Vans has officially launched a collaborative series with Chinese artist Liu Bolin, bringing a fresh wave of trendiness to the brand. This globally renowned artist infuses rich elements of Chinese culture into VANS’ classic shoe designs through his unique watercolor technique.<\/p>\n\n\n

The Premium Authentic 44 model from the collection takes center stage, featuring a vibrant red upper accented with golden horse motifs and calligraphic details, all embodying a strong festive spirit. Notably, the shoelaces are crafted from woven red cords into a Chinese knot, replacing traditional laces and showcasing a deep respect for Chinese craftsmanship. The outsole is humorously stamped with Ma Shang Jiu Hao, symbolizing the immediate arrival of good fortune.<\/p>\n\n\n

In contrast, the Premium Old Skool adopts a more minimalist style, featuring a pure white upper paired with burgundy details, with a subtle horse illustration that adds a touch of understated luxury. The grand finale, the Premium Half Cab Reissue 33, boasts a rich dark suede that creates a sense of depth and opulence, elevating the overall quality of the collection. Both styles incorporate the traditional Frog button design in their laces, perfectly blending Eastern artisan craftsmanship with skateboard culture.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
