Vault by Vans Releases Leica by Ray Barbee “Capturing the Journey” Collection

The three-part collection includes footwear, apparel, and a special Vans-edition Leica camera.

The OG Authentic LX leads the collection’s footwear offering with Dark Red suede and canvas uppers, and features custom embroidery with quotes special to Barbee and Leica. The left shoe reads “The joy is in capturing the journey” while the right, in Leica’s native German, reads “Ich entscheide hiermit: es wird riskiert,” (“I hereby decide: the risk shall be taken”), which announced the greenlight for production of the first Leica I camera in 1924.

The collection also features the OG Sk8-Hi LX, OG Slip-On LX, and OG Old Skool LX. Printed, raised Red dots on the sole and Red top eyelets of all footwear styles nod to the minimalist Leica logo.

The collection’s collaborative camera, the limited-edition Leica D-Lux 7 Vans x Ray Barbee, connects the release to both Leica and Vans history with an extraordinary camera covered in Vans’ iconic checkerboard pattern. The limited-edition camera is available in Leica Stores worldwide.
