Rhuigi Villasenor, the founder of Rhude, nostalgically recounts his childhood in 80s Los Angeles and how it was influenced by the skating scene, which serves as the inspiration for the Vans Bold Ni. Released in October 2019, this particular version pays homage to the iconic cars of that era by featuring a navy canvas upper adorned with contrasting leather eyestays and suede accents. The midsole showcases repeated branding, cleverly referencing the California license plate prints associated with the skate brand. The sneaker's aesthetic is completed with a checkerboard-patterned rubber outsole, reminiscent of the popular skating culture.
