Young Thug delivered one of Coachella’s strongest footwear moments in a custom pair of Sp5der x Vans Slip-Ons made by Mattias Gollin. Worn on stage during Weekend 1, the pair pushed his performance look even further and instantly grabbed attention with its detailed, jewelry-like finish.
The black Slip-Ons feature distressed canvas construction covered in hand-applied stones arranged in Sp5der’s signature web pattern. That design choice ties the shoes directly to Young Thug’s fashion label while giving the classic Vans silhouette a much louder and more luxurious edge. The result feels more like wearable art than a simple festival custom.
Mattias Gollin continues to build a serious name through highly limited Vans creations, and this project adds another standout entry to that catalog. The Italy-based designer is known for turning Vans models into collectible statement pieces using intricate stone work, and Young Thug’s Coachella pair fits that lane perfectly. A white version has also been teased, suggesting this concept may return for another on-stage appearance.
These Sp5der x Vans Slip-Ons were created exclusively for Young Thug, so there are no plans for a public release at this time. Even so, the custom has already made an impact thanks to its mix of fashion, music, and sneaker culture. For now, this remains a one-off Coachella flex that shows how far a Vans Slip-On can be pushed with the right creative vision.
