Salehe Bembury vans box candy hearts black New Balance and Cros, but his design resume is much more expansive than those two North American institutions. And while his full catalog has yet to come into fruition, the Los Angeles-based creative has recently unveiled his next partner: Vans.
Touted as a collaboration with Bembury’s Spunge imprint, the newly-surfaced offering from Vault by Vans paints the Authentic silhouette in the fingerprint pattern the 30-something-year-old has referenced across his creative endeavors. Akin to the vans sk8 hi bolt red black, the next project indulges in three colors for its inaugural capsule, with green/blue, cream/pink and cream/brown combinations covering the uppers on the Authentic trio. Midsoles are left simple, but license VN0A4P3I2NF at the heel and accompanying waffle-reminiscent tread may receive updates courtesy of the New York-native.
