Depop x Vans Collaboration Has Employed Gen Z Designers For A Fresh New Look
Written by Cassell Ferere in partnership with Kulture Hub
Vans Off The Wall, the skate origins American apparel company, is at it again and this time they are doing it with British online resale app Depop. Launched in 2011, Depop has been on the rise for selling and reselling vintage, grailed, thrift, and original fashion from creators all over the world to Gen Z shoppers.
Depop has collaborated with brands like Ralph Lauren and Richard Quinn for Pop-Up stores in the platform and have physically made appearance at events like Re-Fashion Week in New York City, with a dedicated Pop-Up presence.
Vans has collaborated with a multitude of brands over the years but this Depop collaboration is giving them a new youthful stretch of life. This is nothing Vans isn’t used to, although. The legendary skate shoe has been around since the late ‘60s and ‘70s and has been the skater branded go-to shoe.
Even if you don’t skate, Vans are a tell of where you are and where you once were in your life. New designs from artists like LeiMai LeMaow, Jessica Luostarinen, Yuki Haze, and Connor Williams.
Depop is collaborating with Vans for the first time in their almost ten year existence. The theme for this collection is inspired by The Simpsons. While they are at 21 million registered users in 147 countries, they still are counting item uploads at 144,000 each day.
Depop has been a harbor of great young design talent and an avenue to getting your hands on some exclusive grailed items, or just upgrading your drip on a budget.
This Depop x Vans collection will be available on the Depop App as you can imagine. It will also be available on Footlocker.eu and select footlocker stores (UK) from August 14th, 2020.
