Frequent collaborators, Stüssy and Nike are coming together once again for arguably their most opinion splitting silhouette yet as the duo officially announce the release date of their upcoming Vandal High in Deep Royal Blue.
From the Air Penny 2, the Air Max 2013 and now the Vandal High, Stüssy and Nike’s latest skate-ready silhouette has a history of leaving people underwhelmed and has since been forgotten by many in the streetwear community since its launch in 1984.
Nike‘s Vandal silhouette was released only two years after the iconic Air Force 1, they also share many similarities and this is widely believed to be the main reasons why the silhouette never reached even close to the same levels of success as the AF1.
Stüssy are looking to change the way the world initially reacted to the Vandal by giving the silhouette a well deserved rework that lands at Nike SNKRS next week and online at Stüssy this week.
Seen in the gallery above, the high-top silhouette arrives constructed in one of Stüssy‘s preferred materials of hemp and has been decorated in an upper of Deep Royal Blue with black and white details.
Further features include a woven Nike midfoot Swoosh arriving in black, a Stüssy x Nike branded “Stand Firm” ankle strap in blue, black, and red, Stüssy’s traditional 8-ball emblem on the tongue tab, a white midsole, black outsole and black laces to round off the design.
Priced at £114.95, the Nike x Stüssy Vandal High will arrive at Nike SNKRS on Thursday, 15 June at 8:00am, while an earlier release will commence at Stüssy‘s webstore on Friday, 9 June.
