About the Bianca Chandôn x Vans Old Skool VLT LX "Stressed Red"

Alex Olson started Bianca Chandon in 2013, and the footwear collection this pair comes from carries that label's habit of treating a garment as something already lived in. The off-white canvas upper is hand-distressed rather than printed to look worn, and an all-over pattern of red stars runs across it. Crimson suede reinforces the eyestay, the forefoot and the heel, giving the soft base three points of structure and a second, deeper red to play against the print.

The weathering carries below the upper: the vulcanised rubber midsole has stained white sidewalls, with a ballpoint-style Bianca Chandon signature on the lateral side. White leather side stripes are the only element left clean. It released on August 20, 2022 at $120, VLT LX designating the upgraded build rather than a general-release make-up. Distressed finishes done at the factory are divisive, but the point of one is that every pair arrives slightly different, which a uniformly printed shoe can never be.
