Vans Smart Denim Trainer Line

By Holly Pyne

17 November 2014

While the rest of the shoe industry obsesses over new woven structures, technicolour designs and high tech tricks, Vans... isn't. Which is actually a good thing.

The new line of Vans Era 59 CA is low-key, mature and - even more bizarrely - denim. Passing on their usual canvas build, the Era 59's gain a rugged complexion thanks to their unconventional "denim suede" fabric, partnered with chunky-look rope laces.

Three colours are available: coriander (light brown), Night Forest (green) and black (black), each gaining a splash of vibrancy thanks to a colourful sockliner.

Currently selling on Titolo for £65, you'd do well pairing these with blue jeans of the same fabric. Best not go for a denim shirt as well though - we don't think anyone can pull off triple denim.
