Design Highlights & Performance Upgrades

The shoe's core feature is an oversized knot crossing the surface, giving the minimalist upper a sculptural dimension. For performance, this collection features a custom Vibram outsole with rugged tank tread pattern, designed to provide excellent grip and durability.

Inside, the shoes incorporate Sola Foam ADC cushioned insoles for significantly enhanced comfort. Details include 90s-inspired high sidewalls with glossy finishes and rubber trim, balancing retro aesthetics with durability.

Two material options:

Black/Off-White: Crafted with textured long-haired suede for a vintage look.

 

Daphne Blue/White: Made with heavyweight canvas for stronger structural definition and a fresh colorway.

Both colorways retain the classic elastic side panels and padded collar, ensuring easy slip-on convenience. The collection will be available on the Vans official website and at select OTW retailers.
