Thanks to Jahan Loh, the Vans brand made a big splash recently with a pair of Mountain Mid’s. However, we now have shots of two pairs of Vans Sk8 Mid WR’s that just dropped as part of the brand’s fall/winter collection. One pair is done up in predominantly grey suede with slight white accents, while the second comes in predominantly black with very few blue touches. What’s perhaps more enticing about these pairs of Sk8 Mid’s is the fact that they are decked with cotton inner lining for comfort and protection from the cold, because we all know that skateboarders must skateboard- regardless of weather. You can scoop these up now at select online and in-store Vans accounts for approximately $65.

This limited edition comes in a clean black/purple colorway, using black snakeskin leather throughout the shoe, mainly on the strap. Underneath the strap is Jahan’s signature in purple to match the purple tongue. The midsole is white with a black vulcanized toe, and the Vans Jahan Logo is stitched at the side to make this collabo complete. This is a very limited release, kept to 200 in quantity in Taiwan.

Not too long ago we saw the adidas Originals line draw from the rich African heritage and design a set of sneakers sure to remind many people of the different cultures on that continent. Now, it is Vans searching for cultural influence. The pair of Vans Slip-On’s and Sk8 Hi’s pictured here are part of a “Mexican Blanket” collection reportedly dropping during the 2009 holiday season at certain Vans retailers. The same pattern that envelopes this pair of Slip-On’s can be seen on the middle and back of the Sk8 Hi’s, leaving more room towards the front for a purple suede upper with red shoe laces. Check in with several Vans retailers as different ones have already begun to receive this collection and are ready for sale.
