OTW by Vans X Julian Klincewicz Old Skool 36

Born from the iconic low-top silhouette once known as Style 36, this OTW by Vans x Julian Klincewicz edition reimagines a classic through texture, storytelling, and intimate artistic detail. Hairy suede overlays introduce rich texture, balanced by a smooth, buttery leather tongue with a custom label featuring a spontaneous road sketch pulled from Julian’s 11-year ritual of daily to-do lists, quiet creative seeds and a glimpse into Julian's inner world unfolding. A custom charm of Roo, Julian’s beloved golden retriever and red fox lab mix, grounds the shoe in warmth and personal history, while practical upgrades like a soft padded collar and a cushioned insole elevate durability and comfort. Inside, a co-branded footbed decorated with Julian’s Joyous Chorus artwork channels the spontaneity, lightness, and togetherness of the collaboration. Finished with an OTW multi-layered rainbow heel scab, signature waffle outsole, and custom packaging, this shoe becomes more than footwear as a personal narrative, an artwork in motion, and an invitation to step into the Joyous Chorus.
