ERL Vamp Quads Sneakers Just Released

ERL reimagines the vamp quads skate shoe with a bold new design. Designed by Eli Russell Linnetz in Venice Beach, California, ERL presents the debut of its new footwear silhouette: the vamp quads, on sale today, Thursday December 4, 2025.

The beginning of a new realm for the vamp shoe, the vamp quads reimagine the chunky skate silhouette, washed in shades of California that recall 90s sun-drenched skate glory. The upper is built from a four-color leather paneled construction anchored by rich cowhide suede — each panel cut, placed, and stitched with quiet precision.

Inside, a unique woven interior wraps the foot with subtle texture, while articulated foam is shaped for steady, all-day comfort. Custom 9mm-thick ERL laces with dipped aglets thread through the leather upper, paired with an ERL-stamped tongue and an ERL gum sole.

Hand made in limited quantities. Designed in Venice Beach, California. Arrives in a reusable transparent corrugated box recalling American postal service carriers.

Available exclusively at erl.Store, the vamp quads come in two colorways, mocha and cream, in mens sizes 8-13 and retail for $535 usd.
