In a continued celebration of its 50-year
anniversary, Vans releases the Gold pack to further commemorate the momentous
milestone of “Off The Wall” heritage. With an aesthetic inspired by its golden
year, Vans presents a collection of footwear and apparel that features gold
embellishments and archived prints to honor its design legacy. This robust
22-piece assortment includes iconic Vans silhouettes such as the Authentic,
Classic Slip-On, Era 59, Old Skool and Sk8-Hi Reissue alongside a deluxe range
of hoodies, hats, bags and tees.
The Vans 50th Anniversary
Gold pack channels the brand’s heritage by highlighting significant design
emblems such as the checkerboard, the Sidestripe and Duke Kahanamoku’s vintage
aloha pattern in an elevated aesthetic. In the footwear offering, the
checkerboard can be seen as a unique perforated pattern atop a golden Authentic
and a multi-toned execution of the Classic Slip-On, while Vans’ coveted
Sidestripe marks the panels of the Old Skool and Sk8-Hi Reissue. Inspired by
legendary surfer Duke Kahanamoku, the floral motif is brought back from the
archives as a premium foil print across an additional colorway of the Authentic
and a dual delivery of Sk8-Hi Reissues. The Era 59 finishes the sneaker capsule
with a hit of gold on its heel mustache.
Within the apparel and accessories
selection, the golden theme is applied across three pocket tees in the men’s
line-up alongside the 50th Zip Front Fleece, two 50th 6-Panel Snapbacks and the
Old Skool 50th Backpack. The women’s variety brings follows up with a similar
set including pocket tank tops, a slim tee, the 50th Hoodie, two Beach Girl
Trucker Hats and the Realm Backpack. Traces of gold accentuate the patterned
pocket compartments, zip hardware, logos and woven labels within each ensemble.
