Vans LX Old Skool 36 Souvenir Faded Black

RELEASE 23-07-2026
Rediscover the myth of the archive skate elevated to the highest level of premium craftsmanship: discover the Vans LX Old Skool 36 Souvenir sneakers in the fascinating Faded Black variant (model code VN000E8VEMV1).
This exclusive model belongs to the prestigious line Luxury (LX) by Vans, an elite division dedicated to revisiting the brand's historic silhouettes through the use of noble materials and advanced tailoring constructions. The design celebrates the legendary 1977 Old Skool (originally named "Style 36"), the first model ever to sport the iconic sidestripe Sidestripe. The special "Souvenir" edition is inspired by the nostalgic aesthetics of handmade embroidery and time-worn fabrics. The "Faded Black" colorway develops a faded and washed black, a deep anthracite that evokes the charm of vintage garments and is embellished with unique decorations, transforming this sneaker into an authentic cult object for collectors and lovers of luxury streetwear.

Luxury LX Construction and "Souvenir" Inspired Details

• Washed Canvas Fabric with Vintage Effect: The main structure of the upper is made of a sturdy, high-weight twisted cotton canvas, subjected to a special wash that gives the black color a faded and wavy finish, rich in unique shades.
• Premium Suede (Suede) Panels: The toe, the lace loop area and the heel are reinforced by inserts in extremely soft, high-quality short-haired suede. This material contrast with the washed canvas drastically increases abrasion resistance and gives an elite structure to the shoe.
• Exclusive Artistic Embroidery on the Heel: Faithful to the "Souvenir" concept, the back and side panels of the sneaker host sophisticated high-definition embroidery inspired by the classic iconography of the Jackets vintage souvenir. The colored yarns create a sophisticated and artisanal color contrast on the dark base.
• Internal lining in soft leather and canvas: The inside of the ankle collar is lined with genuine full-grain leather to reduce chafing and provide luxurious wearing comfort, supported by a high-density cushioned sockliner that absorbs ground impact.

Iconic Details and Traditional Vulcanized Structure

• Sidestripe in matching leather: The famous lateral wavy line is applied in soft smooth leather coordinated with the color palette of the garment, maintaining the brand's identity clean and elegant.
• Vulcanized Tape (Foxing Tape).: Compared to the regular road version, the models of the LX line have a slightly higher and shiny perimeter rubber band, without the classic contrast line, which faithfully recalls the artisanal manufacturing of the 70s and 80s.
• Original Waffle sole in Natural Rubber: The lower sole retains the timeless honeycomb (sole waffle) design in high-traction vulcanized rubber. It guarantees impeccable grip both on the skate deck and on city surfaces, offering exceptional durability.

Style and Maintenance Tips
With a strong retro character and an exquisitely lived-in aesthetic, these premium sneakers lend themselves to infinite combinations within the urban-chic wardrobe. They go perfectly with straight cut light wash jeans, Chino Pants black or tailored shorts, letting the artistic embroidery and the washed finish of the fabric be the absolute protagonists of the outfit. To maintain the softness of the suede and the texture of the flamed canvas unaltered, we recommend cleaning exclusively by hand: use a soft bristle brush for the suede parts and a microfibre cloth slightly dampened with cold water and neutral soap for the canvas parts, avoiding rubbing the embroidery threads directly. Do not machine wash and keep away from direct heat sources.
