Best of Both Worlds

May 30, 2024 by Frendy Lemorin in Fashion


“Best of both worlds, ohhhh” My fault, I got a little carried away there with my singing. As I was trying to conjure up a title for this Vans x Proenza Schouler piece, Jay Z and R Kelly’s 2002 banger “Best of Both Worlds,” came to mind simply because their latest footwear offering—like the song—is a fire blend of two distinctive genres.

The New York City-based luxury womenswear brand and Vans took it upon themselves to create a sleek and elevated iteration of the iconic ‘70s classic Slip-On.  Featuring exaggerated proportions in buttery leather, the Puffy Slip-On (no diddy…sorry, I had to) come in three conservative colorways which include Black, Ecru and Resin.

In addition to its premium calfskin leather uppers, the Vans x Proenza Schouler Puffy Slip-On has a custom Proenza Schouler footbed, oversized heel scab, and polished glossed sidewalls. Furthermore, Vans’ infamous skateboarding symbol is etched into the signature rear blocks.

The sumptuous skate slip-ons are available to shop now via the Proenza Schouler online store and OTW by Vans for $200. Good luck!
