Vans and Proper once again get together, and this time present probably the largest collaborative effort to ever come from the two. They worked on a series styles and the outcome is a really strong collaboration, that impresses with its quality and details, rather than with loud design.
The two collaborated on the Native American, Authentic Low and Chukka Del Barco LX, some of which come in several colorways. Small details include custom logos and tags on each sneaker, as well as a good choice of materials and colors. Check out the Sneaker Freaker interview with the Proper people on the project here.
