Vans skate company have definitely been implementing premium materials into their latest releases. Take this Vans Vault Garment Pack for example. The Garment pack is made of a Vans Vault Half Cab and Vans Vault 106. Both shoes follow black/grey colorways, along with white midsoles and black wax coated laces. The toes are donned in black leather, while the rest of the shoe sports grey suede and grey logo tags. Both of these Vans are available now at Vans Vault retailers; $70 for the 106s and $75 for the Half Cabs.

There is perhaps no brand that executes perforated materials on sneaker silhouettes with more frequency, and maybe also skill, than the Vans team. But Vans can definitely switch it up- as seen with these pairs of Half Cab’s and Sk8-Hi’s that sport predominantly mesh grey bases with red, white, and nubuck black accents throughout. The red on the Sk8-Hi’s is of a darker hue and exists primarily on the inner lining. The red on the Half Cab’s is more vibrant and is seen on the upper as well as the inner lining. Expect these to drop at select Vans retailers this fall/winter.

Last month we saw a small preview of the Supreme x Vans Half Cab in a checkered design. Well, that was only a small installment of the collaboration between Supreme and Vans for the Fall/Winter 2009 Collection. The Supreme x Vans F/W 2009 Collection consists of three different colorways for the Vans Old Skool and Vans Half Cab. Both shoes use checkered print suede and canvas uppers and white midsoles, but in three different colorways: black, red, and yellow. The Old Skool features the Vans stripe in white leather, and comes with striped laces to offset the checkered pattern. Red is placed on the inner lining to contrast the leather insoles, completing the look that will surely be on everyone’s feet this holiday season. The collection is set to release online and in-store October 8th in the U.S., with a Japan release 2 days later.

It’s nice to see that Vans is still going strong with its less-hyped releases, such as this Perforated Pack. The Vans Perforated Pack consists of one Vans Era and one Vans Half Cab in similar colorways. Both use black suede on the front of the upper, and contrasts it with green perforated panels at the heel. This isn’t your ordinary perforated design, though. The pattern features perforated squares and circles to change it up a bit. Finally, both shoes are completed with a clean white midsole with a black stripe through it, and a gumsole as well. Both are available now online.

The latest pack from Vans is composed of two pairs of the Half Cab and one pair of the Vans Authentic, and is dubbed the “Pinstripe Pack” for good reason. All three sneakers from this pack host pinstripes on the upper and white mid-soles. The Authentic hosts a black base with white pinstripes, while one pair of the Half Cab also yields the same color scheme. The second Half Cab features a grey base with red pinstripes, white laces, and a red inner lining. The Vans Pinstripe Pack is now available at select Vans retailers.

This coming Fall, Vans will celebrate some of America’s finest cities with their “City Pack.” At first blush, you’ll notice that Chicago’s Shedd Aquarium, Los Angeles’ Lockwood Elementary, New York’s Astor Place and San Francisco’s The Embarcadero were used as inspiration. Each city is observed with two legendary Vans’ silhouettes including the Half Cab, Sk8-Hi, Era, and Authentic. Look for the Vans City Pack later this Fall at your favorite skate account!
