This new Vans Syndicate sneaker pays tribute to Christian Hosoi, the legendary skater with a checkered past. A vulcanized version of the Bash, which WTAPS created in 2008, this shoe is now available to Japanese consumers in two colorways.
Premium suede and nubuck work along the mudguard of both pairs. Meanwhile, the leather is perforated on the foremost panel and heel and is quilted elsewhere. The first pair is black and uses red accents, while the second uses the same colors, but relies on a red majority.
