Displayed here is the design which Acapulco Gold has created using the newly released Vans Moda Hi, a model which fuses the Sk8 Hi, the Half Cab and the Mountain Edition Hi. AG equiped the Moda Hi with an upper that includes a mix of suede, leather and mesh in a clean white/green colorway. Acapulco Gold branding appears on the tag included on the side of the upper as well as on the tongue tag. Keeping you laced up is a pair of green/white boot laces.
An official release for the Acapulco Gold x Vans Moda Hi is set for March 2010.

Crooks & Castles x Vans Fremont ‘White’ – June 6th Release
January saw the release of the Crooks & Castles x Vans Fremont Hi in Black and June will see the release of the Fremont Hi in white. When these Gucci-esque sneakers were released earlier in the year in black the Crooks & Castles fans went bananas after a long awaited release and the sneakers instantly sold out in very size available. You can expect just as much insanity when the white colorway debuts at the Crooks 8021 Melrose flagship store on June 6th. The shoe comes with an all white upper, green croc skin material on the heel and a Gucci-esque ankle strap with Crooks printed on it.
Be sure to head over early to the Crooks & Castles flagship store at 8021 Melrose on June 6th to get a spot in line for the official release. Supplies will be limited and they will go quick.
