After the “Hawaiian Thunderstorm” I-5923 with adidas Originals, UK sneaker retailer size? returns with another exclusive release. The new drop sees Vans create a new patchwork take on its Old Skool silhouette, with the design referencing the off-cuts of materials found on the factory floor.

Other features include the use of red, blue and yellow suede on the toe box, lacing unit and heel tab. Strictly limited to just 600 pairs, the Vans Old Skool “Factory Floor” will be available exclusively via the size? web store and physical locations on April 13.
