JJJJound and Vans work in collaboration once again and it is made up of three silhouettes. This includes the Vans Sk8-Hi sneaker, the Authentic, and the Slip-On. All of these have a minimal look and are defined by the JJJJound moniker detailing the insole.
All of the sneakers are complete in white and beige tones and constructed from organic cotton canvas and suede materials throughout the upper. The understated looks offer versatile themes for the season and the suede gives it a textural look and feel. The beige and white are color-blocking subtly against one another through the paneling application. The Montreal-baed design studio's branding rounds out the look with a woven beige level along the shoe.
