let's talk about old/weird(?) sneakers

[kH0yA Sw@Gp0o]

^do it. imagining thick tube socks and cropped pants x_x 

re: camper x bernhard willhelm
i feel like BWs are reinterpreted hiking boots; sorta. very extreme reappropriation; the end result something entirely new.
posted white/off-white ones (perfect imho) from oki-ni on my tumblr the other day-- kicking myself because i cannot afford: 


also on the topic of white/off-white "hiking" sneakers are these KVAs; this model and its higher iteration usually come on a semi lugged cupsole thing but for some reason this one's on that generic portugal sole (are kvas even made in portugal??? meh)

they okay. 

also the navy/khaki/pink pump furys are part of the garbstore collab, according to hypebeast

Is the front part of the sole on that Pump Fury different?

[MichaelJJCC]

Osiris D3's are somewhat irrelevant, but I just have to post them here. Everybody wore these shits when I was growing up:

 

 

 

I remember watching the storm video back in the day and wanting these so bad, But my mom refused to buy em' because they were like $135 at the time.

[Nebulae]

nice. i've been contemplating getting a pair of the fragment ones for quite some time.

damn dude

those colorways are fuckin' nice

would jump on this one ASAP if given the chance

assuming they're real hard to find and expensive tho :/

[sembilan]

[chris w.]

is there anywhere online where one could purchase the original sk8 hi in white leather? i think it was reissued a couple years back via vans vault... haven't had any luck with my search.

 

[kH0yA Sw@Gp0o]

^wrong thread bro

loljk. maybe you'd be better off posting in small questions thread or vans thread?

i think the panelling on the toe is what's different >_> not entirely sure tbh haha

theres a bunch on ebay and not too expensive either. all around 220 BIN or best offer. Ive seen some auctions every now and then end around $100 as well.

 

i personally prefer the obsidians to the grey but i don't really like the purple zippers..

 

[fasttimes]

The samples had red zippers which looked much nicer. There was also a black pair with white zippers I'm disappointed never made it to retail.

sounds like the factory that was doing the trainers for Raf, KVA and co have been moved there. And since then, the soles aren't completely flat. Looks bad.

KVA...He, more than often, had good footwear at both his namesake label and at Dior.

[kH0yA Sw@Gp0o]

^find the white hiking ones nice; imagining on the chunkier sole more appealing though.

re: meriwethers
i like the brightness of the mainline ones, too.
acg referentials v strong with the obnoxious colors.

wonder if i'll see anyone in these

[wunder]

[kH0yA Sw@Gp0o]

^yep, all three have popped up b4.

or at least i *think* air killers have been in this thread before. x_x

KVA competent but derivative.
