Vans and Paul Smith Pack
Vans has collaborated with high fashion designer Paul Smith to create this new pack featuring a Sk8 Hi and a Chukka.
The Sk8 Hi is comprised of brown suede and canvas, and of course features the signature multi-color striped pattern. It is used in the inner lining, on the back of the heel, and on the tongue tags in both these shoes. Therefore the colors don’t take away from the muted understated quality of this pack.
I’m not really a fan of the Sk8, as it’s a little too drab for me, particularly because it’s releasing in Spring. If this was a winter shoe, I might actually like it. However this pack is being released as part of the Vans Spring ‘08 collection.
The Chukka is all grey canvas, so it’s still rather simple in style. However, I like it more than the Sk8. Grey shoes are really in fashion right now and I think this one will be more popular. Pictures via Footurama.
