Jim Goldberg & Vans Craft "TV Static" Slip-Ons, Acid-Washed Old Skools & More
Referencing his multimedia work ‘Raised by Wolves.’
Vans has tapped the American artist and photographer Jim Goldberg for a three-piece capsule collection comprised of a Slip-On OG LX, an Old Skool LX and a Sk8-Hi LX.
The collaboration brings a unique twist to each silhouette, with the Slip-On sporting an all-over “TV Static” canvas design, the Old Skool coming in an acid-washed denim effect and the Sk8-Hi appearing in all-leather, which has been inscribed with words and names all over.
Goldberg’s standout pair is the Slip-On, as its “TV Static” canvas is contrasted with a crisp white vulcanized sole unit that’s adorned with the artist’s signature aesthetic — hand-written text this time around stating “Put quarters in the jukebox and bitch about the music,” as well as “I want to piss on the moon.” All three pairs are finished with red co-branded insoles that reference Goldberg’s non-fiction multimedia work, Raised by Wolves.
Take a look at the three Jim Goldberg x Vans offerings in the gallery above, and pick up all of the sneakers online now at retailers such as Solebox, where prices range from €80 EUR to €110 EUR (approx. $88 — $121 USD).
