Following its recent premium collaboration with Blends, Vans has unveiled its Premium Woven Checkerboard Slip-Ons pack available in “Checkerboard/Snow White,” “Pink/Snow White” and “Brushed Gold/Snow White.” The premium, assorted color renditions of the classic checkerboard slip-on Vans feature all the trademark Vans components, from its signature waffle outsole to its padded collars for extra comfort and support.

Constructing the upper from two pieces of leather, Vans split the vamp panel and adorned it with a unique diamond woven patch that stands out against the split-contrast leather construction. Each pair is finished with a “Marshmallow” midsole to neatly offset the slip-on’s design, and each features tonal Vans branding throughout.

The Vans Premium Woven Checkerboard Slip-On is available to purchase now online and in-store at Vans.
