Vans Unveils a Halloween Sneaker Collection With the Old Skool, Sk8-Hi and More

Vans is helping you get an early start on your Halloween garms, as its collection of spooky sneakers and apparel is out now. The California skateboarding stalwart has created five different footwear options for adults making use of a skull graphic that looks more haunted than haunting and glow-in-the-dark detailing.

The Old Skool, Old Skool Stackform, and Sk8-Hi all make use of the skull graphic atop a hazy print. The Old Skool and Sk8-Hi primarily stick with black and white, with both giving the skull red eyes and the Old Skool’s Jazz Stripe also taking on red The Old Skool Stackform opts for more color with its blue and green, tie-dye like base hosting a glow-in-the-dark skull. All three feature a very metal “Vans” word mark on the heel and an all-over bones print on the waffle outsole.

The Authentic is the most muted of the lot with a purplish-black haze enveloping the canvas upper, while a Sk8-Hi Tapered Stackform goes for the same idea in black and red with a glow-in-the-dark ribcage on the heel. A run of graphic tees also make use of glow-in-the-dark skull and rib cage marks, with a hat and crew socks also bearing the skull. Kiddos also get their own run of graphic tees and hoodies along with a Sk8-Mid Reissue V featuring bat skeletons in toddler sizing.

Vans’ Halloween wares are available now on its website with a range of $70 to a $100 for the footwear and $10 to $50 on the apparel and accessories.
