OTW by Vans R Studio L.A. CA Drop Authentic Prima & Future Clog
OTW by Vans R Studio L.A. CA releases Authentic Prima and Future Clog styles as part of an experimental footwear collection. The project is developed under Vans’ OTW line and focuses on material exploration, updated proportions, and alternative construction methods. The Authentic Prima reworks the classic Vans silhouette using premium materials and a streamlined profile, while the Future Clog introduces a slip-on form with a sculpted outsole and enclosed upper. Both models are produced in Sterling and Ruby colorways.
Materials include leather, suede, and molded components selected for durability and structure. The Authentic Prima maintains a low-profile sole with refined paneling, while the Future Clog features a thicker base designed for everyday wear. Branding is minimal, with subtle OTW and Vans identifiers integrated into the design. The collection is released in limited quantities and distributed through select retailers as part of OTW by Vans’ design-led footwear program.
