Vans & Haribo Dish Up Sweet, Jelly Fashion Line For All The Candy-Loving Skaters
Shoes and gummies might not have much in common if you first think about it. So what happens when you mix them? You get a sugar rush in the form of a sweet collection of shoes and clothes by Vans and Haribo that is fit for everyone, from kids to adults.
The Vans x Haribo collection takes the bright and vibrant world of Haribo gummies and transforms them into pieces you can wear from the candy shop to the skate park.
In the lineup, fans will be treated to classics such as Vans’ Slip-On, which takes Haribo favorites such as the snakes, Goldbears, cherries, cola bottles, and dinosaurs and spreads them across the skatewear company’s iconic checkerboard design.
In addition, the Sk8-Hi sneakers also receive a sweet mashup as the black and blue colorway is met with Haribo’s tagline, ‘Kids and grown-ups love it so, the happy world of Haribo’, written all over the shoe in 10 different languages.
And on the Old Skool V, the checkerboard motif has been replaced with yellow gummy bears instead, topped off with a shiny finish reminiscent of the candies themselves.
A red Slip-On with a giant 3D gummy bear is planted on the toe box for kids.
And, of course, the collection is rounded off with hoodies and t-shirts featuring the candy in the true-to-form Vans aesthetic.
The collection will be available on April 6 online and in stores.
