Vans has teamed up with Los Angeles based Della, a socially responsible fashion company known for their dedication to empowering the women of the Volta region, of West Ghana, West Africa. If the design doesn’t hook you, perhaps the purpose will. There, these women handcraft fabrics through a traditional batik process, which produces a one-of-a-kind print, which makes for some truly custom Vans, with no two pairs having the same exact look. Della went with the classics on this release, choosing a Sk8-Hi Reissue, Era, Authentic, Sk8-Hi Slim, and Slip-On. Colors were inspired by the landscape and culture of the West African region. Accompanying these, are a few hand bags which can all be seen over on the Vans site, and are available for purchase on their webstore right now.
