Merci x Vans Launch Capsule Collection
2026-04-10
Vans and Merci come together to unveil a limited-edition capsule collection that merges Vans’ “Off The Wall” ethos with Merci’s signature Parisian sensibility. The collaboration celebrates a shared appreciation for creativity, community, and effortless style - bridging Southern California skate culture with understated French design.
Spanning tees, crew sweaters, bandanas, and skate decks, the capsule is designed to invite everyone in - from fashion enthusiasts to collectors to the next generation of creatives.
Hand-drawn artwork, fine embroideries, subtle checker details, and tactile finishes come together in a refined yet playful palette, honoring both brands’ heritage - familiar, yet new.
To mark the launch, Vans will take over the Merci store with a custom skate bowl installation designed by Merci architects and design studio Atelier Veneer. The immersive space reimagines the retail environment as a cultural meeting point, bringing the energy of skateboarding into the heart of Paris.
The Merci x Vans capsule collection will be available at the Merci store from April 9th and on Vans.com and Merci.com from April 10th.

About MERCI
Merci is an invitation to explore, a space where we question our habits and where every object tells a story. At 111 Boulevard Beaumarchais, the historic store unfolds its singular universe: a place for wandering, discovery, and inspiration. An echo of influences from here and elsewhere, it is an ode to the right object and to timeless design. At 19 Rue de Richelieu, Merci’s new address continues this quest for meaning within an unexpected setting. A new way of inhabiting the city, of reclaiming space, and of integrating everyday objects with modernity and boldness.
