Is Vans an early contender for sneaker brand of the year? From exciting new partnerships with icons like SZA to its trendsetting embellishment narrative, the skate specialists are off to an energy-packed start to 2026.
Returning this week is the Pearlized series, which places crystals and pearls atop iconic silhouettes. Looking first at the Old Skool 36, it takes on “Navy” and “Vintage Cocoa” (pictured here) colorways that not only feature ornamentation, but aged detailing at the upper and midsole. Meanwhile, the Classic Slip-On returns with a leather and canvas composition that similarly sports faux wear and the Pearlized treatment. Colorways of “Indigo Blue” and “Blackout” are joined by a “Camo Black” (pictured here).
For those looking to pick up a pair, the Vans Pearlized series continues with the Old Skool 36 and Classic Slip-On dropping in these colorways tomorrow, March 19, via Vans and select retailers such as MACHUS at prices of $110 USD for the Classic Slip-On and $130 USD for the Old Skool 36. The “Vintage Cocoa” version of the Old Skool 36 will be available on April 21.
