In the 1980s and 90s, the Rathskeller (known as ‘The Rat’) was one of Boston’s most iconic music venues. To celebrate the locale, Vans partnered with California-based brand Syndicate to release a commemorative colorway on the classic Old Skool silhouette. The Concepts x Syndicate Old Skool Pro 'Rat Hunter' features an Off-White upper with washed blue denim side paneling, a white and red checkerboard midsole and cracked grey leather details on the eyestay and side stripe. Co-branding appears on the inserts.
