The Vans DQM General knows the formula for a comfortable and casual summer shoe. The NYC-based boutique has recently outfitted a series of Old Skool skate silhouettes with premium, nylon mesh construction. Classic meets modern in the design cues especially with each shoe receiving an embroidered side-stripe, a matching sock-liner, and a heel pull tab made of cotton webbing. As for colorways, each sneaker is covered in bold hues spanning black, white, navy and burgundy.

Peruse all of the Mesh Old Skool LX iterations above and purchase each pair at The General in New York starting July 1.
