S/DBL x Vans...

Shawn Stussy's S/Double line is collaborating with Vans on a pair of AV Sk8 lows. Dropping in two colorways, black & marine blue...these shoes featuring dope materials such as waxed leather & ballistic nylon. Here's some thoughts from the man himself on the upcoming project...

I was approached by buddies at Vans to take an existing style they were already running and pick some materials, colors and such... I decided to massage the avsk8lo model because I felt they never gave this model enough love in the choices available... So here you have it, thick waxy leather up front, ballistic nylon where normally canvas would be used... Waxed cotton laces and a red leather footbed with some graphics...
