x Murakami TeeVans Vault

Description

This summer Vans have teamed up with esteemed Japanese artist Takahashi Murakami for an inspired range under the label’s Vans Vault imprint. Channeling Murakami’s ‘superflat’ aesthetic which ties together elements of animé, manga, pop culture and traditional art from his native Japan, the bold collection reworks the artist favourite Vans silhouette – the Classic Slip-On LX. Utilising two reoccurring motifs that define Murakami’s work, skulls and flowers, the illustrative work adorns the canvas uppers in a range of hues with complementary piping working with the characteristic fresh white midsole. Rounding off the collection is are three t-shirts and a duo of skate decks adorned in either the skull or flowers artwork, adding a tactile element to the release. The Vans Vault x Murakami Tee is a classically athletic piece cut from a lightweight 100% cotton fabric and features a graphic print to chest. 100% Cotton Portrait Print to Chest Elasticated Upper Recycled Waffle Sole Off the Wall Heel Tab
