# Elegant Wool Sneakers The Vans Vault 2009 "Peacock" LX is Comfortable and Classy By Danielle Levy | Published 2009-02-14 | Fashion Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/vans-vault-peacoat-lx-sneakers References: [glltn](http://glltn.com/blog/2009/02/13/vans-vault-fall-09-peacoat-lx/) & [vault.vans](http://vault.vans.com/) The [Vans](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/vans-2-eyelet) Vault 2009 "Peacock" LX is a classier version of the Vans Chukka Boot and is available in three colors (grey, black, and navy). The use of wool for the exterior was inspired by--what else--a traditional warm peacoat! The use of wool for the Vans Vault 2009 "Peacock" LX makes these kicks good for the cold winter. I adore the sailor style of the anchor button detail on the side of the shoe. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 3.1/10 - Popularity: 33% | Activity: 52% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 90% men, 10% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - 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 ### What's Driving This Trend - **Elegant Wool Sneakers:** The trend of using wool in sneaker design for a classier and more comfortable option. ### Who This Affects Most - **Fashion:** The fashion industry can explore using wool in sneaker design to offer more elegant and comfortable options. - **Footwear:** The footwear industry can incorporate wool into their sneaker designs to provide a stylish and cozy alternative for consumers. - **Textile:** The textile industry can develop innovative methods for using wool in sneaker manufacturing to cater to the growing demand for fashionable and functional footwear. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Formal Skate Boat Sneakers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/vans-2-eyelet.md) - [Pearl Bead Sneakers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pearlized-pack.md) - [Sophisticated Tassel-Detailed Shoes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/carver-sneaker.md) - [Weatherproof Skateboard Sneakers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/vans-lx-old-skool-36-goretex.md) - [Fashion-Inspired Skate Shoes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/old-skool-36-souvenir.md) - [Vibrant Rugged Skate Sneakers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/vans-varsity-collection.md) - [Textural Update Skate Sneakers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/zhang-quan-1.md) - [Reimagined Skate Classic Shoes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/charms-pack.md) - [Sleek Suede Skate Clog-Mules](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/harbor-mule-v3.md)
