R. Crumb x Vans – Chukka Boot – Modern America

R. Crumb x Vans – Chukka Boot – Modern America

Vans-Chukka-Modern-America-3

We’ve seen how Vans loves to pay homage to artists who have paid their dues.  Vans has already established a collection for comic book pioneer, R. Crumb, and now Vans adds another installment to the collection.  This time designed around a Chukka, the crisp white upper (supposedly nubuck) is garnished with black stitching and stripe on the foxing.  With graphics solely found on the back of the heel, the choice of illustration best depicts R. Crumb’s history of social satire and scrutiny of American life.  Lavished with a cream-colored lining just waiting to be broken in, along with a choice of black or white laces.  Definitely a clean design.  via SoleRedemption.
