Taka Hayashi x Vans Chukka Gore LX

Taka Hayashi is to Vans as Hiroshi Fujiwara is to Nike. Both have been integral pieces to brand elevation and sneakerheads have become trained to expect an unparalleled touch in design from Taka and Hiroshji. Vans’ next venture with the artist/designer is with the Chukka Boot; the classic silhouette has been transformed into the Chukka Gore LX with some fine-tuned design touches like camel brown suede, coffee brown leather, wingtip-style detailing, bold striping, and more. Expect these in May at select Vans shops at $130 a piece.
