Collaborative Camo-Detailed Sneakers

AAPE and Vans Join Forces on the Sk8-Hi Bolt Sneakers

— September 25, 2023 — Fashion
AAPe works in collaboration with Vans on their first project together and it highlights four new styles that are detailed with camo accents starting with the Sk8-Hi Bolt. The shoes are defined by the bright contrast stripe along the side of the silhouette.

This is followed by a pair of the Old Skool Bolt with a lightning bolt motif that is seen extending past the midsole for a dynamic look. Both of the shoes are designed in two colorways starting with a classic olive green camo palette accented with a neon pink detail. The second color is an icy grey that is detailed with a cool blue emblem as the contrasting hue. Both of these are designed with a red tongue with BAPE's logo.
