Vault by Vans tribute to Frida Kahlo

The Californian brand celebrates the work of the Mexican artist with three new sneakers. Known for her self-portraits and works inspired by Mexico, the Vault collection of Vans x Frida Kahlo brings a curated sample of the iconic artist’s paintings in the classic Vans silhouettes. A collection to celebrate art and to inspire the world. 

Strongly influenced by the Mexican heritage, Frida Kahlo used a naive folkloric-artistic style to explore issues of identity, post-colonialism, gender, class and race in the Mexican society. Her life took her through the USA, Europe and Mexico and sometimes it turned out to be painful, a fact that added to her legacy. The constant reconstruction of her identity and her creation of a personal and alternative world is reflected in most of their works.
