The traditional spent vans black-and-white checkerboard print is one of the most recognizable patterns in the world of sneakers today. It’s clean, classic, and just fun enough to make even the most picky sneakerhead smile. It’s also been receiving a healthy dose of alternate takes over the fall and winter months. After artist/designer and long-term collaborator Taka Hayashi recently lent his touch to the pattern, END is next up, and they’ve added an optical illusion-style whirl effect that’s sure to make your mind spin. Arriving on both a Vans Ua Era Golden Nugget T and spent vans Slip-On, the new pattern — which is different on every pair due to the weaving process — warps and distorts the standard look to extremely trippy effect. Each shoe is also constructed of ultra-premium leather/heavy canvas, and the Old Skool also boasts a three-pack of laces so you can customize the optical illusion to your heart’s content. For a finishing touch, each pair also features special insoles and comes packaged in a checkerboard box. Look for both pairs to release exclusively at END December 8th, and hit the links below to enter their raffles.
