“For the latest drop of the season, Vans designers offer two new remastered versions of the Era and the Old Skool Cap. Inspired by the Vans ‘Inside Out’ assortment which debuted last season, the Chenille pack uses unique techniques and exposed materials – incorporating DIY, deconstruction, and 3D design details that tie together the Classic footwear offering.
The Chenille pack kicks off with the Era, offering a modern take on the Classic silhouette. The Era features an off-white sole and canvas upper, with complimenting eyelets, stitching, laces, and interior, creating a monochromatic feel to the base of the shoe. Vans designers have elevated the brands iconic checkerboard pattern using flocked snow-white chenille material across the front and side panels for a 3D checkerboard effect. The Era is finished with a light pink, hand-stitched checkerboard patterned heel to tie these elements together. Rounding out the pack is the Old Skool Cap – a deconstructed take on the Vans Old Skool using a cut and paste design treatment. The Old Skool Cap integrates the raised chenille checkerboard pattern decorates the side panels and is complimented by an exposed foam Sidestripe and heel collar.
The lo-top model is finished with a double-layered tongue, pink pull tab and an upside-down sidewall application.”
The Vans Chenille pack will be available on Vans.com and vans retail stores this August. For more information, please visit Vans.com/news.
