Words via Hypebeast:

“Earlier this summer, Vans alongside German retailer Coutié linked up on the collaborative “Yin Yang” pack, unveiling an alternate look at the classic Sk8-Hi model. With the fall/winter season now upon us, the pair align once again, this time bringing to the table its “One World #2” collection. As its name so poignantly alludes to, the theme is a peaceful call to action, reminding one and all to embrace diversity and each other in this solitary world we all share.

Comprised of the Old Skool and Sk8-Hi, both models spotlight a clean black upper, with Coutié’s name appearing on the vamp, while “One World” text lands on the side area. Additional splashes of white found on the side stripe, midsole and exposed stitching, in addition to the decorative black/yellow laces add subtle contrast, helping to break up the somber black palette. The joint Coutié x Vans “One World #2” collection is available now via Coutié’s online shop.”

Check out Taka Hayashi’s latest creation for Vault.  A TH Chukka 66 LX & TH Slip-On 66 LX in a two-tone olive green canvas mockup, featuring some brown hits as well as a dark brown gum sole.  Taka incorporated a strip of contrasting lighter colored material down the toe of each shoe, which accentuates the long toe that the Slip and the Chukka are known for.  The interiors of each pair are bright orange, and each back heel features a leather panel.  The vulcanized sidewall has Taka’s vintage Director logo near the back, and the bottom of each waffle sole features the same half rising sun pattern that we’ve seen on a few other pairs.

Proper has both of these up on their site, with the TH Slip-On 66 LX going for $100 and the TH Chukka 66 LX going for $110.

Vault by Vans x Proper – OG Chukka LX (10.12.18) @properlbc

chukka_group3

It’s been awhile since we’ve seen a nice and simple Chukka, and we think it’s due for a comeback.  Of course, leave it up to Proper to help guide our fashion senses in the right direction, by bringing back an OG Triple OG with their latest offering of this set of OG Chukka LX’s.  You may first mistake these for being part of the Vault mainline, but make no mistake that these were made specifically for Proper.  Branding was kept extremely minimal, by way of a footbed logo, as well as a logo embroidered on the back side of the side flag.  That’s it.  The colorways chosen, look right out of your favorite OG lineup.  Simple.  Subtle.  Timeless.  Hopefully Vans won’t make similar colorways down the line, so not to take away from the originality that Proper is always known for.  This day and age, we seem to be over-saturated with collaborations or just the idea of collaborations, but sometimes a collaborative product doesn’t need any special materials, branding, or story to be cool.  Sometimes just the idea of re-introducing something kind of forgotten is enough, and that’s sort of the vibe I get with this pack.  MAKE CHUKKAS GREAT AGAIN! 

Here’s a few words from Proper:

“THIS FALL, PROPER WILL RELEASE A QUARTET OF CUSTOM VANS OG CHUKKA BOOT LX’s.

THE OG CHUKKA BOOT LX IS A REFINED VERSION OF THE ORIGINAL VANS CHUKKA BOOT (STYLE #149), A FAVORITE STYLE AMONGST VANS CONNOISSEURS.

THE OG CHUKKA BOOT LX FEATURES A 10oz CANVAS UPPER, SUEDE HEEL BINDING, LEATHER COLLAR LINING, CUSTOM LABELING AND INSOLES WITH A WAFFLE GUM OUTSOLE.

PRODUCED SOLELY FOR PROPER THE OG CHUKKA BOOT LX WILL BE AVAILABLE IN CLASSIC WHITE, DRESS BLUES, CHILI PEPPER, AND PARASAILING.”

THE OG CHUKKA BOOT LX RETAILS FOR $70.00 USD AND WILL BE AVAILABLE AT BOTH LONG BEACH AND HOUSTON LOCATIONS, AS WELL AS ONLINE AT PROPERLBC.COM ON OCTOBER 12th.

