Skate Shoes PH is struggling to keep up with the news and our wallets are struggling to keep up with these awesome Vans releases lately. Next up is something from down under. Perth, Australia's Highs & Lows has a history of releasing highly coveted collaborations and now they are turning their heat onto Vault line.
They chose the Old Skool Zip LX as their base model and transformed it into a sick pair with full grain leather on the vamps and heel counters, and the sidewalls are comprised of s. Highs & Lows' scales logo is stamped in silver on both heels. The model's eye stays are lined with silver eyelets and black, waxed laces are a good addition. The midsoles feature the same style seen on the recent WTAPS releases with the pure white on the bottom and black above where the foxing stripe would be.
The Sk8 Hi LX comes with a tonal black colorway from the midsole to the ankle collar. There's oily, all black premium leather covers the vamp and heel counters while the quarters make use of the same ballistic mesh seen on the Old Skool, but this time, it is printed with repeat logo pattern. Both pairs have clear outsoles through which alternating "HIGHS" and "LOWS" branding can be seen. The lining of both pairs is also the same, though we're not sure what it is.
The Vault by Vans x Highs & Lows Old Skool Zip and Sk8 Hi LX will be available this Saturday, September 17th at Vault retailers like Sneakersnstuff. Check your local for availability.
