Thanks to Overkill, Berlin, we get a first sneak peek at the upcoming Vault x WTAPS collaboration. This pack has some design cues taken from prior Vault x WTAPS collections, as well as an all new wild design. Taking cues from the Fall 2013 collab, the OG Old Skool LX features the same “Surplus” canvas and suede design, in the same olive and navy colorways. It’s funny, because Vans created a GR version of this style shortly after the Vault one, which was a nice alternative to the absurd asking prices of the OG Sk8-Hi due to Kanye being seen in them. New heads won’t understand the reasoning why that shoe still resells for so high. Anyways, on to the OG Era LX. They take cues from the Fall 2015 collection, inspired by Steve Caballero’s original colorway of the Caballero, aka Full Cab, aka OG Full Cab, featuring a black suede and either grey or olive croc pattern on the side panels, while sitting on top of black midsoles. The newest and fresh design we have, are the “Ultra Litty” “Gucci LaFlame” “Flavor Town” OG Sk8-Hi LX, featuring an all black canvas and suede material, with a bold orange or blue flame graphic embroidered on the side panels of the shoe. Hate ’em or love ’em, they definitely stand out. There’s also another new design, by way of a digicamo Half Cab LX, which there’s also a matching digicamo longsleeve tee to go with it. There’s also a few other apparel pieces, and a duffel bag. Check them out after the jump.
Anyways, I usually don’t like leaked photos, as it tends to cause more harm than good to the brand, but since Overkill has posted these up on their site, giving the heads up that they’ll be going on sale soon, I figured why not be first to show you? Enjoy!
