California skate brand Vans is celebrating the warm summer months with their new Color Pack. The release is headlined by colorful versions of the Slip-On and Half Cab. Specifically, both models are done up in two-tone variations (primary color/white midsole) that include orange, yellow, red, blue, and green. The Vans Sk8-Hi & Slip-On Color Pack will be hitting your favorite skate account in the next couple of months, so keep your eyes peeled.

Vans recently consorted with Holland-based artist Parra to produce three limited versions of classic skate models. The collaboration recently debuted at the BRIGHT fashion showcase in Frankfurt, Germany. Parra drew inspiration for this predominantly white, orange, pink, and powder blue package from memories of boarding as a youth in Europe. The Vans x Parra pack should hit retailers this Fall, so be on the lookout for updates! Via hs.

The last time we saw Parra included in a project was with Nike last year where the Dutch artist designed a pair of Air Max 95s made up of white, red, blue and pink. In 2009, Parra will also be commissioned to put his signature artwork on sneakers, but this time around it is Vans who seeks the well-known artisan. The Parra x Vans Pack consists of the Sk8-Hi and Era as well as matching apparel. The Sk8-Hi features skateboard graphics while the Era is kept in solid colors. Both sport white, blue, black and pink. Release is expecting for July at Vans retailers. Via mashKULTURE.

Having already two collaborations under his belt, Christian Hosoi is back at it again with Vans with a different look in mind. The Sk8-Hi Vert Pro Hosoi Pack is made up of two Sk8-His that features premium leather with perforations. However, the pack sports the traditional white, red and black color scheme as found in his past two showings, but don’t expect to find the rising sun design on either of the Sk8-His. Both will be available tomorrow at HUF.

Skate company Vans loves nature–after all, boarding and its interrelated subculture directly correlate with gettin’ out there and bustin’ a kickflip outdoors, right? It comes to no suprise then that the brand recently reworked their iconic SK8-Hi and Slip-On models to encompass the ecological world. Leopard print and an intriguing zebra pattern were creatively applied to the upper of each shoe. Celebrate your PETA pride today! The Vans “Animal” Series (or the Leopard SK8-Hi, Zebra SK8-Hi, Leopard Slip-On, and Zebra Slip-On for those keeping score at home) is available now at Japanese retailer ABC-Mart.
