KENZO × VANS COLLABORATION: TAKE A HIKE, BABY

We’re not sneakerheads by any stretch of the imagination, but we’d gladly swap our trusty Celine heels for the new Kenzo x Vans collection.

Kenzo x Vans collaboration

You don’t get many fashion designers who’d strap on their hiking boots and head to the jungle for creative inspiration, but then again, Kenzo creative directors Humberto Leon and Carol Lim aren’t your average designers. The pair visited Thailand with the intention of trekking in the jungle and came back out with the source for their spring/summer 2013 collection: namely, the elusive clouded leopard.

Here’s the good news: the subtly diffused leopard print has appeared all over their catwalk show, but they’re also extending it to the next edition of Vans, in eye-popping ochre, orange, blue, green and khaki.

The collection will be sold at Kenzo stores, kenzo.com and at select retail partners including Opening Ceremony.
