Californian skate company, Vans, has had an amazing run this year. The iconic brand has received a bit of a boost thanks to heavy-hitting fans like Kanye West and Justin Bieber, and have capitalized on the hype by steadily dropped great capsules of their Old Skool and Sk8 series. Now, Vans looks to wrap up the year with a festive celebration, as the company have just released a ton of holiday-themed apparel. The line is curated by company legend, Steve Van Doren, and features skull imagery intertwined with Santas and candy canes. There are a bunch of cool clothing designs, but the limited edition shoes are the real stand out of the series. Vans has put the Christmas spin on their Sk8-Hi 38 and Old Skool 36, adding decorative lacing and sprucing up the shoe’s canvas fabric.
The kicks come in two colourways, a coal black and a candy red, and their detailing is incredibly wild and intricate. If copping shoes is a bit too much of an investment, you can peruse Vans’ online store to get a full glimpse at their entire holiday line. Just recently, the brand also linked up with Disney, and debuted a new Toy Story collection. The Pixar line is chock-full of bright tones and loud patterns, and you can check out the flick-inspired wear here. In the meantime, get a closer look at the festive items below.
