Vans entire legacy is built on the back of a couple of key plimsoll designs, but they’ve shown in recent years that while an oxford vamp may be superior for skate purposes, the roughly inverted derby style has its own place in the Off the Wall lineup. Designs like the Zero, Pritchard and Spectator have slipped the ‘open laced’ style into our everyday vocabulary and now a new model is set to debut for the fall season. The Vans California Madero continues the move toward refining the classics with an ever so slightly slimmed down sole and two tweed colorups whose leather accents lend a premium touch. Let us know whether the black/white or earthy pair looks better after you’ve seen both below and stick with Sneaker News for word on US availability. via FNG
