This model sort of flew under the radar with us, but thanks to Hot Rod, we can share some photos of the newly released Cuerpo LX from the Vault team.  Available in 3 colorways, Cream, Monks Robe, and Black, all constructed of fine quality leathers throughout.  Even the foxing stripes are done up with leather and the familiar stitching that accompanies it.  The shape is familiar, but unique, with a leather pull-loop on the heel, and flat waxed tonal laces.  These could’ve easily been a Taka Hayashi release!  Crossing my fingers, he does his variation of the Cuerpo!  These are now available via phone order from Hot Rod, and possibly at your local Vault dealers as well.  Peep each color individually, after the jump!

The new Premio Leather pack from Vault is turning out to be a pretty solid release, and DQM has released some better shots of the shoes for all of us to see.  Not new to the calfskin make-up, you may recall the Calfskin Chukka with the $200+ retail price from a few years ago?  Well, the new pack won’t be that much, but the materials are just as nice.  There’s even a message on the back of the Vans leather keychain that is attached to these, that says: “PREMIUM ITALIAN CALF-SKIN.  BREAK ‘EM IN”.  The slip-ons are available in a black leather, on black sole version, as well as a burgundy leather, on a gum sole version, just like the Sk8-Hi’s, and are available now from DQM in NYC, and they do take phone orders, or you can just wait til your local Vault dealer gets theirs.

The Priz Laced LX, originally designed by Taka Hayashi, is back for the Fall, in a standard Vault release known as the “Two-Tone” Pack.  We can show you what the Cream Suede/Tan Leather colorway looks like, but there’s going to be a few more colorways as well.  Check out the premium construction, and materials on this pair for now, and tell me these won’t be a hit!  Watch for these to drop at your local Vault dealer soon.

Here’s a new model from Vans Vault,  the Penny Loafer LX.  A modern take on a classic shoe, with a little bit of Vans heritage mixed in between.  Notice the front end of the shoe got its looks from the “Del Barco” models that are popular right now?  However, the heel and tongue are all new.  This model sits on top of the slim profiled “Lo Pro” sole, which if I’m not mistaken, are only found on girls’ models.  Perhaps this release is intended for the ladies?  Whatever fits your style, I guess!  There’s 5 colorways available which can be seen after the jump.

There’s a ton of new styles from Vans Vault on the way, and we’ve already seen a few of them.  The Chukka Bardenas LX that we see here, is the latest in a growing list of mature, yet modern styles from Vault.  This looks like something that would come from the stylings of Taka Hayashi, but the TH moniker isn’t present, so go figure.  Either way, these are a damn nice Chukka boot, looking slimmed down, sitting on a cupsole with a slightly raised heel.  The color choice is on point as well, going for those autumn colors, with a charcoal, gray, mustard, and turquoise colorway, with accompanying accent colors for each model.  Are these a must cop?

The “standard issue” styles from Vault are one of my favorites.  With a design influence taken directly from vintage military boots, complete with nylon-reinforced side straps, and a few earth tone colorways, this lineup will catch the attention of those looking for that military-inspired look.  Vault also likes to sometimes add a few bright, non-conforming colorways to this series, as a direct contrast to what the styling is aiming for, and maybe perhaps offer something to the Vault buyer who is into the more flashy stuff.  Who knows, but it works!  These will be offered in 3 colorways: Bracken (brown), Black, and Pewter.
