Legendary skater Tony Trujillo and Vans link up for another signature silhouette. Trujillo’s 7th signature sneaker, the TNT Advanced Prototype draws inspiration from Trujillo’s past models, while offering updated technology like UltraCush Lite 3D footbeds and a bespoke waffle tread outsole intended to improve durability and grip with wear. Three distinct colorways — black/white, pink/white/black and all-white — highlight the upper’s distinct paneling, utilizing Duracap reinforcement for extra sturdiness. A co-branded tongue patch and black laces complete Trujillo’s new design.

Check out highlights from the launch event below and look for the TNT Advanced Prototype to launch on July 14 alongside a variety of complementary clothing, including an anorak, tee and beanie.

Elsewhere, Vans introduced a “big logo” iteration of its classic Sk8 Hi.
