Vans’ most popular skate shoes have been getting the royal treatment lately.
BAPE’s camoflauge print just covered the Vans Old Skool sneaker, while Tokyo Design Collective put a Harajuku punk spin on the classic Vans Slip-on. By enlisting these fashion collaborators, Vans’ beloved models have been feeling fresh and extra fashionable lately.
Vans’ skate shows are now glowing (again), thanks to BAL.
The skate brand joined forces with Tokyo-based label BAL for some bright updates on Vans’ most classic skate shoes, like the Authentic and Old Skool models.
Bal’s Vans skate shoes features UV graphics that react to sunlight, plus glow-in-the-dark graphics that, well, glow in dark settings. Basically, the Vans sneakers will appear as white or light pink during the day, topped with artsy graphics which add a cool touch to the shoes.
But when the sun goes down, BAL’s spin transforms into a spooky bright green design, which looks fit for the approaching Halloween festivities. They even drop on September 29, just before October kicks off.
Vans introduced another glowing skate shoe with Better Gift Shop and AOI Industry in September, which saw a classic Slip-on stamped with starry, glow-in-the-dark embellishments.
With all of the new glow-in-the-dark Vans, day and nighttime skate sessions just got easier (extra steezy, too).
