Vans x Patta “Mean Eyed Cat” Old Skool Collection

 

 Resurrecting their coveted "Mean Eyed Cat" collab from 2015, Patta and Vans come together to present two new colour ways of the reworked Old Skool for a larger global release. 

 When Patta, Vans and BEAMS first combined on the triple black limited edition pair 2 years ago, only a select few were able to get their hands on a pair of the Japanese exclusives. Maintaining the bold Patta logo print on to the side panels and the “Mean Eyed Cat” text on the midsole, the shoe is now offered up in tonal “True White” or “Black Coffee” colour options this season. Each shoe is detailed with a soft leather jazz stripe, constructed from a premium suede and canvas mix on the upper and finally come complete with custom 'Team Patta' laces. 

 The Vans x Patta “Mean Eyed Cat” Old Skool Collection will be dropping at the brands Amsterdam and London locations on May 27th, and Patta’s webstore on May 29th.

Patta SS17 Lookbook

 

Patta return for Spring/Summer 2017 with another diverse collection which again draws inspiration from numerous themes. As the brand continue to build on their ever popular seasonal releases, the latest instalment aligns with previous offerings while introducing new silhouettes ready for the warmer months and the unpredictable European climate. 

The brands signature logo features heavily throughout alongside various other recognisable logo's, reworked and translated on to the staple silhouettes through to the more considered outerwear pieces and accessories. The colour palette is largely muted, with a mixture of autumnal colours and summer ready pastels, utilising both bold and minimal designs for what is ultimately a highly accessible and wearable collection, with a premium feel.

 You can take a look at key pieces from the release captured in their familiar simplistic studio lookbook shot by Menno Kok. The Patta Spring/Summer 2017 collection is available now at the brands Amsterdam and London locations, as well as online, and will be arriving at select Patta retailers shortly.
