Vibrant Tie-Dye Sneakers

Vans Japan Introduces Two Tonal-Explosive 'Mysterioso' Sneakers

— March 13, 2019 — Fashion
Vans Japan introduces the latest pack of 'Mysterioso' sneaker that centers the signature Old Skools and Slip-On footwear silhouettes as the foundation. The main design component spotlights the burst of color along with mismatching patterning, standing out from the usual drops.

The pack features two Old Skool sneakers and one pair of Slip-Ons -- the first Old Skool is complete in mismatching accents. The Mysterioso tie-dye highlights hues of blue as the base before it is decorated in splashes of yellow toned down by suede toe caps and heel caps. Notably, the laces are also tie-dyed in the same color palette. All of the sneaker options are rounded out with black foxing and white midsoles to ground the vibrant pack.
Trend Themes
1. Tie-dye Footwear - The trend of vibrant tie-dye sneakers creates an opportunity for other footwear brands to release their own colorful and unique designs.
2. Mismatching Accents - The use of mismatching accents in the Mysterioso pack can inspire other apparel and accessory brands to experiment with non-traditional patterns and color combinations.
3. Signature Silhouettes - Using popular and recognizable silhouettes like the Old Skools and Slip-Ons can be a way for sneaker brands to introduce new, eye-catching designs while still leveraging their core products.
Industry Implications
1. Footwear - The trend of vibrant tie-dye sneakers can be capitalized by sneakers, sportswear, or lifestyle footwear brands looking to attract fashion-conscious consumers.
2. Fashion Accessories - Apparel and accessories brands that aim to push boundaries can leverage the boldness of mismatched tie-dye patterns to introduce a new level of quirkiness to their collections.
3. Streetwear - Streetwear brands can leverage the popularity of signature silhouettes and tie-dye patterns to create distinctive collections that appeal to their core audience while still innovating in design and colorways.
