Sole Classics x Vans Vault Sk8-Hi Reissue Zip LX “A-8SC”

In paying homage to Ohio’s own, Neil Armstrong, as well as those that made it possible for a man to do the unthinkable and travel to space, Columbus’s Sole Classics has linked with Vans Vault for a special edition take on the Sk8-Hi Reissue Zip LX. Dubbed the “A8SC,” the sneakers give a nod to specific aspects of the space suit that made the aforementioned journey conceivable.

Thanks to the use of Outlast technology, these shoes has the ability to adhere to the conditions, keeping your feet warm during cold weather and cool during warm weather. The cream-colored kicks then come equipped with contrasting laces and feature a white midsole. Patriotic American flag branding has appropriately been applied to the tongue, as you can look for the space-inspired Vans variation to arrive at Sole Classics on January 31.
