"To welcome Imran Potato into the family, the team at Vans opened the vault to the young creative. And for their first collection together, the two are bringing back a rarely-seen, ’90s skate-inspired classic: the https://www.followsomeshoes.com/old-skool.

A series of https://www.followsomeshoes.com/ join the collection, all of whose sides are covered with a primitively drawn human hand. This print grips the side panels as it does the tongue, boldly and conceptually evolving the concept of Imran Potato’s viral Caveman Slippers.

Artwork from the lo-fi figure’s “Respect” and “Don’t Be Scared” albums land on the capsule’s checkerboard print.
