Vans has done a number of collaborations in the past with people such as Tony Hawk and franchises including The Nightmare Before Christmas and Harry Potter. The company has also used its platform to give back to the community. Alongside its Black Lives Matter donations, Vans also recently launched an Autism Awareness line. As well, the company is using shoe materials to help frontline workers amid the coronavirus pandemic.

Now, Vans is launching a new line with National Geographic just in time for summer. For 132 years, National Geographic has been dedicated to storytelling and sharing natural discoveries with the world. According to Vans, this latest collection is in celebration of National Geographic‘s accomplishments and discoveries over the years.

“Vans and National Geographic come together for a collection of footwear and apparel that celebrates 130 years of the never-ending quest to explore,” Vans’ website statement reads. “The collection celebrates National Geographic‘s longstanding tradition of seeking and storytelling. Discover the different footwear and apparel styles in this collection and become inspired to explore our planet.”

 

The collection is now live on Vans.com and includes a variety of products for everyone. The Vans X NatGeo collection has special iterations of the Sk8-Hi, Old Skool, Authentic, Era, UltraRange EXO, and Slip-On shoes. As well, each shoe includes National Geographic‘s yellow border on its midfoot and heel.
