Further to previous collaborations, Patta and Vans are proud to present the Vans x Patta Sk8-Hi Collection. While the previous collaborations were focused on the Vans Old Skool silhouette, Patta opted to rework another Vans classic: the Sk8-Hi.

The Vans x Patta Sk8-Hi edition will be available in two versions: Langoustine/Black and Hydro/Black. Both colors combine premium ripstop materials on the shoe uppers, a suede toebox, flap and back heel, leather signature "jazz" striping and lining, and feature the Patta Script Logo on the midsole. Every pair is finished off with Team Patta laces, paired with matching “P” lace locks.

Every pair also comes with an additional set of thick premium cotton ‘Team Patta’ laces.

The Vans x Patta Sk8-Hi collection is set to release at the Patta Amsterdam and London stores on Saturday, December 2, and will also be offered online at patta.nl from Monday December 4 onwards.

Vans celebrates its long-lasting BMX heritage with the debut of the Style 112 Pro in team rider Dakota Roche’s signature colorway. Available now, the Style 112 Pro is built with proven Vans UltraCush technology to fit the demands of BMX’s heaviest street rider, Dakota Roche. Dakota Roche’s signature Style 112 Pro is featured in the Vans California Native Collection, designed in black suede and a contrasting burnt olive Sidestripe. Built with Vans’ original waffle outsole and Duracap reinforced uppers, this silhouette delivers unrivaled durability and a firm no-slip grip. The Style 112 Pro was inspired by feedback from the Vans BMX team, employing Vans Vulc Lite construction and UltraCush HD sockliners to keep the foot close to the pedal while providing the highest level of impact cushioning needed for Dak’s unforgiving riding style.

The Premium Inspired looks the part. So if you're on a limited budget but still want a bike with the right geometry and looks, the Inspired has you covered. the 20.5" toptube indicates that this 2017 Complete bike caters to the smaller/younger riders out there. The Premium Team grips, Premium Kinetic plastic pedals and Premium alloy topload stem will make your friends only a little bit jealous and wait until they see the Premium CK tires in 2.4" size front and read. That padded Premium seat isn't a bad idea either. Two colour options available. Check the pics and then pick your favourite.
