Its very name suggests that these won’t actually be used for skating and the premium construction with which they’ve been crafted is the kind of thing you’d rather preserve and enjoy for years than shred on a skateboard, but this new drop from Vans Vault does indeed connect directly to Off the Wall’s skate heritage. The Vans Vault Spectator gives us a hint that reminds the ‘#46’ Era deck shoe really is just a traditional Oxford, this similarly sleek silo having been crafted more in the style of a derby shoe. Tonal black and brown ‘hairy suede’ pairs both have ‘versatility’ written all over them, and both are available now at top-tier Vans stockists including their DQM teamup in New York, The General.
