Vans and Valentino add More $490 Slip-Ons to their Luxurious Collab Collection

The mix of high and low fashion for unexpected collaborations isn’t so unexpected anymore, but the price tags are still shocking. Following an initial collab from spring 2025, legendary luxury designer Valentino and Southern California skate shoe originators Vans are back with a new pack of co-branded Slip-Ons, complete with an eye-popping $490 retail ticket.

The Valentino x Vans Collection Spring 2026 features six pairs of classic Vans Slip-Ons covered in all-over print Valentino branding in various logo prints and cartoon graphics. Like the first two pairs of Valentino x Vans Slip-Ons from last year, the collection leans on the Vans checkerboard print, adding Valentino “V” logos and avant-garde graphics, like large dots or cartoon cat heads overlaid on top.

Two pairs from the collection do away with the checkerboard theme and opt for a black canvas upper, with one colorway adding cartoon tropical plant graphics and the other featuring all-over print cherries. Every pair in the collection features custom co-branded insoles and co-branded packaging worthy of the luxury label.

The Valentino x Vans Collection Spring 2026 will be released today, January 15, 2026 through Valentino and Vans, online and at select in-store retail locations. Available in unisex sizing, the retail price is set at $490. For all the latest Vans collab news, download the Sole Retriever mobile app.
