The collaboration between streetwear retailer Bodega and Vans resulted in the creation of the Mid Skool LX sneakers. These sneakers were released as part of the 'Sub Rosa' four-pack at ComplexCon in November 2017, accompanied by a custom box and calendar. The name 'Sub Rosa' is derived from the Latin phrase meaning 'under the rose,' which is based on a Greek myth involving the exchange of a rose between Eros, the god of love, and Harpocrates, the god of silence, secrets, and confidentiality. The Mid Skool LX 'Sub Rosa' sneakers boast a white upper complemented by a red leather heel patch resembling a rose, a black rose-stem jazz-stripe, a black suede toe, and a Cream-colored padded leather lining. The upper is supported by a black vulcanized midsole featuring a distinctive checked rose pattern and a green foxing stripe.
