took a creative swing when launching earlier this year, with the dynamic platform serving as a place for Vans to converge with the visionaries driving cultural evolution. They’ve previously teamed up with celebrated brands like and Sterling Ruby’s S.R. STUDIO LA. CA, and now the SoCal brand is pairing up with SATOSHI NAKAMOTO, a high-end streetwear sensation hailing from Los Angeles.

SATOSHI NAKAMOTO first captured attention by transforming classic Vans into one-of-a-kind pieces and releasing them independently. This past was certainly commemorated through this colab, with the handmade aspects for sure shining through. SATOSHI NAKAMOTO has reimagined the classic Old Skool silhouette for this collaborative project, with the pair featuring a rich olive green canvas upper that's complemented by sleek black suede detailing at the toe and eyelets. The standout design element is the array of pearl and crystal studs that embellish the sidestripe, toe and heel, blending modern aesthetics with timeless style.

Infused with retro flair, the project also features a distressed midsole while the rich maroon leather lining and black leather insoles enhance the premium feel. SATOSHI NAKAMOTO’s handwritten signature graces the tongue, adding an authentic touch of craftsmanship. Completing the design are two lace options: a weathered black-and-white pair with repetitive branding and a shaggy maroon pair. The OTW by Vans x SATOSHI NAKAMOTO Old Skool stands as a testament to challenging conventions and embracing innovative design, just as OTW by Vans set out to do.

The OTW by Vans x SATOSHI NAKAMOTO collaboration is set to drop at $175, with exclusive availability starting August 8 through the streetwear brand’s website. This release promises to make waves, and next month, OTW by Vans will further elevate the tribute with an enticing collection of studded footwear that continues to celebrate the design legacy of SATOSHI NAKAMOTO.
