Matt Varga As two of the more totemic imprints in skating, it was only right when Palace and Vans finally joined forces. Issuing over a dozen colorways dating back to their 2018 link up for the 25th anniversary, their output has been consistent in the time since, now leaning into monochromatic fare with a set of Palace x Vans Old Skool 36 for the clothing brand’s Summer 2025 collection.
This three-pack shouldn’t be all too far off from the pairs you find on retail shelves, maintaining all the same hardware notes. The upper of each shoe opts for a rich, darkened primary color, in “Forest” green, “Port” red, and black, each tone coating plush suede panels. To really drove home the impact, the stitching also embraces this monochromatic theme, shifting away from the white contrast the Old Skool 36 usually embraces. You instead get that brightening effect with an all-white vulcanized sole unit. To close out, debossed Vans text settles on the tongue of each shoe, while the spell-out Palace logo lands on the heel.
The Palace x Vans Old Skool 36, as well of the rest of the Palace Summer collection, releases on Friday, May 9th via the Palace US, UK, EU sites and in-store locations. Their Asian channels will stock everything a day later. Catch images of all three colorways included below.
