In an effort to increase awareness about endangered species, Vans collaborated with renowned illustrator Ralph Steadman to launch a special collection. The outcome of this collaboration was the introduction of the Ralph Steadman x OG Classic Slip-On LX 'Checkerboard Splatter' shoe in May 2019. This unique sneaker showcases a canvas upper adorned with a striking and thought-provoking illustration that symbolizes the urgent need to protect vulnerable species. As is characteristic of Vans Slip-On footwear, this sneaker sports a sleek design and is complete with a durable vulcanized sole and rubber tread.
