If we mentioned ‘shadow Vans’ without any context, regular Sneaker News readers would probably picture the Shadow Conpsiracy collaboration with Off the Wall we previewed a couple months back. That pack is still awaiting a release with no solid date set, but we do know with relative certainty that the Vans ‘Dark Shadow Pack’ releases pictured above will drop in Q3.

Nike Mercurial, these mix a charcoal suede upper with black laces and soles to get a dark look that’s made more inviting thanks to its tonal depth. Click through to see both pairs and check back with us for word on the US release date. via FNG
