Vans x BAPE Reimagine The Knu Skool In New Collaboration

Vans and BAPE have teamed up on a new footwear collaboration, reworking the iconic Knu Skool silhouette with the Japanese streetwear label’s signature design codes.

The oversized sneaker combines the Knu Skool’s chunky proportions with BAPE’s instantly recognisable Color Camo print, STA logo and shark tooth detailing. Available in black and multi-colour camo editions, the design features suede overlays, camo canvas panels and a co-branded 3D Sidestripe that merges the identities of both brands.

Additional details include custom Ape Head lace keepers, branded wide laces, the Knu Skool’s signature padded tongue and collar, plus a bold checkerboard midsole and Vans’ classic waffle outsole, blending heritage skate styling with BAPE’s streetwear aesthetic.
