Check out these nice looking 106 Vulcanized Vans from the Cali collection. Seen here in two slightly different colorways, but with what appears to be the same color tweed material. The differences are in the stitching, laces, leather heel, and foxing stripes. Are these a must have?

The Chukka Del Barco, one of the more popular styles from Vans, is back for the Fall, under the California collection. This comes as no surprise, as the California collection aims to fill that gap of consumer, who wants a shoe that can be worn for work and for play, while still somewhat hitting the common Vans price point, but at the same time being slightly more limited. This time, the Chukka Del Barco Decon will come in 4 colorways, Black, Navy, Grey, and Brown, each sitting on top of an off-white midsole, with brown foxing stripe. Not much more info at this time, but these should be showing up soon, to your local Vans California dealer as well as online.

They’ve chosen to construct this model with hidden stitch seams, giving it the “NS” designation, meaning “No stitch”. Seen here in the blue canvas colorway, these are a clean and simple design, perfect for your summer line-up. These should be showing up at your local California dealers soon.
