Vans‘ very own professional skateboarder, Tyson Peterson, has lent his creative talents to designing “The Wayvee” collection. The collaborative offering consists of an all-new skate silhouette aptly called The Wayvee that features a low-top sneaker designed to elevate skate performance. The shoe features an intricate composition as its wrapped in an all-black palette with hits of red, yellow and green.

As far as specs are concerned, the low-top boasts translucent mesh quarters for maximum breathability alongside DURACAP toe caps to maximize the lifespan of the shoe during wear. What’s more, interior LuxLiners offer a sock-like fit for more comfort and support when worn. Last but certainly not least, the sneaker is topped up with the signature Wafflecup outsoles to give skaters extra gri and cushioning p when cruising or doing tricks.

Accompanying the emerging footwear silhouette is an apparel pack consisting of casual pieces such as the Off The Wall short sleeve tee, yarn-dyed tee and standard crew fleece in antique white featuring a peace sign and a sketch of his dog, Natty. The collection is finished off with a loose tapered corduroy cargo pant in black, Torrey Skate jacket in asphalt, and sock with red, yellow, and green peace signs. 

Get a closer look at the The Wayvee by Tyson Peterson above and expect an official launch this August 5 at select Vans Skateboarding retail locations.
