Vans’ Pink and White “Pearlized” Old Skool 36s Have Officially Restocked

What initially looked like a possible return for two of Vans’ more decorative OTW Old Skool 36 “Pearlized” colorways is now officially underway.

The Pink and White pairs have restocked through JD Sports UK, bringing the pearl-covered Old Skool 36s back to shelves overseas. The retailer has also restocked White/Black and Green/Yellow/Red versions, making four returning colorways in total.

The Pink pair remains one of the louder options from the series, pairing its bright upper with contrasting darker overlays and pearl and metallic detailing across the Sidestripe and toe. The White edition takes the opposite approach, keeping things much cleaner while letting the decorative hardware become the focal point.

Both originally arrived as part of Vans’ wider “Pearlized” treatment, which elevated the familiar Old Skool 36 with pearl embellishments, metallic accents, distressed sole units, and the worn-in styling regularly seen across OTW by Vans releases.

While the Pink and White pairs are the focus of the latest return, JD Sports UK is also carrying the aforementioned White/Black and Green/Yellow/Red colorways, suggesting Vans is cycling several styles from the series back into circulation rather than revisiting just one or two pairs.

For now, the restock is confirmed in the UK. US release details have not been announced, though with four colorways now resurfacing overseas, we could see the “Pearlized” Old Skool 36 lineup begin landing stateside soon.
