Upcycling sensation Nicole McLaughlin links up with Vans for her own utility-driven take on the Vans Slip-On VR3 LX as part of her ‘Gardening Tote’ pack. Crafted with a cream canvas base, the upper is threaded with pine-green canvas while similar tone bungee detailing arcs across the toe creating small pockets for storage. A custom NM logo is stitched on the tongue while loops for tying your shoes to your bag arc around the heel. Underfoot we find a thick white midsole complete with pine-green rubber piping layered above a waffled outsole.
