Vans partners with acclaimed Japanese contemporary artist Takashi Murakami for an eclectic collection under Vans’ premium label, Vault by Vans. Celebrated for his vibrant paintings, as well as his immaculate sculptures and designs, Murakami makes his favorite Vans silhouette, the Classic Slip-On – which happens to be the shoe he wears in his studio every day – the focus of his next project. In addition to footwear, the Vault by Vans x Takashi Murakami collaboration brings forth an artistic assortment of apparel and skate decks for release in late June.

The three prints of the boards are multi-colored skull, multi-colored smiling flowers and a Portrait of Takashi Murakami on blue. The top deck artwork for all three is the vans Vans x Takashi Murakami collection logo printed on wood.
