[PEOPLEGATE] Vans has unveiled a collection collaborating with Scotland's Harris Tweed®. The lineup of three shoe models and one type of hat will be released sequentially from September 24 through October 2.

This collaboration draws inspiration from London’s punk culture and Southern California’s skate culture. The products use Harris Tweed fabric produced in Scotland’s Outer Hebrides region. Harris Tweed is a pure wool textile handwoven by local islanders.
