The upcoming drop includes an Atiba Jefferson-shot campaign featuring Tim Armstrong of Rancid, The Paradox, N8NOFACE, Toby Morse of H2O and many more. 

Following the launch of the 2026 Vans Warped Tour, the skate culture and apparel authority has again teamed with punk icon Travis Barker for the release of another collaborative collection.

Set to arrive June 18th, 'Dues Paid' showcases the connective culture among punk, skate and Barker's home of Southern California - all of which remain integral to his creative foundation. “My first pair of shoes was a pair of Vans,” explained Travis Barker. “Growing up in Fontana, I always connected the brand to skateboarding, BMX, and punk culture. Once I started seeing my idols wearing them too, it really sealed it for me. To me, they were always the coolest shoes. This partnership was an easy call because it’s a brand I’ve genuinely loved and identified with since way, way back.”

Coupled with a new campaign shot by acclaimed photographer and Brand Curator Atiba Jefferson, 'Dues Paid' features a generational roster of punk contributors including Tim Armstrong of Rancid, Toby Morse of H2O, Missy from Mannequin Pussy, The Paradox, N8NOFACE and more. 

The collection drops June 18th via VANS. Shop the collection - HERE
