Fashion and animal-skin prints have a very on again/off again relationship. Lady Gaga may be over the leopard spots for now, but the
MCM x Phenomenon capsule collection caught lots of attention this past January with their use of it. Plus, there were definite hints of animal skin patterns on view in various street fashion snaps taken during New York Fashion Week. Now
Vans is catering to women who want to appropriate the look in the decidedly casual way that the California company exemplifies. The Authentic Lo Pro includes versions of the shoe in both standard leopard print, and a tonal zebra, in black and gray, both in women’s sizes. The zebra pattern is in fact one that we’ve seen before from Vans, in the
Classic Zebra Pack, which included a men’s Lo Pro, and a Sk8 Hi in the same tonal pattern. Both versions are in stock at
Extra Butter now; check out images of both after the jump.
