Vans and National Geographic come together for a collection of footwear
and apparel that celebrates over 130 years of the never-ending quest to
explore our planet. Honoring National Geographic's longstanding
tradition of seeking and storytelling, the Vans X National Geographic
Photo Ark Old Skool combines the low top sidestripe lace-up with organic
cotton uppers and animal photographs taken from the National Geographic
Photo Ark project. It also includes re-enforced toecaps to withstand
repeated wear, padded collars for support and flexibility, and signature
rubber waffle outsoles.
The National Geographic Photo Ark is
using the power of photography to inspire people to help save species at
risk before it's too late. Photo Ark founder Joel Sartore has
photographed more than 9,000 species around the world as part of a
multiyear effort to document every species living in zoos and wildlife
sanctuaries, inspire action through education, and help save wildlife by
supporting on-the-ground conservation efforts.
