About the Vans Old Skool "Trippy Cord - Black"
Corduroy on a skate shoe is a texture decision before a colour one. The ribbed wale runs across the quarter panels and catches light along every ridge, so a flat black upper picks up depth and movement that neither canvas nor suede would give it. Cut around the model's panelling, the direction of the cord changes from the toe to the heel, which is part of why the make-up carries the Trippy name.
It released on October 27, 2022 at $70. Corduroy is warmer and softer than the materials the line usually uses, making this a cold-weather pair by nature, though it crushes at the flex point sooner than suede does and the nap flattens where the shoe bends. The rest is standard: a padded ankle collar, a reinforced toe, metal eyelets and a vulcanised rubber sole with the waffle tread. True White laces, stripe and foxing tape hold the contrast so the texture is the only thing asking for attention.
