Vans has linked up with New York City designer Sandy Liang for nine-piece apparel and accessories assortment perfectly encapsulates ‘90s nostalgia through the use of marbled colorways, butterfly iconography, and bejeweled detailing.
The footwear is headed by the iconic Vans Era, Old Skool, Platform Slip-On, and Sport.
The Era boasts a built-in ankle bracelet and metals charms sewn into a pink velour upper. The first Old Skool is offered in pink velour, inspired by the couch in Liang’s Lower East Side studio. The sneaker is also outfitted with crisscross chain detailing. The second iteration of the Old Skool is dedicated to the L.E.S., featuring black canvas uppers and exposed white lock stitching, custom Sandy Liang laces, butterfly adorned outsoles, and custom stitching on each heel.
