Valentino Garavani and Vans Exclusive Collaboration
Maison Valentino introduces the Valentino Garavani and Vans sneakers, an exclusive collaboration that brings together Vans’ authentic spirit with the Maison’s unmistakable identity.
First unveiled on the runway of Valentino Le Méta Théâtre Des Intimités, the Fall/Winter 2025-26 collection by Creative Director Alessandro Michele presented in Paris last March, the sneakers appeared as a defining element of selected looks.
Built on the Vans Authentic, the original silhouette introduced in 1966, Valentino Garavani and Vans reinterpret this classic through Alessandro Michele’s vision. This time-honored shoe keeps its authenticity alive with sturdy canvas uppers in a range of colorways. With its classic low-top design and iconic rubber waffle outsole, this sneaker continues to embody a timeless attitude across generations.

The selection includes six variations for both women and men, proposed in multiple patterns and finished with co-branded insoles. Among the different styles, the edition featuring the playful Valentino Le Chat de la Maison motif will be exclusively offered through Valentino boutiques, Valentino.com and the Vans flagship store on Oxford Street in London.
Each pair comes in special packaging highlighting the Vans checkerboard motif, reimagined with the Valentino VLogo Signature. The Valentino Garavani and Vans sneakers will launch on Valentino.com on September 12th and will be available in Valentino boutiques worldwide, Vans.com and at the Vans flagship store in London starting from September 19th.
A creative dialogue between two distinct worlds, the Valentino Garavani and Vans sneakers embody a shared vision of authenticity and individuality.
