To commemorate Bowie’s epic Aladdin Sane album, Vans decided to release two styles featuring Ziggy’s signature red and blue lightning bolt. The Old School option comes in a pearlescent white color.

The Sk8-Hi model features a checkerboard printed sidewall.

Vans also paid tribute to Bowie’s final album, ★, which was released in 2016.
