Born X Raised and Vans have officially previewed their upcoming Born X Raised x Vans Authentic 44 collection. The forthcoming collaborative pack follows an exclusive community event at House of Vans Mexico City where a 50-pair Friends and Family edition was initially revealed.
Designed by Born X Raised co-founder Alex “2Tone” Erdmann, the upcoming retail iteration translates the hand-sketched aesthetic seen on the Mexico City exclusive across white, black, and blue colorways previewed during Paris Fashion Week. The shoes feature distressed canvas, scuffed edges, and yellowed midsoles to achieve a worn-in appearance. Pen-style illustrations cover the uppers, detailing brick wall patterns around the toe and heel alongside spiders, webs, teardrops, "OFF THE WALL" typography, and paint splatter accents.
A matching apparel capsule accompanies the footwear rollout. The clothing selection includes a washed black hoodie and sweatpants set, black and blue graphic T-shirts, a mesh football jersey embellished with Born X Raised’s signature Old English branding, and khaki trousers.
The Born X Raised x Vans Authentic 44 collection officially releases during the SS27 season via Born X Raised, Vans, and select retailers.
