Sneaker enthusiasts and collectors, prepare to be dazzled by the latest collaboration Vault by Vans x Shane Gonzales, the creative genius behind MIDNIGHT STUDIOS. This partnership brings you the “Star Spangled Glamour” capsule, a unique and nostalgic celebration of all-American fashion which draws inspiration from iconic Western styles, denim jeans, and leather jackets – a true tribute to the glamour of Sunset Boulevard in Hollywood, California.
The “Star Spangled Glamour” collection features three stunning Vault by Vans silhouettes: the Old Skool VLT LX, Authentic Zip VLT LX, and Sk8-Hi Reissue Strap VLT LX. Gonzales’ rock ‘n roll-infused approach has given these classic footwear styles a fresh twist, incorporating all-American motifs and a rich fusion of chrome, denim, and leather.
Leading the charge in this collection is the Old Skool VLT LX, adorned with premium black leather and eye-catching Western embroidery reminiscent of classic cowboy boots. The Authentic Zip VLT LX follows suit, capturing the essence of denim jeans with an indigo denim upper, hidden laces, chrome zippers, and buttons. Finally, the Sk8-Hi Reissue Strap VLT LX showcases black leather and rider jacket details like collars, epaulets, and buckles, rounding up this spectacular range.
For Shane Gonzales, this collaboration holds a special place in his heart. As a teenager, he and his friends skated to school wearing Vans, customizing and wearing them out until they were no longer usable. He felt compelled to bring his personal touch to the three Vans silhouettes that defined his youth, imbuing them with timeless all-American motifs that will age gracefully.
