Vans X Boys of summer

Always finding new ways to work with authentic brands in skateboarding, Vans has teamed up this time with Boys of Summer, well-recognized for their generationally-transcendent, nostalgic videos that capture the true spirit of skateboarding. Together, Vans and Boys of Summer are proud to unveil a new collection, featuring three new colorways across the Classic Skate Old Skool, Rowan Pro, and Varix silhouettes.

All about the crew and helping out the homies, Boys of Summer gained notoriety through videos featuring skateboarding legends, up-and-comers and influencers that highlight the dynamic between the Boys as they travel and skate together. The Vans x Boys of Summer collection reflects this dynamic with “shared pro models” that display one skater’s name on the left shoe and the other on the right. The names are visible on the uppers, as well as on the outsoles through crystal translucent rubber. All three shoes in the collection feature a quote that is meaningful to the duo on the interior tongue label. The collection also uplifts the graphic stylings of Alexis Ross, nodding to the iconic pop culture film excerpts interspersed throughout Boys of Summer’s videos.

SKATE OLD SKOOL - JERRY HSU/BABY GIRL

Vans x Boys of Summer leads with the Skate Old Skool in a navy and black Jerry Hsu/Baby Girl colorway with a navy canvas quarter, black suede overlays and black foxing stripe. A white Sidestripe offers a classic Vans aesthetic, complimented by the shoe’s namesakes on the heel counters. “Good Times, Bad Times” is written on the exterior tongue, while “Boys of Summer” wraps the rubber sidewalls.

ROWAN PRO - AIDAN MACKEY/ROWAN ZORILLA

Vans and Boys of Summer elevate team riders Rowan Zorilla and Aidan Mackey with a new take on the Rowan Pro. A solid navy Rowan/Aidan colorway features a navy upper, with “Rowan/Aidan” in cursive on the heel mustaches and “Boys of Summer” on the sidewall.

VARIX - CHRIS MANUTE SHONTING/STEVE LEE

A third, unexpected iteration takes shape with the Varix in a Manute/Steve Lee colorway, a throwback to ‘90s skate shoe aesthetics. The black/navy uppers are highlighted by reflective pops and graphic hits, navy pig suede overlays, and paired with a white sidewall and crystal rubber outsole.
