The upcoming collaboration between END., NOMA t.d., and Vans is a thrilling fusion of distinct creative forces, offering a fresh perspective on classic styles.
This partnership combines END.'s keen eye for contemporary trends, NOMA t.d.'s exquisite textile expertise, and Vans' iconic skateboarding heritage, resulting in a visually striking collection deeply rooted in craftsmanship.
Three revered Vans silhouettes are at the collection's heart – the Sk8-Mid, Authentic, and Slip-On. These models, selected for their enduring appeal in the skate and streetwear communities, are reimagined through the lens of NOMA t.d.’s founders Masako Noguchi and Takuma Sasaki. Known for their hand-drawn patterns and intricate textile designs, the duo has infused these Vans classics with a new vitality, adorning them in archival prints in olive, navy, and white hues. These sneakers' "OG" trim underscores a commitment to quality, featuring elevated materials and authentic rubber moldings that Vans enthusiasts have come to cherish.
But the collaboration doesn't stop at footwear. END. has curated an accompanying apparel line that seamlessly integrates with the sneakers. This range includes pieces adorned with identical archival prints, ensuring a cohesive and stylish look from head to toe. From the Station Jacket and Pants in a Beluga grey all-over print to the jersey offerings with exclusive NOMA t.d. branding, each item reflects the meticulous attention to detail and the blending of modern and traditional aesthetics that define NOMA t.d.’s approach.
Set to launch on END on January 26th, this three-way collaboration is a testament to the power of cross-industry partnerships. It not only honors the legacy of each brand but also pushes the boundaries of what's possible in streetwear and skate fashion.
