Notre and Vans Rework the Stripe on the Iconic Old Skool Sneakers
References: notre-shop & highsnobiety
Notre and Vans work in collaboration to re-imagine one of the most iconic footwear silhouettes, the Old Skool sneakers. The footwear model is complete in a new and cozy update, with the most notable change found at the medial sides. The signature side stripe is altered to show two hands coming together and shaking one another.
The subtle change is unnoticeable from afar, as it is complete in white against a light gray base. There are also green tones across the uppers over the heel counter, tongue tab, lacing system, and toe cap. The gray and green uppers are constructed from fuzzy suede materials and give off a warm textural aesthetic. The new Notre and Vans collaborative Old Skool sneakers are now available for purchase at Notre.
