EXT. GAS STATION ON THE EDGE OF TOWN – DUSK

He pumps exactly $14.00 of gas and stares into the distance like he’s expecting someone. The Vans MTE Crosspath XC in Beige/Black are dusted in dry gravel. It’s unclear if he’s coming from a hike or heading into one. That’s the point.

Product Description:

The Vans MTE Crosspath XC in Beige/Black (Style VN000D5VOVP) blends utility with desert-tinged subtlety. It’s a low-top, all-terrain sneaker built for the person who keeps a rain shell in their tote bag “just in case.” The upper—made from recycled PET mesh, suede, and textiles—is coated with DWR to handle light moisture without flinching. Underfoot, the Vibram XS TREK EVO outsole grips terrain like it’s being graded.

The beige softens the silhouette, the black keeps it serious. Together, they say: I could be anywhere. And maybe I already am.
