VANS has partnered with Hong Kong-based streetwear brand CLOT, to release their first collaboration footwear collection for Holiday 2012. The design was inspired by CLOT’s Fall/Winter 2012 apparel collection, the tribesmen embroidery and vibrant colors are featured on VANS’ original skate shoe, the Era and the Classic Slip On. The collection includes 4 styles available for men and women, and will retail at HKD1580 (Classic Slip On in Black) and HKD1080 (Era in Washed Navy, Washed Red & Washed Black). Pretty cool, my fave pair is def the slip-on that Edison is wearing.

CLOT’s co-founder, Edison Chen said about the partnership, “We’ve always had a few pairs of Vans we enjoyed like the Wtaps one and the more limited edition shoes. We’ve collaborated with a lot of footwear companies and it’s interesting to work on a Classic Vans silhouette not only for skating but for everyday lifestyle. They’re very comfortable to wear. Working with Vans was super easy and super cool and I would love to work with them again really soon.”

“Vans is definitely one of those brands that I love and respect a whole lot. Working with them on this collaboration has been a joy. It just made sense for CLOT and VANS to get together to create something that had elements of both brands. Together, we’ve really stepped it up in terms of detailing and quality in order to deliver a fresh product to our fans. That’s really what it’s all about” CLOT’s co-founder, Kevin Poon said.
