Today, in a press release, the two companies announced that the Nintendo collection of Vans shoes would be launched on June 3rd in the United States and Europe… that’s this Friday! In the rest of the world, it will be available later this month, at select retailers.
Here’s some of the models launching

Worried about the size? The shoes will be available in various sizes, from toddles and kids to adult, including both women and men.
What’s more, the press release reveals that besides the footwear, some Nintendo x Vans apparel and accessories will be released: co-branded tees, backpacks, bags, socks, and hats. Those will come in prints that tie back to the shoes.
