A$AP Rocky's Collab Vans are Fire...Literally
Published: July 7, 2021By: SLNImages: GQ / @prettyflackofits

After hinting at an upcoming Vans collab during a GQ interview earlier this year, we now have an idea of what an A$AP Rocky Vans shoe may look like thanks to an on-foot preview from the man himself.
Having hinted that he had “completely reinvented” the classic Vans Slip On style when designing the upcoming collab, Rocky was spotted out and about in a previously unseen pair that could be a sneak peek at the final product.
While appearing at first like a regular slip on sneaker, Rocky's take ditches the back heel of the popular skate style altogether to create a mule-like backless shoe, as can be seen in the photos.
The design features a white upper and sole with a solitary contrasting dark stripe, plus a red, yellow and orange flame motif on the outer edge.
The interview gives no hint as to when the collection will be released, simply teasing that the collection will be coming "soon".
Stay tuned for more updates on the rapper and fashion icon's upcoming collection with the skate brand.
