Fresh off ComplexCon, the creative spotlight shifts to Las Vegas for DesignerCon 2025, where Vans is marking the event’s 20th anniversary with an ultra-limited DesignerCon x Vans Half Cab collaboration. Only 200 pairs of this colorful edition will be available exclusively at the show.
This release feels like a perfect match — Steve Caballero’s classic skate silhouette meets the world’s biggest design convention. The pair blends bright blue canvas and suede uppers, a bold red tongue, lime-green piping, and the iconic Half Cab patch in brown and yellow. On the heel, custom DesignerCon embroidery celebrates the milestone event, bringing a collectible twist that fans will appreciate.
DesignerCon COO Kai Yuan Kevin Cao called the project a celebration of community and creativity: “The Half Cab embodies 20 years of authenticity and collaboration.” It’s the harmony between skate legacy and art-led narrative that makes this drop unique.”
The DesignerCon x Vans Half Cab drops November 14–16, 2025, at DesignerCon in Las Vegas. They’ll be available for VIP attendees first, followed by availability during the event throughout the weekend.
