BARACUTA GIVES A BRITISH MAKEOVER TO TWO VANS CLASSICS

Out of the vault and looking snazzy as ever!

You don’t see many collaborations between Britain and Southern California. The Beatles and the Beach Boys never really worked together. We never put, say, kippers in a burrito. However, we have a collab between a British staple and some SoCal legends that is definitely worth your times. Baracuta, the classic British label, has teams up with the Vans Vault for two revamped versions of staple Vans sneakers.

What we have here are the Sk8-Hi Pocket LX-1 and the Old School LX. The former comes in a Dress Blues/Tartan Plaid/Marshmallow colorway, while the latter’s colorway is a Black/Tartan Plaid/Marshmallow affair. Yeah, you don’t see “Dress Blues” and “Tartan Plaid” coming up much in Vans shoe designs. We have to say, we’re really into the Baracuta x Vans Vault Sk8-Hi Pocket LX-1 out of these two, although the Old School LX is no slouch. In addition to having an actual pocket on the sides of the shoe, the plaid side panels look great with the white (“marshmallow”) and dress blues aspects. We also really dig the look of the Vans tongue tab. These two collabs are going to be available on December 5. If you want to take a look at them before then, you can do so.
