While it may seem like an unlikely collaboration, Comme des Garçons and Vans have proven that you can make any partnership work with the right style. Reuniting for another collaboration, these two brands are taking off one of Vans’ most iconic sneakers for a luxury remix that’s perfect for skaters and non-skaters. Featuring a bold print and the traditional silhouette, this new collaboration is a fun way to mix up an old favorite. With Comme des Garçons’ undeniable edgy look, this partnership is the perfect way to refresh the traditional casual sneaker and replace it with a style with more personality. Considering the popularity of their previous collaboration, there’s no doubt that the partnership between Comme des Garçons and Van will continue to deliver a stylish blend for seasons to come.

Using Vans’ Authentic low-top, lace-up silhouette, Comme des Garçons has added a flashy luxury edge to the classic sneaker. Sticking with the same silhouette, the new sneaker features statement CDG branding and graphic overlays in black that contrast with the shoes’ white uppers. A CDG patch also makes an appearance along the toe box, for an unmistakable look. The redesigned insole is also upgraded with the Vans OTW logo added to the design. For those who missed out on the brand’s previous drop, this second launch is an unmissable opportunity to get this one-of-a-kind release. Available now via Comme des Garçons’ website and retailers, and isn’t expected to stay in stock for long.
