Dqm Vans Sk8 Hi Collection Early Skate Era 01

DQM is taking us back to skateboarding 101 with a simple and timeless collection of the Vans Sk8-Hi LX in honor of the skate scene that emerged during the early 80s. This trio of premium leather Sk8-His feature basketball styling that you might find on the Nike Air Force 1 High, as added straps nod at classic sport team colors for a retro vibe. The vintage feel is characterized by East Coast skateboarding culture with canvas and leather hits throughout, nylon tongue, and of course the addition of removable straps. Three colorways are available ranging from Black, White, and Navy and will be available this Saturday, June 18th at Vans SQM General Store in SoHo and online. More photos below.
