Vans’ influential OTW line (Off The Wall) and iconic Japanese streetwear brand NEIGHBORHOOD have teamed up for the sixth time unveiling a capsule anchored by two signature silhouettes namely the Half Cab 33 and Classic Slip-On 98.
This creative partnership continues to push the boundaries between skate heritage and urban fashion, demonstrating both brands’ deep connection to the creative community and cultural innovation.
A Meeting of Two Icons
Vans, synonymous with the Southern California skate and street scene, and NEIGHBORHOOD, a pioneer in Japanese urban style, share a history of mutual respect. Their collaborations are known for blending functional skate details with high-quality materials, unexpected design flourishes, and a vibe that feels at once laid-back and elevated. The latest drop brings that energy to two of Vans’ most legendary shoes.
The Half Cab 33: Skate DNA Reimagined
First up is the Half Cab 33—a nod to Steve Caballero’s world-famous pro model, which has long stood at the center of street skating history. The NEIGHBORHOOD remix incorporates premium suede uppers, subtle custom stitching, and unique branding elements—blending Caballero’s performance-first DNA with NEIGHBORHOOD’s sharp, understated aesthetic. Expect a tonal color palette, classic gum soles, and detailing that appeals to collectors and core skaters alike. Each pair balances tradition and modern style, making this a standout for both everyday wear and display.
The Classic Slip-On 98: Streetwear Simplicity, Elevated
The capsule also features the Classic Slip-On 98, Vans’ ultimate go-anywhere shoe, subtly reinvented for this collab. NEIGHBORHOOD delivers a minimalist approach: clean lines, rich canvas and leather, custom side tags, and subtle script embroidery. With its easy silhouette, comfort-focused construction, and a monochrome presentation, the Slip-On 98 becomes a blank canvas for NEIGHBORHOOD ’s vision—unmistakably Vans, yet with a distinct streetwise edge.
Craft, Community, and Collectibility
For fans and sneakerheads, each OTW x NEIGHBORHOOD release is about more than footwear—it’s a chance to own a piece of collaborative design history. The brands put emphasis on quality materials and small-batch production, making every drop highly sought after. Both shoes are set to be released in select stores and online at special retailers known for curating the best of streetwear and skate culture.
This release reinforces how meaningful partnerships can unite skateboarding’s creative roots with street fashion’s uncompromising cool. Expect pairs to move quickly, with interest from collectors, riders, and style hunters across the globe.
Release Information
The OTW by Vans x NEIGHBORHOOD capsule featuring the Half Cab 33 and Classic Slip-On 98 will be available for Fall 2025 through select global retailers and online at Vans and NEIGHBORHOOD flagship platforms. For fans who want a piece of this collaboration, staying alert for release info and early drops will be key.
In its sixth collaboration, Vans and NEIGHBORHOOD again prove the power of tradition, creativity, and shared culture—with footwear that’s built for the session, the sidewalk, and the collector’s shelf.
