Vans pays homage to David Bowie’s iconic legacy with an Off The Wall collection that draws inspiration from some of his most influential works.
The limited-edition collection, which includes fashion sneakers, tees, and hats, is meant to represent remarkable moments from the Aladdin Sane and Ziggy Stardust album covers to the Serious Moonlight tour.
The English singer-songwriter died from liver cancer in his New York City apartment on January 10, 2016. Below you’ll find just some of our favorite shoes from the collection:
