MERIX & SLIM FOR JORDAN TRUNNER O/S
September 17, 2025
We partnered with Vans to become the first retailer in North America to release the Vans LX Old Skool 'Souvenir Burgundy'. To celebrate, we curated a weekend experience for the city, giving our customers the chance to secure a pair on a first-come, first-served basis at our Dallas storefront—bringing back that original sneaker culture vibe we all love. To take things further, we hosted an intimate dinner at The Joule in Downtown Dallas, inviting some of the most influential people across fashion, music, art, and culture to network, share a meal, and receive these one-of-a-kind sneakers. It wasn’t just a launch—it was a moment for the community.
Release day for the Vans OldSkool 36 LX 'Souvenir' Burgundy was one for the books. Lines wrapped early and the energy was all about the drop. The hype was real, with people posted up and ready to secure their pair of the limited release the night before. From first in line to the last box out the door, the community showed out heavy, making the day feel bigger than just sneakers. It was a moment of community, patience, and another timeless classic celebrated the Politics way.
In celebration of dropping the Vans OldSkool 36 LX 'Souvenir' in Burgundy, we brought the Dallas community together for a night that blended culture, connection, and personal style for Politics Supper Club. The event served up more than just good conversation - it featured great food, curated drinks, and music that set the tone for a fantastic evening. Guests had the chance to hang out and share the excitement of the release. To top it off, a select few walked away with a surprise pair for being a part of the Politics family, making the night even more memorable. It was the perfect way to honor the drop of a timeless classic and show love to the community that makes it all possible.
