A range that looks good and does good, the Vans Autism Awareness Collection utilises textures, fabrics and prints to deliver shoes that are comfy, functional and cheerful. The brand’s fan favourite Slip-ons, Old Skool and Sk8 Hi silhouettes have all had a makeover and each iteration boasts its own sensory identity.
Presented in an ultra-soothing blue colour palette, this collection is lead by two slip-on silhouettes. One comes in a high-shine iridescent finish and the other comes in a quilted design that’s meant to be calming to touch. An Old-Skool iteration is finished with miniature love hearts and another boasts a super easy fastening that makes them effortless to slip on and off. Each pair boasts supreme grip and they’re fitted with Vans’ ComfyCush technology so they’re easy to wear all day.
Rounding off the collection nicely is Vans’ promise to donate a minimum of $100,000 of its proceeds to A.skate – an organisation that helps children with autism socialise through skateboarding. Proving that the Vans Autism Awareness Collection Epitomises is worth each and every single penny, this range simultaneously raises awareness for autism and maintains functionality, style and durability.
