Here’s something entirely fresh and new. END. Clothing has teamed up with Vault by Vans, to bring this cozy Winter-themed OG Old Skool LX to us. Available in a Black or Marshmallow knit pattern, sitting on top of a turtledove mid-sole, and featuring premium leather panels throughout the shoe. To get a better idea of the thought and inspiration behind this release, here’s a little excerpt from END.:
“As winter draws closer and we look to rejuvenate, it’s time to master the art of home hibernation. Now the slate-grey skies and notoriously bleak weather has arrived, overindulge in comfort and hunker down using the art of Hygge; a calm togetherness and celebration of life’s simple pleasures. This END. x Vault by Vans OG Old Skool ‘Nordic Wool’ merges sustainability, fashion and the Danish way of living into a shoe that works well on the sidewalk and skateboard.
Evolving the classic with turtle dove woollen uppers and a natural leather sidestripe, marshmallow hues and a gum rubber outsole round off the hyggelig atmosphere, like mallows roasting over a crackling log fire.
Taking Hygge into the great outdoors, embark on long walks with cosy serenity at your feet.”
END. is holding an online raffle system for a chance to purchase either colorway, that runs until 11.24.17 1:00 BST. All winners are chosen randomly, and will be notified within 3 hrs. of the draw finishing.
