The Sk8-Hi from the collaboration between Vans and Pringle of Scotland features the pattern that links Pringle to Scottish knitwear on Vans' high-top skate shoe: the argyle diamond pattern, here broken down into distinct panels, with rows of small diamonds on the toe and heel and large diamonds in sage green, olive, and burgundy on the upper.
The upper combines a soft-pile fabric, reminiscent of the texture of knitwear, with midnight blue inserts and the classic Sidestripe on the side. The padded collar echoes the model's signature quilted structure, but it's the details that truly highlight the collaboration. The label featuring both names on the tongue, the Pringle lion embroidered on the heel riding a skateboard, and the insole with the double logo set this Sk8-Hi apart, and it's completed by the classic vulcanized outsole.
