Vans and Liberty. Colorful, spring-inspired sneakers and clothing will be available.

There is a metaphor of a storm in the flowers , only goodbye is life. These words, which are perfect for this season of blooming and falling cherry blossoms, are a translation of the Chinese poem "Kanju" by Masuji Ibushi.

The life of a flower is short and ephemeral, but why not make it last a little longer with Vans Made with Liberty, a collaborative collection by Vans and Liberty fabrics?

All Liberty Fabrics prints are hand-drawn or painted by the in-house design team and processed into fabrics at a printing factory in Italy. This time, the brand has chosen floral and paisley textiles that are unmistakably "Liberty Fabrics". Sneakers, clothing, bags, and other items will be available.

The sneakers released prior to the garments are a tapered version of the "Old School" with the padding around the cuff removed and stitched in place. The stylish silhouette, which stands out for its gorgeous coloring, comes in three colors.

The clothing and accessories to be released sequentially in May will combine the iconic checkerboard pattern of "Vans" with the floral pattern used in the new collection.

Both are in the height of spring and you will be able to fully enjoy spring just by wearing them. It would be nice to wear both with your partner.
