Vans Goes 80s Ugly With Bowie Collection

Vans David Bowie Collection

The 80s fashion trends continue with the soon to be released Vans David Bowie collection. More Ziggy Stardust and Aladdin Sane than the Thin White Duke, the four pairs of collaborative kicks are colorful, quirky and well, downright ugly. But that is undoubtedly part of their appeal.

The limited edition collection includes four pair of Vans, each designed in one of their four most popular silhouettes; the Slip-On 47 V DX, Old Skool, Era, and Sk8-Hi.
