The garments pay homage to the rich history that is shared by the two brands. As a retail destination, WP is known for its innovative buying practices and for introducing international brands to Italy. The business has carried Vans since 1982 and so, the two had a lot to work with for the [head-to-toe fashion capsule](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/one-block-down-2). The new range draws inspiration from [Vans'](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bmx-athletes) exclusive patchwork bandanas found in the WP archive, as well as the fashion of the 1980s Paninari movement. The collection boasts a [three-pack of Vans Authentic sneakers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/skate-authentic-high), a stonewash denim Loose Fit Jean Jacket and Loose Fit Five-Pocket Jean with bandana linings, and four T-shirts, including a WP-exclusive design featuring a logo from the 90s.
