The Vans Sk8-Hi and Vans Half Cab come together to create a Vans DIY Hi VLT LX in honor of the “Year of the Rabbit.” The sneaker is complete with layered textures and colors inspired by the zodiac sign of the 2023 Lunar New Year.

Both sneakers are mismatched as the upper boasts various tonal fabrics and furs. The colorway is anchored in smooth grey canvas, with the layered textures being removable for a fully customizable DIY effect. The sneaker comes with checkered pony hair, an embroidered toe box, and fluffy White fur around the Vans Half Cab patches. White rope laces, Red lining, and an Off-White midsole complete the sneaker.

The Vans DIY Hi VLT LX “Year of the Rabbit” releases on January 1, 2023. The retail price is unknown. To purchase, visit Tokyo-based retailer BILLY’S. For more sneaker news and release dates, follow @NiceKicks on Twitter.
