Vans’ iconic Old Skool 36 gets a vibrant reinterpretation by Parra. His connection to Vans began in the early 1990s as a sponsored skater, long before his bold, surreal artwork earned a place in galleries and museum collections worldwide. Now, the history comes full circle with the OTW by Vans x Parra Old Skool 36. A classic silhouette viewed through Parra’s distinctive lens, merging art and skate heritage with layered materials and premium craftsmanship.
The style pairs soft suede with Parra’s signature wavy colorblocking and asymmetric details delivering a minimalist and polished look. Playful typography adds character across custom tongue labels and mismatched footbeds, punctuated with the reminder: “Don’t forget to skate in these.”
Comfort comes from Sola Foam ADC insoles, paired with a vulcanized sole and Vans’ signature waffle outsole. Matte foxing and custom heel scabs complete the silhouette. A meeting point of art, skate culture, and timeless design.
