Supreme team up with Vans once again to create velvet renditions of the Sk8-Hi and Era shoes.

Vans and Supreme have had a long standing love affair and this latest collaboration continues their very illustrious relationship. Taking the classic Sk8-Hi and Era silhouettes, Supreme have covered the side panels in a rich (and slightly too bold for some) velvet, adorned with embroidered stars in black to match the black detailing, toe box and midsole. A traditional gum outsole and white tongue tab finish these off nicely.

There’s a strong brothel creeper theme going on here and although the models haven’t been tampered with to reference this, the materials, colour choices and detailing certainly suggest that this is where the inspiration came from.

The pack hit landed at Supreme London this morning and is also available on the recently launched EU online store.
