2 New Drops From Nike & Vans Roar With Animal Prints & High-Fashion Flair
Fall 2025 is bringing bold sneaker drops with Nike's cozy cow print Field General and Vans' Chanel-inspired Old Skool.
Fresh designs, new materials and serious style vibes make these kicks ones to watch.
Nike Field General Cow Print 'Cinnamon'
Nike isn't done with animal prints just yet. The latest Field General 'Cow Print' comes dressed in a cozy 'Cinnamon' colourway, bringing a warm, autumn-ready vibe that feels equal parts playful and stylish.
Designed exclusively for women, this pair transforms barnyard inspiration into street-ready chic.
The sneaker features a rich brown mesh base topped with hairy cow print overlays in earthy black and brown tones.
Clean white leather accents on the Swoosh and heel balance the bold print, keeping the design fresh and premium. Branding details on the tongue, insole, and heel tie everything together with Nike's usual finesse.
What makes the 'Cinnamon' edition special is its material update. Instead of the usual leather and mesh, Nike opts for a durable, tight-knit canvas that feels sturdy yet comfortable.
A gum sole anchors the look with traction and warmth, while crisp white laces add a final pop against the earthy palette.
The Nike Field General 'Cow Print' in 'Cinnamon' will retail for $US120 (~RM504) and will be available for purchase in Fall 2025 at Nike retailers and online in women's sizes exclusively.
Vans Old Skool 36 'Souvenir'
Vans continues to blur the lines between streetwear and luxury fashion with their upcoming Old Skool 36 'Souvenir' collection, drawing bold inspiration from an unlikely source – Chanel's iconic 'Graffiti' On The Pavement Messenger bag.
This creative crossover showcases the California brand's willingness to venture beyond traditional skate aesthetics, proving that inspiration can come from the most unexpected places in the fashion world.
The design story behind these 'Souvenir' editions is fascinating in its execution. The signature frayed multi-colour embroidery that adorns the sidestripe directly references Chanel's graffiti-style bag, while leather straps and buckle details inspire the toe-cap, heel cup, liner, and eyelets.
Adding to the narrative, charm-like pins scattered across the upper nod to both the 'summer of love' patches found on the original Chanel piece and the currently trending charm aesthetic dominating social media feeds.
What makes this release stand out is how it connects Vans' skate heritage with high fashion inspiration, creating instant demand that saw the first colourway sell out immediately.
With a burgundy edition dropping in September, Vans have proven their ability to take creative risks that appeal to both sneaker collectors and fashion fans, showing that bold crossover designs can create genuine cultural buzz.
The Vans Old Skool 36 'Souvenir' retails for US$125 (~RM525) with the original colourway available via retail partners like Sneaker Politics; while the burgundy edition will be available in September 2025 at Vans stores and select retailers.
