Vans unveils its latest silhouette: Old Skool 36 FM

Milan Design Week served as the stage for the launch of the Old Skool 36 FM, an OTW by Vans silhouette that highlights the Californian brand's commitment to design, art and music. The iconic Old Skool model, reinvented with design elements inspired by sound signatures, made its debut in the immersive installation ‘CHECKERED FUTURE: FREQUENCY MANIFEST’, presented at the prestigious Triennale Milano. Designed by Willo Perron, with a soundscape by Tim Hecker, the experience transported guests from Vans' iconic past to a visionary future, highlighting the brand's global influence and its dedication to innovation at the intersection of culture and industry.

In addition, the POPCUSH™ palm technology offers optimal cushioning, impact protection and energy return, ensuring a smooth experience even during the most intense skate sessions.
