Building on the resounding success of Noah's recent collaboration with Puma on the Puma Star, the New York City-based fashion house now joins forces with Vans. Reimagining the legendary Sk8-Hi, a sneaker that has effortlessly bridged the gap between skate culture and fashion since its inception in the late '70s, this newest venture stands out as a testament to innovative design.
With two distinct colorways up for grabs, the pack of corduroy and patchwork-constructed Vans sneakers gives a nod to the past while firmly facing the future. A patchwork construction unites varying tonal shades in each sneaker, lending a distinctive flair to the pair. One shoe comes coated in warm brown hues, while the other features blue shades. Both variants embrace corduroy on the midfoot panel, collar, and heel, presenting a textured contrast to the suede tongue and lace set. A black Vans-branded tongue tag sits proudly atop the tongue. The iconic Vans Jazz stripe and laces come in white, matching the contrast stitching that threads around the upper. Underfoot sits a white midsole and gum rubber outsole.
The Noah x Vans Vault Sk8-Hi Corduroy Patchwork Pack will release on July 27, 2023, exclusively via Noah online and in-store. Available in men’s sizing, the retail price is yet to be announced.
