Skate/lifestyle brand Vans has been the purveyor of some of the more artful, fun-filled collaborations in recent memory, and their upcoming partnership with Nintendo might be one of the best ever. Teaming up with Japanese video game icon Nintendo, Vans colors up the Authentic, Sk8-hi, Old Skool, and Slip-On with graphics and details inspired by some of the most game-changing video game experiences of the 80s and early 90s. You’ll find Super Mario Bros., The Legend Of Zelda, Duck Hunt, Donkey Kong, and more, while other renditions pay homage to the signature details of the gaming console like the controller and other 8-bit pixelated visuals. The entire Vans x Nintendo footwear collection is set for a retail release on June 3rd in adult and kids sizes at select locations worldwide. Get a detailed look at some of these old school gems and let us know which video game strikes a nostalgic chord in you.
