The third and final drop of the Vans Premium Old Skool Music Collection is officially here and I think it’s my personal favorite. Featuring a solid variety of bold colorways paired with a classic gum sole, this limited release is available now at select shops and on the Vans site.

“We linked up with Detriot’s Hi-Tech for the third and final drop from the Premium Old Skool Music Collection,” Vans mentions on their site.
“Featuring a batch of vibrant colors on gum soles that call back to sought-after colorways from the 2010s, when indie hip hop and skateboarding merged to take the Old Skool to new places. All on our Premium build with enhanced cushioning, improved fit and archival design details.”

Real quick—since we’re here talking about Old Skools—have you seen the new Old Skool 36 FM that Vans recently dropped? Tap that post above and trip out.
Okay, back to the music. I’ve been skating Old Skools for years and agree that their timeless style is hard to beat. They obviously aren’t the most tech-heavy kicks, but you’re lying if you’re gonna tell me you’ve never picked style over function, at least once in your life. Plus, Berle skates ’em! What’s your excuse?

Anyways, I’m personally hyped on the variety in this third drop. I’m not a huge gum sole person, but that’s because we usually just see gum soles with a black or white upper. Some of these color combos are super rad.
And as far as the story behind the collection, well, it’s not often a collection hits this many subcultures at once. Skateboarding, hip-hop, punk rock, this, that, whatever. They nailed it. Simple as that.
