Vans Vault Buffalo Boot LX

Posted by Alex Kroviak | Oct 30, 2009

For Spring of 2010, the Vans Vault will unveil a new pseudo-boot silhouette in the “Buffalo Boot LX,” which mixes up the looks of some of your favorite Vans shoes with an outdoor appeal. Debuting in both a black/black and Coffee/brown color-up, these channel the outdoor appeal of a hiking boot without losing that classic Vans look.

The white vulcanized sole may not be as tough as the one found on the Switchback, which we just took a look at a few weeks ago. The uppers utilize premium materials, mixing suede around theit toes and lower portions, while leather is worked in near the ankles. Rather than opt for a label like the Half Cabs we often see, Vans branding appears as a stamp on the outer side. On the top side, striped fuschia boot-style laces loop through gold metal eyelets. Expect these in March, 2010.
