# Earth-Themed Fashion Collections Vans Debuted the Sustainable 'Eco Positivity Collection' By Colin Smith | Published 2022-04-07 | Eco Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/eco-positivity-collection References: [vans](https://www.vans.ca/en-ca/sustainability) & [vans](https://www.vans.ca/en-ca/categories/eco-positivity-c5530) Vans has announced a new line of [sustainable apparel](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/c-collection), named the 'Eco Positivity Collection'. The collection includes footwear and apparel such as a pair of shorts and a "shacket," a cross between a jacket and a shirt. The items in this collection incorporate organic, recycled, and sustainable materials such as organic cotton, hemp, and biobased foam. The brand is passionate about creating a more sustainable model that ensures future generations will be able to experience the world in a great way. The '[Circle Vee](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/supernatural-runner)' footwear in this collection has a low collar, making it perfect for the spring and summer seasons. The toe vamp on the shoes, when placed together, read the phrase "Shine your light on the world," to encourage self-expression and positive action, falling in line with [Vans'](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bmx-athletes) 'Off the Wall' slogan. The shacket also has encouraging environmentally-friendly phrases, such as "It's only natural to care for the earth" or "Make a difference, be the change."
