Veteran Taka Hayashi returns with his 17th ‘Vault By Vans’ collection, channeling Native American influences into a considered footwear and apparel collection.

Hayashi has crafted some of their most notable Vans offerings over the years, and this collection is sure to add to his legacy. Taking on the underrated SK8-Nomad Lx & Mountain Edition Lace Ox, the shoes combine suede and nubuck for a deliciously rugged and tasteful collection which covers low-cut and high-cut sneakers, with weatherproof construction to boot.

To match the sneakers, Hayashi’s apparel collection takes notes from nature, including a reversible jacket starring an embroidered parrot perched on a skull, plus a tiger on a skateboard printed on a button-up. Dreams do come true!

See the entire collection below, which drops on April 29. You’ll be able to cop it all across Australia from boutiques including Highs and Lows, Laced, Above the Clouds, Loaded, Up There Store. See it here:
