Carpet Company Creates a Vans Skate Old Skool 36+

— January 8, 2025 — Fashion
Carpet Company has showcased its latest collaborative efforts alongside Vans with the look at the Old Skool 36+ model. The official visuals have just launched and it brings close attention to the details of the colorful sneaker. The colorway is designed as a nod to the Style 36 original black and yellow colorway launch. It is elevated even further with a textural accent of a faux croc skin palette.

This connects the model to the joint collection that dropped for the Fall 2024 season. Each pair is limited as only 1,977 models have been made -- all of these are numbered individually and elevated with details including embroidered accents, a Velcro tongue patch, custom Arabic labels, the iconic rubber logos, and the waffle tread.
