Vans' Pretty Cow-Patterned Skate Shoe Brings Farm to Skatepark
Having long since earned its stripes, Vans is now coming for its spots. This printed Vans Authentic sneaker isn't really a jungle dweller, though. It's more of a farm frolicker, if you will.
This special Vans Authentic sneaker, made exclusively for Japanese lifestyle brand Urban Research Doors, wears a textured cow-print-style upper that brings a nice bovine touch to the thrash-happy shoe.
Elsewhere, the sneaker wears a slightly distressed white outsole, which has become something of a hallmark for recent Vans outputs like the "La Habana" sneaker or the Chanel Old Skool 36 "Souvenir" sneaker. Pre-worn bottoms are the belle of the ball where hot new Vans are concerned.
This particular cow-printed stunner is available exclusively on the Urban Research Doors website for about $50, but when it comes to crazy cow sneakers, Vans does this.
Beyond this absolute unit of an exclusive sneaker, Vans has always been quite fond of cattle-coded footwear, as evidenced by barnyard faves like the black-and-white cow-print Vans Authentic sneaker and the furry pony hair slip-on, which, despite how it sounds, wears a cow-like print as well.
That is to say, Vans more than knows its way around a barn or two. Talk about milking it.
