Santa Cruz's Jim Phillips-Designed "Screaming Hand" Decorates a Vans Classic
One of the most iconic graphics of all time is coming to the Classic Slip-On.
Iconic skate artist Jim Phillips has long been associated with Santa Cruz thanks to the brand’s ubiquitous Phillips-penned “Screaming Hand.” Now two classics are set to come together as the hand decorates the California-based brand’s new collaboration with Vans: a special edition Classic Slip-On. Decked out in black leather and canvas, the kicks see the motif repeated in blue around the heel as matching leather lines the shoe. The graphic even appears in oversized form, housed within the shoe’s icy outsole. Finished with matching custom packaging, the special “Screaming Hand” Slip-On will hit BEAMS T in Harajuku December 18 as the store celebrates the 30th anniversary of the graphic.
