Pearls in Paris: The Vans Old Skool Pearlized Pack Expands for 2027

Vans is looking to keep the vibe going. After dominating the first half of this year with carefully curated selections of bejeweled classics, collabs, and constant dedication to the skate industry, the Southern California skate shoe originators hopped a plane to Paris to extend the party.

Vans’ Pearlized Pack Shines in Paris

On the ground in France, Vans showed off six new Old Skool colorways from the brand’s Pearlized Pack, showing no signs of slowing down the OTW line’s jewelry motif. Beyond the white pearls and silver studs that adorn the toebox, heel, and stripe logo, the pairs add suede and canvas in classic monochromes and colorful camos.

The collection starts with bejeweled pairs in triple black and triple white with a black foxing stripe. From there, a two-tone yellow and black pair and a red canvas and suede makeup add some color. Finally, the camouflage arrives with two shades of blue on one pair and a classic olive camo mix on the other.
