When it comes to collaborations with Vans, Rei Kawakubo's COMME des GARÇONS is certainly no stranger to them.

When it comes to collaborations with Vans, Rei Kawakubo's COMME des GARÇONS is certainly no stranger to them. It seems like every season, the Japanese fashion house takes one of the American skate company's most popular silhouettes and gives it their own spin, and the same can certainly be said about the COMME des GARÇONS x Vans Monogram Slip-On that has just been announced.

Working on the classic Slip-On model, this pair features a crisp all-white canvas construction while contrast CDG monogram branding is repeated vertically across the entire upper, offering up a stark contrast that is sure to turn heads.

A simple "Vans" tag is stitched onto the lateral panel, and underfoot, you'll find a clean vulcanized rubber midsole that's perfect for both the runway and the half pipe. This is then finished off with a monochromatic "Off The Wall" plate around the heel, finalizing the simple yet striking aesthetic.

The COMME des GARÇONS x Vans Monogram Slip-On is not their first collaboration and will definitely not be their last either. Available now, if your size has sold out then don't worry, as it'll be available at Ox Street's dedicated Vans page very soon.
