Vans releases the “Washed Paisley Pack” which includes the Era CA and Slip-On Decon CA in a stonewahsed twill paisley pattern. The breached beach look befits a nap under the chandelier or a country stroll to the early 90s. Paisley is a favorite pattern originating out of Persia and India but has gone from full fledged suits in the swinging 60s to business man ties to your mom’s luggage… to the idealized silk smoking jacket from Hugh Hefner’s dreams. The faded and soft colors make this shoe easy to slip on with jeans and make old downtrodden outfits look put together. If you look closely at the subtle patterning you can see how really innovative the design is — incorporating the effect of paisley while creating its own California flower santa-san power inspired shapes.
