Vans doesn’t only have its hands in just skateboarding, but also in other areas such as BMX, subsequently becoming the first brand to do so to support the sport officially. Much like skating, BMX too has had its significant impact on youth culture, and while arguably not as mainstream as the former, provided another alternative to those who had more affinity for the two-wheeled vehicle than a mobile board.

To celebrate this milestone then, Vans presents the Anniversary Collection for both men and women, that features a unique assortment of footwear and apparel inspired by the heyday of parking lot ramp demonstrations, kids cladded in neon, and a celebration to a longstanding form of creative expression.

Models include the Sk8-Hi Reissue and Era, serving as the foundation for a full run of apparel that showcases the iconic Checkerboard printed quarter-panel that is available in 3 colourways that include gree, white, and true navy. Each silhouette is finished with a reissued thumbs up heritage print on the sidewall.

The Vans BMX 40th Anniversary Pack will be available to shop in Vans retail stores this 8th Of August.
