Fresh Drop: Vans Space Voyager

Vans commemorates 60 years of space exploration with collection dedicated to NASA

Vans commemorates NASA with a time honoured collection of footwear and apparel that pays homage to six decades of space exploration and discovery. The Vans Space Voyager Collection lands on Superbalist today.

Inspired by the original space suits, the Space Voyager footwear collection showcases unique design details including exposed foam and interchangeable patch insignia. This launches a cosmic tribute on Vans timeless silhouettes including the Sk8-Hi and Old Skool, in addition to classic apparel and accessories pieces.

The collection includes eight footwear iterations ranging from adult to toddler sizing across the Sk8-Hi MTE, Old Skool and Classic Slip-On models. Two Sk8-Hi 46 MTE DX styles feature full-grain leather uppers, exposed foam and the NASA Meatball Insignia on the quarter panels and are finished with a black lacing system.

For the Old Skool styles, Vans introduces the iconic orange colourway with a black NASA worm logotype and lacing details, alongside a clean all-white version which showcases an exposed foam collar and rigid marshmallow outsole. The youth styles incorporate a Slip-On featuring a black galaxy print upper with a glitter gum outsole, as well as a white Sk8-Hi MTE outfitted with a black space boot inspired outsole. The Sk8-Hi MTE styles feature Vans MTE 360™ technology that enhances heat retention around the foot and improves moisture management within each shoe, along with a durable lugged outsole for increased traction.
