The East coast and West coast meet on an all-new collaboration as Awake NY and Vans open the floodgates to a cross-country partnership with a trio of SK8-Hi colorways.

The partnership is brought to life with the help of Foot Locker’s incubator program, Greenhouse. The Awake NY x Vans SK8-Hi collection includes three distinct colorways with something for everyone. The capsule includes a black with pink, blue with red, and red with green offering. Each pair features Batik swatch fabric, which is made from a wax-resistant dye and gives the checkerboard pattern on the upper a worn look and feel. The collection also includes Awake NY’s logo debossed for extra detail.

Following the October 15 release on Awake NY’s website, the collection releases on October 20 0n the Greenhouse app, and on FootLocker.com on October 22. All three pairs retail for $90 each. As always, our sneaker monitors and release day strategy will have members ready for drop day.

Sole Savy is unreal! With a busy schedule it’s hard to keep up on shoes, and the group keeps me up to date on releases, tips on how to manually cop, and a marketplace with killer deals from fellow like minded collectors. It’s changed the sneaker game for me!

@SoleSavy is the truth. They've helped me cop kicks I never would've imagined getting at retail. Members always willing to assist on drops too. And most of all, a REAL community of REAL sneakerheads. These guys should be the gold standard for sneaker communities! #LifetimeMember

My membership paid for itself three fold by being solely responsible for my union 4’s, mesh sacai waffles, sacai blazers, court purple aj1s, glow in the dark yeezy 350s, travis scott lows (which I traded to get desert ore ow’s), air max 1 londons, bc3’s for way under retail etc.

Can't say enough about SS. The stellar help with copping shoes is a given but it's the community that makes it extra special. Hands down one of the best decisions I made as a wannabe sneakerhead.

The community of sneakerheads and resources available to help manually cop are great and really will help you get more Ws. The Zoom calls for hyped drops like Union Jordan 4 only adds to the camaraderie while providing real time instruction
