Darkside Initiative x Vans Vault “Armored Pack”

Darkside Initiative x Vans Vault “Armored Pack”

Darkside Initiative Vans Vault Armored Pack 01

Vans Vault has always been able to branch out when it comes to specific fabrics used on some of the ubiquitous skating silhouettes that the brand so willingly champions – this is especially true in winter when the brand wants to feature shoes that normally would go back into your closet this time of year due to inclement weather. Here we see the Sk8-Hi LX and Era hit with Superfabric, a textile that refuses to fray, snag, or even tear thanks to micro-armor plates that are also rather weather resistant. Get a full look at the latest winterized take on some Vans Vault classics after the break and stay tuned for the Vans Sk8-Hi LX and Vans Era to arrive at exclusively at Darkside Initiative on November 22nd for $180 and $225.
