Check-in with our Vans ‘Haunted Hotel’ – ?exclusive

We’re very pleased to be bringing to you the Vans ‘Haunted Hotel’ – ?exclusive. Inspired by places where you certainly would not want to stay the night, the pack pays tribute to some of the spookiest hotels in reality and fiction. Including the Vans Authentic and Vans Old Skool, the duo comes with bold prints and plenty of design cues that pay homage to two of the most famous haunted hotels.

The first is the Vans Old Skool ‘Haunted Hotel’ – ?exclusive. This one is a decadent tribute to the fictional Overlook Hotel. There are plenty of nods to the spooky film setting throughout the shoe, with the well-patterned guise reminiscent of the hotel décor. You can also find a key on the inside of the tongue and a picture from the wall decorating the footbed, along with a textile base, suede overlays, purple laces, and a translucent waffled rubber outsole for an icy finishing touch.

The second shoe is the Vans Authentic ‘Haunted Hotel’ – ?exclusive, which is representative of Los Angeles’ Hotel Cecil. A place renowned for the strange goings-on that have happened there over the decades, the shoe represents the art deco influences which characterize the building. It features design cues and patterns borrowed from the reception area and almost regal aesthetics seen throughout the hotel, with textile uppers, patterned foxing tape, and tassel laces adding an extra special touch. Iced soles complete this one, continuing the fine detailing through to the outsole.
