Vans Vault continues its collaboration with Knoll Textiles with this premium four-pack featuring the Mountain Edition LX and the Authentic LX. The colour-palettes are kept relatively low-key, allowing Knoll's textile expertise to shine. Stomp through the city in the walnuts, then slink around in the blacks come nightfall. These will go like hotcakes so grab yours at select Vans Vault outlets, including Bows & Arrows. Thanks to Highsnobiety and Hypebeast for the news.

We’ve seen boat shoes, chukkas and other footwear styles brought in to the sneaker world. Now, the saddle shoe is being dressed down and given a vulcanized sole by the team at Vans Vault. This Spectator LX owns a red and cream upper and sits on a white sole. Details include waxed laces and dark metal eyelets. St. Alfred is stocking this Vans now.

Lately Fabolous has been murdering the competition in the mixtape realm recently adding the “B.M.F.” instrumental to the body count. While we can’t deny that he’s been all over Jordan’s since his induction to the rap game, is he bodying the competition in the sneaker scene? This week’s Celebrity Sneaker Stalker catches Fab un-boxing some retro J’s prior to release date, Common sporting some coveted Kobes, Swizz Beatz coupled up in Air Max 1′s, and lots of other heat. Who rocked the best heat? As always let us know what you think in our comment section.
