Editor’s Notes: A$AP Rocky might not be having a baby with Rihanna, but the rapper does have a third Vans drop cooking.
Over the weekend, our favorite Fashion Killa stepped out in New York City wearing a new silhouette from his Vans partnership, part of his tenure as Pacsun’s guest artistic director.
The artist pulled up to Pacsun’s Soho flagship fitted in an ERL puffer and coordinating ERL hoodie, paired with pants from his third AWGE x Needles collection.
Finishing off the look are what appear to be an unreleased pair of A$AP Wordwide x Vans Slip-Ons, decked out in orange flames that wrap around the lateral to the toe.
Per Pacsun, the shoes will release in early 2022 alongside new pairs of the Slip-On Mule.
Back in July, Pacsun broke the rather surprising news that A$AP Rocky would join the retailer as its first guest artistic director, a role that grants Flacko control over designer collaborations, campaigns, and in-store activations.
The deal included a series of collaborations with Vans, a brand Rocky has a long history of wearing.
“Vans have always been a closet staple,” he said of his upcoming drop, which keeps with the fiery theme of his past two releases: flame-accented takes on the Old Skool and Slip-On Mule.
