The Vans Vault 2014 Collection is a Joint Force with Star Wars

The Vans Vault 2014 Spring/Summer Collection is out of this world. The collection is in collaboration with the Star Wars franchise and features six galaxy-inspired sneakers.

Seeing as Star Wars has been a cult film for decades upon decades, Vans couldn't have picked a better theme for the collection. The shoes are perfect for Star Wars fans but they are also simple enough and visually appealing for non-fans too. The sneakers combine classic Vans silhouettes with galactic graphics and Star Wars character imagery.

Some models feature vibrant neon elements and black and red Darth Storm prints, but if you want to join the dark side, then the OG Era LXs and OG Sk8-Hi LXs, which are predominately black and Darth Vader-themed, are for you.
