Well, this is unexpected.

Inspired by both brands home state of California, Modernica calls upon a few time-tested Vans motifs that includes an iconic checkerboard decal as well as two tropical patterns with one opting for a cooler blue shade and the other in a much warmer combo of reds and browns. With luxe materials far from at a premium, the furniture experts add high-end textiles to the toebox, heels, and leather tongue of the three Style 36 iterations as well as to the forefoot of the matching Slip-Ons. Joining an already robust lineup of Vans Vault collaborations, this six-piece footwear set will arrive at select global retailers like SNS on February 23rd, so enjoy a detailed look below and stay tuned for more store links as we have them.
