Jason Dill continues a period of heavy activity with Vans, making it three-for-three over the past few weeks with a new colorway for the last pair we showed you. This Jason Dill x Vans Syndicate Derby S takes a left turn from the animal print styling he shared with Anthony Van Engelen last summer, following up on last week’s black/white makeup with a new style in soft wheat suede.

These are in stores now, so have a closer look and let us know how they compare to all those Off the Wall oxfords we’ve come to know and love.
