Once again Neighborhood and Supreme join forces and announced today their next capsule collection to be released soon.
It’s not the first time these two brands get together, but it is for sure the largest offering we have seen in a collaboration effort to date. The Neighborhood x Supreme collection consists of New Era Caps, denim, hoodies, Stadium Jackets, M-65 Jacket, logo t-shirts, Larry Clark t-shirt and a Vans collaboration as well, which consists of a Chukka and a Sk8-Hi.
What can we say? It looks good. Nothing too crazy, mostly subtle and on point. It will be released on December 28th in the Supreme NY and LA stores. The Japanese stores will get some part of it already on December 15th, the rest on January 2nd. You do not have to be a genius to know that this collection will fly out of the stores. So, if you intend to go, make sure you are there early.

After Marc Jacobs, Vans now seems to have gotten together with high fashion designer Paul Smith. The pack consists of a Sk8 Hi and a Chukka. The Sk8 Hi comes with an upper made up of brown suede and canvas. The Chukka comes in all grey canvas. Both sneakers feature the signature multicolor stripe pattern of the design as the inner lining and on the back heel and tongue tags. Apparently there will also be an Era and a slip-on in the pack.

Paul Smith is after Marc Jacobs definitely a good fit, because even though they are both high fashion designers they always mix in collaborations and pieces in general which are less expensive then their regular lines. Pics via Footurama.
The pack will be released next year, as part of the Vans Spring ‘08 collection. After the jump more pictures.

Just in time for the colder months to come Vans releases the Houndstooth Pack. The pack comes in two colorways and offers 4 sneakers in each colorway – Era, Chukka, Sk8 Hi and the Slip-On. The pack comes in a grey and a hunting green/brown colorway and reminds us of classic British slippers.
If you need something that goes with your t-shirts and hoodies as well as with a shirt, these classics will work just fine. They are available now at Flauge. Check out all 8 sneakers in this pack in detail after the jump.

A while ago we presented the Vans Vault Fall 2007 collection and thought we had seen it all. They added two more packs to the collection, that you should also see soon at a Vault retailer close to you.
The Pure Life Pack consists of two Sk8 Hi’s and three Slip-Ons. All sneakers feature a “Pure Life” graphic and the pack comes in black, brown/khaki and white colors. The other pack is the Kvadrat Pack, which consists of two Chukkas, two Slip-Ons and two Prison Issues. The uppers of all sneakers are woven and thus the look is overall premium, but simple.

Here a look at a first Greedy Genius Fall 2007 release, a red Chukka with a premium leather upper. The quilted part on the shoe is also a nice touch and gives it overall a more premium look. Greedy Genius was always about the loud colors, strong graphics – let’s see how they will do when everything goes into a more subtle style. This Chukka is definitely the right direction.

We are getting close again to the release of the new W)Taps Bones Series by Vans Syndicate. Last year this was one of the most successful collaborations by Vans and this years we predict to not be any different.
The new W)Taps Bones Series consists of a Slip-On, Chukka, Sk8 Hi and an Era. They come in navy blue with a bones all over print. Unfortunately these will in Europe only be available at Foot Patrol. In the US and Japan you will have an easier time coming across them. Pics from Boon Magazine via Vitasoy.
