Sole Classics will again look to the skies for inspiration on their latest collaborative project with Vans.
This pair is more local in its focus than the Sole Classics x Vans Sk8 Hi. Rather than go fully celestial, the shoe looks at the genesis of man's flight here on earth with a colorway that's inspired by the Wright Brothers. Those pioneers called Dayton, Ohio home, and Sole Classics is located in Columbus, so the connection here is a strong one. The sneaker, a Vans Style 36 wears a crackled leather upper, a reflective gold stripe across the side, and a solid gum sole.
Sole Classics will release the Vans Style 36 "SC Flyer" this Saturday, March 14 at 10 am, with an online release to follow at noon.
