As the first UK artist to collaborate with Vans, Dave the Chimp’s upcoming release with Vans will be met with a number of festivities. For Dave the Chimp, his skateboard background mixes with his cartoon-aesthetics in a full-blown color affair. The full pack will include a shoe (exclusive to Size?), a Hessen Mob skate deck, two Vans tees and an homage to Dave the Chimp’s fanzine creation with a Vanzine. The limited print Vanzine features a fold out poster with numerous jokes, hints, tips and fun content. The launch begins Friday, September 19th at the Vans Berlin store with a further launch at London’s Cargo on Wednesday, September 24th with performances by Robots in Disguise and live exhibitions from Dave the Chimp.
