Vault by Vans x Kar L'Art De L'Automobile "Exhaust Black Edition" Old Skool Sneakers

Kar L’Art de L’Automobile, the renowned fashion platform and automotive house founded by Arthur Kar, has unveiled its latest collaborative footwear release in partnership with Vault by Vans. This exciting collaboration marks their second venture together, following their successful collaboration in 2020.

Adding to their impressive roster of collaborative sneaker and apparel releases, which includes prestigious names like Carhartt, Salomon, Porsche, and Dover Street Market, the latest offering is the striking "VANS L'ART EXHAUST BLACK EDITION." This release features a sleek all-black Vans Old Skool silhouette, crafted from what appears to be rough suede. The attention to detail is evident, with embossing at the top of the toe box and minimal branding on the medial side, where the brand's name is elegantly printed across a leather Old Skool stripe logo.

The standout feature of this collaboration is the "L'ART" branded exhaust system adorning the lateral side of each shoe. According to the brand, these exhausts depict flames that simulate the intensity of a roaring engine at an impressive 12,000 RPM. The bottom of the shoes also showcase "BREAK" and "GAS" lettering, matching the color of the flames on the shoe's exterior. L’Art encourages those who acquire these sneakers to embrace speed by either driving or walking swiftly.

While some size options have already sold out since the release, limited quantities of this exclusive footwear collaboration can still be found on L'Art's official website, priced at €120 Euro or $126 USD.
