Editor’s Notes: Vans has linked up with Disney to give Tim Burton's classic stop-motion animation The Nightmare Before Christmas a new lease of life, turning four classic shoe silhouettes into tributes to the iconic movie.

The recently-released teaser images reveal a variety of playful graphics spread across the Sk8-Hi, Authentic, Old-Skool, and Slip-On sneakers. Most feature character illustrations, depicting the likes of Sally, Zero, and the Zombie Band. The homage to Jack Skellington is probably the most head-turning, with the entire Slip-On transformed into an appliquéd and pin-striped interpretation of his character.

These spooky kicks will drop just in time for Halloween on October 4 at van retailers and its online shop. Check out the collection in the gallery above.
