VANS AND PALACE JOIN FORCES FOR FIRST-EVER COLLABORATION

by Stephen Garner

Vans has teamed up with London-based skate brand Palace for the first time on a footwear and apparel collection.

The collection – the brainchild of Palace’s newest employee, Jeremy the Duck – is centered around Vans’ signature Skate Authentic sneaker, which has been given the Palace treatment with a repeat pattern of Jeremy himself, available in salmon, black, and classic white. Jeremy is also featured on the Palace Vans Duck Out long sleeve which is available in the same color palette.

Palace and Vans have released an accompanying video featuring Palace pros Rory Milanes and Danny Brady and London comedy duo Jonah and Stan to celebrate the collaboration. The video gives viewers some stirring documentary insight into how the partnership came about, and a first-time, real-life look at Palace’s “Employee of the Month, Every Month,” Jeremy the Duck.

The Vans x Palace footwear and apparel collection will be available from Palace Shops in London, NYC, Los Angeles, and Dover Street Market in London and Los Angeles from 11am on July 2nd. Tokyo and WeChat China will have the collection from on July 3rd.
