Vans' luxe sub-label OTW launched at the top of 2024, linking with Sterling Ruby's S.R. STUDIO. LA. CA. for its first official collaboration. Months later, the two are back again, ending the year with a bang of even bolder and more luxurious sneakers.

The second S.R. STUDIO. LA. CA. x OTW by Vans collection furthers what the partnership has already created, moving from previous neon shades to more refined colors.

A premium patterned Sk8-Hi 38 sneaker leads the footwear lineup. This high-top skate shoe is covered with Ruby's signature S.R. claw pattern in bold yellow and green. Expect to find luxe details throughout the shoes, like high-quality goat leather linings and glossy sidewalls.

The sneaker collection also includes a black SK8 Hi 38, a green Old Skool 36 sneaker, and a yellow Slip-On 98. Each features the same high-end construction and seriously grippy Vibram soles.

For the first time, the S.R. STUDIO. LA. CA. x Vans collab features clothing options. Specifically, a T-shirt, hoodie, and long-sleeve shirt comprise the apparel portion, featuring more of Ruby's signature motifs, like the distinctive jack-o'-lantern graphics.

As we speak, the entire second S.R. STUDIO. LA. CA x Vans collaboration is now available for purchase on Vans' website.

Considering Vans OTW was the first brand S.R. STUDIO. LA. CA. teamed up with, these collabs are far and few in between. And it feels only right that Vans OTW ends its stellar debut year with its first collaborator.
