Over the years, Vans has taken its classic silhouettes and built them into hybrid hikers and runners, pushing the limits of a skate shoe in every way. With its latest collaboration, the SoCal skate staple takes things a couple of steps further, teaming up with high-fashion streetwear veterans OAMC for a pack of Vibram-soled Oxfords and army boots retooled from iconic Vans models.

The OAMC x Vans OTW features two new silhouettes, an Authentic Oxford and a Half Cab SP Boot, both constructed with thick, durable Vibram soles and reinforced uppers for whatever the world throws your way. In the editorial campaign for the new collab, OAMC and Vans threw everything they could think of at the pairs, from rain and mud to bowling balls, ball bearings, and spaghetti. Safe to say, both new shoes withstood it all.

Both silhouettes arrive in three colorways: triple black, monochrome olive green, and an army camo mix of green, brown, black, and tan. The Authentic Oxford features a bulked-up version of the simple shoe, packed with thick canvas and hiking-style metal lace loops. The Half Cab SP Boot is ready for basic training with thick nubuck and reinforced mesh, hiking laces, and a zipper pocket on the ankle.

The OAMC x Vans OTW collection will be released February 20, 2026 through OAMC, Vans, and select retailers in-store and online. Available in unisex sizing, the retail prices are set at $160 for the Authentic Oxfords and $175 for the Half Cab SP Boots.
