“With the Windy City’s harsh weather in full effect, Chicago-based retailer Saint Alfred aligns with Vans Vault to create a specially designed Chukka LX to aid in taking on the fall months with purpose and style. This release evolves from a previously curated series between the two brands and the MLB which saw the use of the Chukka LX sillhouette back in 2010. This time around the renowned Vans model is treated with a reverse waffle sole to prevent a pavement slip and give more tread, as well as a resin coated canvas upper capable of repelling water. Additional details include a premium leather lining and 3 extra laces: hiking laces; red waxed laces; and black waxed laces. Limited to 200 pairs, this collaborative Chukka LX will be available exclusively at Saint Alfred, Saint Alfred’s webstore, Kicks/HI and Bodega. Hypebeast sat down with Saint Alfred general manager Frank DiGiovanni to discuss the project a bit further. Read the interview here.”
