The Vans WTAPS x Sk8 Hi LX 'Flame' is a shoe that was born from a collaboration between Vans and W)TAPS. The result is a shoe that takes inspiration from hot rod culture, with prominent flame embroidery running down the side of the shoe. The upper is made from black suede and canvas, with a blue woven label tag on the tongue. The rubber midsole continues the all-black theme, making this a shoe that is sure to turn heads. Drawn from the 13-piece collaboration between Vans and W)TAPS that released in July 2018, the Sk8-Hi LX ‘Blue Flame’ borrows a page from hot rod culture. The high-top, featuring an all-black finish on the suede and canvas upper, adds prominent flame embroidery spanning the entire length of the side panel. The blue coloring on the graphic is matched by a woven label tag on the tongue, while the rubber midsole continues the all-black theme.
