A grip of great new Vans Classics have landed at KICKS/HI Makaloa. Included in the drop are two sets of chambray uppered styles – black Sk8-His, Old Skools, Eras and Slip Ons as well as the first three styles in blue (pictured above). Not quite as elegant as the chambray Chucks, but a good look nonetheless.

Hit the jump for details shots and a look at the black Vans Classics Chambray Pack.

Printed with The Pixies’ infamous Death To The Pixies artwork, each shoe comes in a simple black on white to match the photo. Now in store at ripe.
