The partnership between OTW by Vans and Engineered Garments has always felt like a natural one, both brands prioritizing top-tier craftsmanship and needle-pushing designs. For the pair’s latest collaborative chapter, it’s fashioned a new take on the signature Slip-On 98 silhouette that comes rooted in history, but geared for the next generation.
The OTW by Vans x Engineered Garments Slip-On 98 lands in two colorways – red/navy and black/blue – and takes an asymmetrical aesthetic.
“We wanted to look back and focus on the past, not only within our partnership but to what we knew of Vans,” Engineered Garments conveyed in a press statement, drawing from the brand’s rich archival history to inform the design process.
“The colorways we chose were influenced by an archival Vans advertisement of the Authentic,” EG continued.
“The image had a skater with two different colored Authentics and a quote reading they’d switched one side of the pair with a friend who skated the opposite stance. Taking an impactful image and incorporating colorblocking, a signature of Engineered Garments, onto our favorite Slip-On.”
