CDG x Old Skool LX – Black

Editors Notes & Details

The Comme des Garçons x Vans Old Skool LX is one of those collaborations that earns its cult status quietly. Built on the Vans Originals platform with a suede and textile upper, it's the midsole that does the talking — bold CDG lettering wrapping the foxing tape in a repeat that's graphic without being loud.

Why we picked it
CDG's approach to the Old Skool is minimal intervention, maximum impact — the silhouette stays true while the branding makes it unmistakably a collector's piece.

How to style it
Wear with wide-leg trousers and a relaxed blazer for an off-duty editorial look, or let them anchor a simple black-and-white outfit where the sole does all the work.
