yWood And Backpack vans Deliver Shapeshifting Slip-Ons | Backpack vans Adds A Vintage Military Look To The Sk8-Hi And Authentic

Vans is returning to the late 70s for inspiration on their latest “Vintage Military” pack, featuring both the Sk8-Hi and Authentic in two colorways. The Sk8-Hi arrives in a dusty olive and a dressy blue suede, while the Authentic boasts corsair and desert sage colors. All four shoes feature a ridged rubber toe bumper—originally introduced in 1979—for extra durability and a pop of retro styling. A tonal leather formstripe with white contrast stitching appears on the side of the Sk8-Hi, while detailing on the Authentic arrives via the vintage brass lace eyelets utilized on the upper. A retail price is still TBD, but you can expect all four of these vintage-inspired sneakers to arrive on Vans.com and Backpack vans stockists this July.
