Vans and BAPE® celebrate their shared influence on youth culture and streetwear with a footwear collaboration centered on the iconic premium Knu Skool silhouette.
Details throughout the shoe underscore the partnership’s attention to craftsmanship and storytelling. A custom Ape Head lace keeper sits atop wide laces with A Bathing Ape® branding incorporated into the rubber sidewall. The design stays true to the Knu Skool's roots, featuring an oversized tongue, padded collar and a bold, low-top profile. Underfoot, a mega checkerboard sole pays tribute to Vans' heritage, while the brand's signature waffle outsole continues to deliver the durability that has defined Vans since 1966.
