Vans X Civilist Berlin - 'Coffee & Cigarettes'
The obsessive habits of a skateboarder completely outweigh those of the everyday (non-plank riding) individual. But whether your job involves sitting in an office, tending a bar or if you are fortunate enough to work in a skateboard shop - the inability to function without a cup of coffee or smoking a cigarette before your shift begins is common ground.
The folks at Civilist Berlin are no stranger to starting off their day off in such a manner and to honour their caffeine and nicotine infused morning rituals their latest collaboration with Vans nods to these vices with two unique colourways of the Authentic Pro.
The Vans X Civilist Authentic Pro in True White/Honey features a sleek pale canvas upper with pin stripe detailing reminiscent of cigarette paper and insole artwork based on a cigarette butt.
The Black/True White model boasts a more robust black upper, mimicking a deep cup of java with the shoeâs insole artwork adorned with coffee beans so appetizing you can almost taste and smell the joe.
Both colourways feature Civilist Berlin detailing embroidered across each shoesâ tongue alongside the shopâs logo adorned on gold tipped laces. As an added bonus the shoes come wrapped up in a rad Vans X Civilist dust bag and nestled inside a custom shoe box matching the collaborationâs theme.
Whether youâre grabbing these for your Waffle stash or to shred in, Vans have got you covered with the trademark features of their Pro Skate range; an Ultracush HD insole, vulcanised waffle sole and Duracap backed upper which will keep you rolling comfortably.
Both styles of the Vans X Civilist Authentic Pro are available in-store and online from Saturday 7th October 2017 with limited stock available in sizes UK7 to UK11. Check out the teaser for this collaboration then enjoy a few more sneak peaks below. Don't sleep on these!
