After teaming up with Independent Truck Company for a 40th anniversary capsule, Vans is back in the collab game, this time with Chinese brand Purlicue to celebrate Chinese Lunar New Year!

Aptly dubbed the 'Year of the Pig' collection, the range puts an emphasis on the “Laid Back, Not Lazy” motto, adding the traditional Chinese greeting “The Fat Year” on the shoe's vulcanised waffle outsoles. Comprising of four sneakers, including the signature Era and Sk8-Hi models, the former features in pink and white, while the latter utilises a similar canvas and suede upper, with the colour scheme from the Era being reversed

The Purlicue x Vans 'Year of the Pig' collection will be arriving at select Vans stores and stockists around the globe beginning this January. Keep it locked at The Sole Supplier for more news as it develops! In related news, Vans and Opening Ceremony recently reunited for the 'Quilt' pack.
