Opening Ceremony (est. 2002) founders Humberto Leon and Carol Lim first partnered up with Vans back in 2014, however this release would be first to receive global recognition.

Now, if this last year hasn't been enough forcing many to readjust lifestyles, Leon and Lim decided to rework the iconic Vans checkerboard with two new psychedelic patterns. Abstract Snake and Black Leopard on the Authentic silhouette — for 2021.

Posted by Addition Collaborator · August 04, 2020

Welcome back fellow Junglist Giants to yet another Outfit Of The Week proudly brought to you by Covid-19… It’s with great regret to inform you that we've now temporarily closed, but we’ll be back once this is over and until then you can still shop our fresh styles online at junglestore.com.au

Layers of this week’s Thom’s Tuesday Fits include likes of Vans, New Era, Reebok and one of my personal favourites, Carhartt. From top to bottom; Vans ‘Cheers’ or as I like to call it ‘From Where We’d All Rather Be’ Tee in white. On bottom I’ve gone with another pair of camo pants (unlike the Stan Rays from last week, we have these in stock!!) from Carhartt. The ‘Aviation Pant’ has a relaxed cargo fit with an adjustable waist, double layer at the knee and zip fly. Last but not least is the bangers of which of course the whole fit is styled by: Reebok Club C 85 in the original white and green colour way.

Posted by Adam McManus · February 06, 2019

Inspired by the original Vans factory in Anaheim, California, Vans’ coveted Anaheim Factory collection returns with new silhouettes and colorways resurrected from the archives.

For the spring release, Vans honors a beloved silhouette -- the Style 73.

Special features of the Style 73 DX convey high foxing, high gloss sidewall finish, suede uppers, a custom woven label and UltraCush sockliner for even more comfort and impact cushioning.

By borrowing details from the original models produced in the brand’s early years of footwear design, Vans offers the Anaheim Factory Collection with modernized comfort with upgraded UltraCush sockliners. The collection features throwback design details including utilizing the original style numbers and color palettes, reissued prints, higher-glossed foxing tape, cotton laces and original drill lining weight to complete the vintage aesthetic.
