining two quarters of 08. The plaid pack consists of a pair of Authentic, Sk8-hi, Zapato del Barco and slip on. Being that plaid is a good look for the Fall season, this should be a fan favorite. By default, I’ve got my eyes on the Sk8 [...]
