The Vans Slip-On Womens has surely had a busy year with its almost constant transformations. Seen only a few months ago in a velvet retooling by the Japanese label Needles, the model is now taking a few notes from others’ books to embrace a welcome maximalism. With the classic Vans Slip-On Mens silhouette being internationally recognized, it’s only natural to completely transform the upper with an overall satin fabrication and hits of floral embroidery. Arriving in two base tones — one a more subtle black with the other being a bold, deep red — the rest of the upper is adorned with a colorful range of old flowers through a luxe brocade finish.
Nepenthes’ influence on the world of Japanese streetwear continues to grow with the help of its numerous subsidiaries the likes of Engineered Garments and Needles. After the latter just released a collaborative collection of luxuriously
crafted Vans Slip-On Cheap US, the former is set to lend its hand to the famed Ultra BOOST. Daiki Suzuki’s take on the Three Stripes classic boasts a colorful construction consisting of a thick Pimeknit base done up in royal blue with an array of hues on its midfoot Stripes as well as co-branded insoles sporting red and yellow.
The classic Vans Slip-On Sale is getting a new look just in time for the start of winter with the addition of sherpa fleece to the “Checkerboard” colorway. The typically canvas upper of the shoe has been swapped for an entirely fleece construction. The outside of this fleece is adorned in the timeless “Checkerboard” style while the inside looks to be a mix of fleece and leather. This material change is perfect for the harsh cold of the winter days that lie ahead, letting you rock that classic Vans look without having to freeze your toes off in a thin canvas shoe.
Bold prints and classic colorways are the name of the game for Vault this season, as the Vans Slip-On Discount receives both a leopard print and a classic checkered variation, while the Authentic arrives in both leopard and cow prints. If animal prints aren’t really your thing, the collection has you covered with classic colorways as well: the Epoch Sport, Old Skool, and Slip-On all feature simple, refined colors like black, cumin, and different shades of blue.
