Vans UA ComfyCush Era Flerfarvede sneakers, Vans has launched its newest batch of re-worked classics under the “Made for the Makers” line. For its latest, however, the California-institution is forgoing the all-black ensembles of previous pairs for a military-inspired trio co-created by BJ Betts.
For his first-ever collaboration with the “OFF THE WALL” brand, Betts has drawn not only from his 20+ Flames in the tattoo industry, which he’s helped define via a series of guides on lettering, but also his family. Spill and slip-resistant iterations of the Old Skool, Slip-On, and Authentic don original camouflage patterns in either muted green, blue, or sand inspired by Betts’ grandfather.
“My Grandfathe[r],” said Betts,”was one of the best men that ever walked this earth. [T]his whole project is dedicated to [him and his military service].”
Furthermore, UltraCush sockliners deliver all-day comfort for the “makers” who work on their feet and need something rugged enough to seamlessly transition from job to play. Each Vansguard® coated-shoe also features other personal touches from the Kennett Square, Pennsylvania-based artist, including a signature on the insole and a nod to 1971 – his birth Flame – alongside each model’s original style code.
Enjoy a closer look at Betts’ “Made for the Makers” collection ahead, and find all three pairs available on Vans.com right now. If you’re in Philadelphia, local boutique el producto Vans Comfycush Slip-on EU 43 Black Frost Gray is carrying to capsule, too.
