Showcasing Vans’ dedication to artistic collaboration, Vans has partnered with Los Angeles-based artist Mister Cartoon and Japanese streetwear staple NEIGHBORHOOD for the latest Waffle Lovers release.
In a cross-culture collaboration, Mister Cartoon and NEIGHBORHOOD offer up an imagined Liquor Mart called “Uncle Toons Mart.” With a focus on Californian lifestyle, Vans merges this three-way partnership with a two-pack of Vans footwear inspired by each collaborator. With his artwork largely synonymous with Los Angeles street culture, Mister Cartoon is best known for his tattoo-inspired creative style. United by their longtime dedication to craftsmanship and attention to detail, Mister Cartoon and NEIGHBORHOOD find common ground while maintaining their respective cultural relevance.
Vans’ Uncle Toons Mart by NEIGHBORHOOD collection features an Authentic 44 DX accompanied by an Old Skool 36 DX. Both featuring characteristics from both involved. Uniting the backstreets of Tokyo’s Ura-Harajuku district and the streets of Mister Cartoon’s Los Angeles — Uncle Toons Mart by NEIGHBORHOOD is a serendipitous melding of Tokyo street style and Los Angeles street life.