Vans x Disney – Mickey Mouse 90th Anniversary Collection (10.5.18) #disneyxvans

Words via Vans:

“Vans comes together with Disney to deliver a collection celebrating the true original, Mickey Mouse. To commemorate the 90th anniversary of Disney’s beloved character, Vans designers bring decades of iconic Mickey Mouse imagery to an extended offering of footwear, apparel and accessories available October 5. The collection is founded on 11 designs that capture Mickey Mouse’s spirit and evolution spanning from his introduction in the late 1920’s to present day.

To commemorate Mickey Mouse’s film debut in 1928, the Sk8-Hi has been remastered to showcase iconic scenes from the black and white silent film, Plane Crazy. Each quarter panel features a film scene that is captured under a patent material and is finished with a 3-D emblem on the heels.

The 1940’s introduction of the animated film Fantasia brought Mickey Mouse’s mischievous persona to light as “The Sorcerer’s Apprentice”. Taking inspiration from the Sorcerer’s hat, the Sk8-Hi is transformed to include velvet quarter panels adorned with celestial moon and star embroidery, which is complimented by blue suede panels and contrast yellow stitching. The Sorcerer’s Apprentice inspired Sk8-Hi is finished with a black sole, star printed laces and a Sorcerer’s Apprentice emblem on the heel. To compliment the collection a Fantasia themed tee and Old Skool II Backpack feature a far out, tie-dye print and Mickey Mouse as the Sorcerer’s Apprentice.

Disney fans can channel their inner Mouseketeer in an Old Skool model that is dedicated to the Mickey Mouse Club. Utilizing suede and cotton canvas materials, the Old Skool silhouette features a red Sidestripe and club logo sewn on the tongue. The Mickey Mouse Club themed Old Skool is finished with custom chain stitched embroidery on the back of each heel.

Vans designers channel the 1980’s in a special model of the Old Skool, which combines multi-color uppers in pink, yellow and green. The design is topped off with a classically cool Mickey Mouse print and the Vans’ iconic Checkerboard pattern. Both men and women will receive nostalgic ‘80s-inspired apparel and accessories options including hoodies, jackets, backpacks and accessories.

Mickey Mouse and Minnie Mouse are tougher than nails on a special flaming Checkerboard Slip-On. Channeling the 1990’s both Mickey Mouse and Minnie Mouse get a punk makeover. Vans and Disney fans can showcase their own “Off The Wall” attitude in the LS BF Tee, backpack, hat and hoodie that showcase flaming sleeves and a Checkerboard hood liner.

Mickey Mouse fans can channel the true original himself in the Mickey Mouse-inspired Authentic. Vans’ original deck shoe has been updated with Mickey Mouse’s trademark colors including a yellow sole complimented by black and red uppers and applique yellow buttons along the heels.

A canvas rendition of the Old Skool showcases Mickey Mouse’s iconic gloves holding the medial side of the shoe. Disney fans will have to look closely as there is a hidden Mickey located on the tongue of each shoe. This simplified take on a classic serves as inspiration for a matching women’s apparel assortment that includes a checkerboard emblazoned tee, hoodie, hat and backpack.

Mickey Mouse’s eternal sweetheart, Minnie Mouse, will receive her own two-piece footwear and apparel assortment that channels her classic polka dotted dress. Using her giant oversized bow and satin materialization, the Authentic Gore and Slide-On Sandal get dressed up with Minnie Mouse detailing and is finished with a delicate scalloped edge. Matching crewneck, backpack and sock options are also available in the selection.

The collection wraps with a last rendition that could only be created by Vans and Disney fans themselves. Vans Customs will receive two exclusive prints including a special Mickey Mouse inspired icon and a Minnie Mouse polka dot pattern that will be available beginning October 5 on Vans.com/Customs. Highlight your own favorite moment with Mickey Mouse alongside countless color and material combinations across Vans Classic silhouettes.”

 

The Vans and Disney Mickey Mouse Collection will be available to shop in Vans partner and retail stores and online at http://www.vans.com/Disney beginning on October 5.
