SLIP ON "KURASHIKI"
These "slip-ons" use Kurashiki canvas, which is widely used for bags and accessories, for the upper. As the name suggests, this canvas is known as the traditional fabric of Okayama, and the fabric is both strong and has a unique firmness. The details of the sneaker are made of nubuck leather, giving it a somewhat classy look.

OLD SKOOL & SLIP ON "YOROKE
The "Slip-On" and "Old School" shown in the photo are made of Japanese fabric made by "yoroke-ori" (weaving). The gradation of the wavy pattern is characteristic of the fabric, giving it a somewhat Japanese taste. It gives a subtle accent to the foot, and releases an atmosphere that has never been seen before in the "Vans" line. Online store (Japanese only)slip-on, ,old-school)

SLIP ON "CHECKER"
These "slip-ons" use the brand's iconic checkered pattern. This model is clad in colors unique to the spring/summer season, and should be worn with basic pants, allowing the feet to take center stage.

OLD SKOOL DX "SPRING COLOR"
Pale tones are said to be one of this season's trends. Even the slightly rugged-looking "old school" shoes look completely different when the colors are used differently. The design is finished in a way that uplifts the wearer's spirits.

SK8-HI DX "SPRING COLOR"
The "Skate High" is in the same pale tone as the "Old Skool" introduced earlier. The color change in the "Vans" classic allows women to coordinate it with their outfits without hesitation. Now is a good time to pair them with wide-leg pants or a skirt with volume.

ERA, OLD SKOOL, SLIP ON "KOJIMA DENIM"
This series uses denim from Kojima, Okayama, the pride of Japan's denim production area, for the upper. The dark blue fabric, which has not been processed, is used to give a completely different impression to the standard model. The color will fade with repeated wear, giving them a different look.

ERA "RIB"
This season, Vans' sneakers are using various fabrics made in Japan for their uppers. The "Era" in the photo is one such example, and this one uses a ribbed textile. Even a standard model can be given a unique look by using a different material.

SLIP ON "RIB
Like the "Era" introduced here, this "slip-on" is made of ribbed fabric made in Japan. It has a bit of a sporty look, and we recommend pairing it with trendy jersey pants. Basic black or white is good, but gray is also fresh.

OLD SKOOL, ERA, SLIP ON "MONALISA"
The prints on the uppers of the three models are eye-catching. Using the "Monna Lisa" inkjet digital textile printing machine, dead leaves are printed on the "Old School," marble on the "Era," and paper on the "Slip-On" with photographic precision.
