Vans Skateboarding has introduced three fresh color schemes and a revamped design for the AVE 2.0, which the company celebrates as its “most sophisticated skateboarding footwear to date.”
The unmistakable professional skateboarder Anthony Van Engelen, widely recognized as AVE, and the shoe company initially joined forces five years prior. The AVE 2.0 debuted in March of 2024 sporting a knit texture. The latest version of the trainer swaps in airy mesh for the prior knit composition. Moreover, the AVE 2.0 now comes in novel shades named medium grey, and lavender fog/black. There’s also an exclusive AVE bench green color that will be sold solely in select skateboard stores.
In a statement issued by Vans, the kicks’, “upper’s newly introduced base material consists of the described mesh, fused to RapidWeld™ suede and artificial TPU. Gentler heel stabilizers along with extra padding around the tongue and collar result in enhanced comfort, while the advanced UltraCush™ midsole fitted with a TPU reinforcement shank and an outsole merging an UltimateWaffle™ traction motif with sticky SickStick™ rubber.”
Key Vans Skateboarding squad members such as Willow Voges Fernandez, Tyson Peterson, Nelly Morville, and Diego Todd feature prominently in the AVE 2.0’s promotional efforts.
The impending wave of footwear will hit shelves starting June 13, accessible for acquisition digitally via vans.com/skate and at select skateboard distributorships.
With several engagements in Paris from June 18 to June 22, Vans is preparing to honor the launch. Festivities throughout this time will include skate get-togethers, art exhibitions, and an unexpected brand happening orchestrated by OTW by Vans.
Meanwhile, in other Vans-connected developments, the enterprise is jointly working with Supreme to present a bold statement on the flank of the Sid trainer: “F–k Em!” These trainers are presented in hues of blue, red, and black. Additionally, Vans is collaborating with Proenza Schouler on the unveiling of a puffy slip-on trainer.
