Vans and Opening Ceremony have reunited to debut the first global collection of footwear, apparel and accessories.
They two brands forged a partnership rooted in celebrating creative expression and collaboration back in 2014.
Established in 2002, Opening Ceremony emerged as a creative, multi-brand retailer motivated by the principles of exploration and friendship. It has since celebrated many unique and diverse perspectives of people and countries around the world.
Opening Ceremony founders Carol Lim and Humberto Leon, both of whom are famous designers in their own right. They have amplified voices and pushed boundaries that often reach far beyond the fashion world.
