FLAUGE x Vans SK8-HI “Deconstructed”
by Eugene Kan, July 7, 2009

A relatively new theme out of the Vans brand, deconstructed models have given a more minimalist look to the brand’s popular offerings. Taking the iconic checkerboard print, Vans create this SK8-HI “Deconstructed” as an exclusive to Japanese retailer FLAUGE. The changes are subtle with the trademark stripe marked only by stitching.


those aren’t exclusive i seen them at huf and a few other stores
yes, but it’s done in a different way, but I think it’s a bit much.
and it sucks how “hip” Vans are now. I’m sick of seeing little tween girls wearing Vans with Punk bands on them, Shit they’ve never listened to a day in their life. and the same goes for the 18 yr old hipster lop with easy access to mommy’s creit card. just keep buying dunks or crappy bape shit. oh yeah, and remember to keep your stupid gold sticker on your New Era. that is a trend that NEEDS to die now!
i agree with like buttah. xD was thinkin the same thing.
Dem shoez is hot. Are they canvas??
hmm. could’ve sworn vans already did checkers.
