February 13th, 2010 by carla_guillermo Stored in: Vans

New York City skateboarding guru Andy Kessler collaborated with Vans Syndicate team to give rise to these two unique sneakers. Though Kessler passed away last summer before these designs came into the market, he will surely appreciate these releases.

In this pack, the Sk8-Hi as well as the Old Skool is now available at selected stores in black soft suede with its leather upper part sitting on the traditional Vans waffle sole. AK logo can also be spotted on the insole while you can see Kessler’s influence on the heel logo with the New York City and Skateboarding designs.

Eric Dressen x Vans Syndicate - Half Cab “S” Pack

Check out these kicks that came to life via a collaboration between Vans Syndicate and former World Street Skateboarding Champion Eric Dressen. This Half Cab S pack features three colorways that are each very laidback and smooth. While these shoes aren’t yet available in stores, you can expect them to hit premium retailers in early March.

The most rustic brown shoe in the pack features a light and dark brown colorway. Another version utilizes multiple shades of grey and black, while the third colorway is a classic black-on-black combination. Each version features a white midsole and thick laces.

These sneakers get inspiration from the classic fedora using felt overlays, ribbon quarter panel, gold leaf custom lettering, and gold satin linings. Via High Snobiety.

Vans Syndicate x Gabe Morford

Vans Syndicate and Gabe Morford have collaborated to design The Half cab and Era. Gabe is a photographer and artist. This Pack will be released in time for the holiday season of 2008.

Let us look at the Half Cab. It has a small black portion as its toe box. The ankle collar is black and so is the small segment in the midsection. The rest of the shoe is covered in a grey colored accent. The mudguard that surrounds the shoe is grey and forms a thick framework for the sneaker. The grey panel at the midsection has a white colored embroidered Half Cab label and a figure of a skateboarder. The midsole is white, while the outsole is beige. A small triangle in black has the engraved letter S to denote Vans. The tread is in a dense lattice of crossing lines. There is a “Vans” logo at the bottom of the midsole at the back of the heel.

Let’s look at the Era now. The ankle of the shoe is cut lower than the Half Cab. Its toe box is a large grey cap that occupies almost half of the shoe. The back of the heel has a large grey colored cap too. Both shoes look good and you can choose your preference based on the framework details.

Vans Syndicate x Steve Olson

Vans Syndicate x Steve Olson - #1

In honor of skater Steve Olson, Vans is releasing two models – the V79 “S” and the V79 Hi “S”. Olson was a revolutionary, introducing the masses to hardcore punk rock culture in the 70′s and helping to mold the skating world into what it is today.

Both of these shoes features the same material and silhouette, the only difference being Hi and Lo. The sneakers offer an all black suede snakeskin upper, which is contrasted by a white rubber midsole and toe.

Even if you aren’t a big skating fan, these black shoes are definitely worth a look. Expect these to be released later this summer. Via Vans.

WTAPS x Vans Syndicate Bash

WTAPS x Vans Syndicate Bash - #1

You may have seen shoes from the WTAPS x Vans Syndicate collection before. However, these are the Bash models that are set to be released this coming weekend. Utilizing aspects we saw back in the 1980s and 1990s, these retro shoes also have modern day details that we see from the latest street designers. If you want a laidback and comfortable pair of sneakers, definitely gives these a look.

Available in white, blue and black, each pair is extremely unique. The blue pair uses black as its secondary color and comes across as the most vibrant of the three sneakers. The white one is subdued with its white and off-white color scheme. The black colorway is a bit flashy due to the bright white shoelaces and midsole. Via WTAPS
