Vans Debuts Curren Caples’ First Signature Skate Shoe

Vans introduces the CURREN, the first signature skate shoe from team rider Curren Caples. Designed for peak vulcanized performance, the silhouette features a custom outsole with SICKSTICK™ rubber for grip, DURACAP™ reinforcements for durability, and POPCUSH™ insoles for impact protection. Rooted in Curren’s California skate heritage, the shoe reflects his straightforward style and technical needs. The launch campaign, styled like a playful fragrance ad, includes visuals by Gray Sorrenti and Grant Yansura, with cameos from Vans icons like Ray Barbee and Geoff Rowley.

The Curren Red/White is available May 15, and the VCU in an all-black colorway is available now.
