It’s going to be hard to top this collab…

The 2022 bar has just been set extremely high in terms of big drops from Vans. On their endless quest to team up with the best artistic minds around the world, they’ve kicked this year off with an absolute doozy. Teaming up with Chen Yingjie (known on IG as HuaTunan) they’ve given the Authentic, the Sk8-Hi and the Old Skool a complete rework, with the renowned artist given free creative reign on every part of each kick.

The result sees Yingjie’s trademark splashed ink meet with washed-out tiger print soles, oracle bone inscriptions and more. The only thing left to do now is figure out whether you want to wear them or hang them on the wall… Just jokes… They’re shoes. Please wear ‘em.
