# Desert Storm Skate Shoes The Vans 106 Camouflage Pack is Out of Sight By Michael Hines | Published 2010-10-24 | Fashion Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/vans-106-camouflage-pack References: [highsnobiety](http://www.highsnobiety.com/news/2010/10/15/vans-106-camouflage-pack/) & [flatspot](http://www.flatspot.com/products/vans-106-vulcanized-desert-camo-incense) Keep your feet looking cool and concealed with the [Vans](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bape-and-vans) 106 Camouflage Pack. This pack features the Chukka Low or "106" with either a [woodland or desert camouflage](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/leaf-camo) finish. I've never worn a lick of [camouflage clothing](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/crocs-real-tree-pack) in my life, but I would gladly lace up a pair of shoes from the Vans 106 Camouflage Pack. Both the desert and woodland designs look smooth and natural, which is exactly what you want when you design a shoe with an atypical pattern or style. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 1.5/10 - Popularity: 18% | Activity: 18% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 70% men, 30% women - Primary generations: Gen Z, Millennial - Top markets: North America ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Fashion](https://www.trendhunter.com/fashion) > [Shoes](https://www.trendhunter.com/shoes) ## Key Themes ### Why This Trend Is Growing - **Camouflage Footwear:** Opportunity to create innovative and stylish footwear designs using camouflage patterns. - **Nature-inspired Fashion:** Potential for fashion brands to incorporate natural elements and patterns into their designs. - **Distinctive Shoe Styles:** Opportunity to develop unique shoe designs that stand out from traditional patterns and styles. ### Industries Being Reshaped - **Footwear:** Disruptive innovation opportunities in creating unconventional and eye-catching camouflage footwear. - **Fashion:** Fashion brands can explore nature-inspired designs to appeal to customers looking for unique and eco-friendly fashion choices. - **Design:** Opportunity for designers to experiment with unconventional shoe styles and patterns for a distinctive look. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Camo-Print Colorful Skate Shoes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bape-and-vans.md) - [Tactical Camo-Tinged Sneakers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/book-1-sneaker.md) - [Reworked Rugged Skate Shoes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/oamc-x-vans.md) - [Premium Stylish Hiking Sneakers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/old-skool-36-trail.md) - [Fashion-Inspired Skate Shoes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/old-skool-36-souvenir.md) - [Weatherproof Skateboard Sneakers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/vans-lx-old-skool-36-goretex.md) - [Pearl Bead Sneakers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pearlized-pack.md) - [Collaborative Bright Skate Sneakers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/old-skool-36.md) - [Winter-Ready Skateboard Shoes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/vans-old-skool-premium-goretex.md)
