If their recent collaborations with size?, Supreme, and CDG are any indication, Vans’ timeless silhouettes continue to prove themselves time and time again that any pattern, color, or material utilized on their silhouettes can result in a compelling makeover. After recently applying warped checkerboard patterns on an exclusive Sk8-Hi collection at BILLY’s Tokyo, it looks at though the 1970 psychedelic graphics are now making their way onto this brand new installment of the classic Era SF. Furnished with canvas uppers and UltraCush sock liners, this newest rendition opts for a minimal black and white color scheme – a departure from the more vibrant previously released warped makeovers – with the asymmetric patterns wrapping the upper in its entirety, allowing its full marshmallow sole to provide a clean and contrasting aesthetic. These skate-ready sneakers are now available at select Vans retailers for $60 USD, so be sure to peep a closer look here below.
