Vans Unveils a Forgotten Bones Version of the Classic Slip-On Shoes

— November 2, 2019 — Lifestyle
Skatewear label Vans unveils yet another iteration of its iconic Slip-On footwear model in the form of the monochromatic 'Forgotten Bones' design pattern. The new black and white version of the sneaker showcase contrasting graphics that appear in skeletal silhouettes.

The base foundation is black, informed by canvas materials all throughout the uppers and the themed detailing is adorned in white to display some contrast against the base. There are black metal emblems at the vamp area as well and additional accents are found throughout the heel and the sides. The model features elastic accents on the side, padded collars, and a rubber waffle sole unit to round out the construction. Branding accents can be found on the lateral side, the back, and the insoles.
