Vans x Proper – Native American, Authentic Low & Chukka del Barco LX

Vans x Proper – Native American, Authentic Low & Chukka del Barco LX

 proper-vans-2008-holiday-01.jpg

Last Thanksgiving, we saw the first collabo between Vans and Proper on a hot satin-finish pack of Sk8-His.  They’re back again this year, and instead of Sk-8s, we get two Native American one-pieces, twin Authentic lowtops and a double-shot of the boat shoe-like Chukka del Barco LX.

They’re all done in premium materials that look great in the photos we have after the jump.  While the Native Americans are done in canvas with a suede checkerboard pattern on the heel, the Authentics are more similar to the Chukkas — they have nautical flags to put the finishing touch on your sea legs.  Proper pampered each pair with thicker insoles like the ones in Off the Wall’s Syndicate releases and artsy boxes that reflect the “Nautical . . . But Nice!” theme that guided these designs.

Just like last year, we expect them in December.  Via SNKRFRKR
