Does anyone have experience with the Van Vault collection?

They're supposed to be higher quality than Vans regular stuff. Looking at pics online, the leather in the VV pairs looks noticeably better than the regular pairs.

My boyfriend has a pair of white leather regular Vans and they aged horribly and the leather crumpled in a really ugly way, so I'm a little cautious.

I want to get a pair of white leather slip-ons for the summer and I'm debating between spending $110 for the Vans Vault ones or $400 for the wings+horns. The wings+horns are fundamentally higher quality shoes and have a more elegant design than Vans, but I also think there's something appealing about having a pair of super basic, "classic" sneakers (saving $300 is also nice, and not cringing when they inevitably get scuffed on the subway is nice too).
