Los Angeles-based vintage luxury fashion house *Better With Age is bringing its eye for reinvention to Vans with an exclusive new collaboration.
The collection centers on two premium LX styles: a faded navy canvas Vans Authentic and a black suede Half Cab. Both pairs come fitted with custom leather labels, special insoles, and yellowed soles that play neatly into BWA’s vintage approach. The real draw, however, isn’t just the sneakers themselves. It’s what buyers can do to make them their own. Each pair comes with a range of branded patches and additional accessories, allowing every shoe to become a true 1-of-1 once it’s passed through the full customization process. Very crunchy. Very cool. Very Vans.
Vans and BWA are also hosting a launch event at Dover Street Market London on May 15th, where purchasers will be able to personalize their pairs on-site using a range of vintage patches and brass letter beads. The Authentic is priced at $218, while the Half Cab comes in at $248. No wide launch details have been announced yet, though we suspect that will change in the near future.
In other Vans news, the Chanel-inspired “Souvenir” Old Skool is back in a new colorway.
