Wow. I don’t think anyone was expecting this from the upcoming Spring line from Vans Vault and Taka Hayashi. Taka’s well known for his “outside the box” designs, but this pair takes that aspect to a whole other level. Straying from his trademark Native American theme, these seem to have more influence from some Japanese and European footwear labels. The materials are of the finest leather, and the craftsmanship looks on-point as well. The buckles are the attention grabber, and the crepe sole gives it personality. It’s wild. It’s detailed. It’s Taka! Available in two colorways: Black and Sunrise. Look for these in February at your local Vault dealer.
