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.
