Editor’s Notes: Commonwealth and Vans have teamed up for the first time, reworking two classic models: the Era and Slip-On. Both kicks have a slight military-style look, with the Era dressed in “Desert Sage” and the Slip-On in “Lark Tan” colorways. But the major takeaway here is Commonwealth’s addition of socially conscious messaging, with embossed midsoles that take a stand for political change and human equality.
Check out both models in detail above and look for the collection to drop exclusively at Commonwealth flagships and online on May 18.
