MTV x Vans Pinstripe Era Pro | Imran Potato x Vans Pinstripe SK8-Hi LX Black

American footwear manufacturer and skateboard powerhouse Vans Pinstripe collaborates with creative fashion label Imran Potato for a unique SK8-Hi rendition. The Imran Potato x Vault by Vans Pinstripe collection consists of six silhouettes all with varying upper graphics and themes. This Imran Potato x Vans Pinstripe SK8-Hi LX “Black’ gives the classic skate shoe a hug to keep you locked in.

Imran Potato founder Imran Moosvi began his career by creating custom apparel and footwear involving unofficial collaborations with mainstream brands. This official collaboration with Vans Pinstripe Vault goes heavy on graphic prints. The Sk8-Hi is one of the most iconic Vans Pinstripe sneakers ever, first introduced in 1978 as the “Style 38”. It was the second Vans Pinstripe model to feature the Vans Pinstripe jazz stripe after the Old Skool. The shoe became a fashion staple in skateboard and streetwear, appearing in various collaborations such as this.

This collaboration with Imran Potato features a classic all-black scheme in a canvas base with white stitching. The Vans Pinstripe side stripe gets covered in an embroidered cartoon hand, seemingly holding both sides of the shoe on the quarter panel. Fingers extend to the canvas tongue, where co-branded Vans Pinstripe and Imran Potato labels also appear. More co-branded logos adorn the heel panel to finish off this special SK8-Hi rendition.
