No-Comply Skateshop and Daniel Johnston Drop a Capsule With Vans

— March 8, 2019 — Fashion
No-Comply Skateshop works in collaboration with Daniel Johnston on a joint Vans capsule that celebrates the skate shop's 12 anniversary in Texas. Johnston is a singer-songwriter and visual artist, who creates distinct designs specifically for the collaboration. The collection highlights the signature models of the Slip-On Pro and the Era Pro footwear models, decorating the silhouette with his exclusive designs.

The shoes are constructed from white canvas materials and adorned with the artistic doodles created by Johnston, referencing his albums 'Don't Be Scared' and 'Songs of Pain.' The details are seen on the wear guard and heel for the Slip-Ons, the midfoot, heel, and tongue for the Era, and the insoles and outsoles for both. The collaborative capsule is limited to only 320 pairs and will be available beginning March 13th, with proceeds donated to 'Hi, How Are You Project' -- it is an organization that aims to draw awareness to mental health.
