In time for the spring, a new version of the Vans Sk8-Mid model was unveiled, which has a unique 'Rose Thorns' design.
The name of the new Sk8-Mid model comes from its embroidered embellishments on the sides, with deep crimson flowers and pastel-green leaves shown over top of the brand's usual white logo. The majority of the sneakers are covered in a classic black canvas material, making for a durable build that can be easily cleaned. Further contrasting the black canvas are white laces and thick white soles as well, which boast Van's red box logo on the backs of both heels.
The Rose Thorns Vans are currently available from retailers like OFFICE.
