Vans and Tokyo-based graphic designer GUCCIMAZE have released their first collaboration collection, titled "Vans Artist Collection With GUCCIMAZE." The collection takes "Night Life" as its theme, featuring footwear and apparel that change appearance between day and night. The shoes use a two-layer design where a black nylon upper wears away to reveal neon green and a custom logo underneath. The collection includes T-shirts, shorts, headwear, socks, and backpacks. Sales begin June 6 at Vans stores and online. A launch party will be held June 5 at Fumin Yūgi Lion in Shibuya.
The shoes are Vans' Premium Authentic model. The black nylon upper is designed to wear down over time, revealing a neon green layer and GUCCIMAZE's custom logo underneath. Piping, tongue, and heel use reflective material that catches club lights at night. The men's apparel uses bold graphics, while women's items reinterpret the Vans wordmark. A launch party on June 5 at Fumin Yūgi Lion in Shibuya will feature DJs close to GUCCIMAZE, running from 10 PM to 5 AM. Entry is 2,500 yen, with a 20-plus age restriction and photo ID required.
