Vans Syndicate has been around for 10 years, and to celebrate, it's releasing a line of all-new collaborative sneakers.
Vans Syndicate is an exclusive sub-label of Vans skatewear. It's only sold through certain skate shops and online apparel stores and is better optimized to be worn for athletic skating, rather than as casual streetwear. Vans Syndicate is also known for several high-profile collaborations, and it's to these joint projects that it turned to mark its 10th anniversary of existence.
These mustard yellow sneakers feature a classic Vans silhouette, but the colorway is a collaboration between Vans Syndicate and Japanese streetwear brand WTAPS. Covered in a miniature graphic print of the WTAPS logo, the limited-edition shoes have the double mark of two current brands that carry a lot of weight in the world of skate culture.
