Gallery Dept. x Vans OTW Authentic Reissue 44 "Canvas Paint"

TLDR: Vans is launching an exclusive collaboration with Gallery Dept via the new OTW label. The joint version of the Authentic Reissue 44 is an artistic masterpiece - with splashes of colour, grease stains and the ‘Art That Kills’ lettering. Inspired by the energy of an artist's studio, the hand-painted canvas sneaker will be launched on 27 March at a price of €150.

The collaboration between Gallery Dept. and Vans OTW puts the creative process centre stage. The limited edition Authentic 44 Reissue comes with a hand-painted look that looks like it came straight out of a painter's studio. Colourful drops of paint spread across the canvas upper, while subtle grease stains on the side sections and the toebox provide additional depth. The clean heel and quarter panel deliberately serve as a ‘canvas’ to direct the artistic focus forwards.

The ‘Art That Kills’ lettering on the sidewall is particularly striking - a typical Gallery Dept. detail that stands for uncompromising creativity. The whole thing is rounded off by a shiny high-gloss midsole, reinforced foxing tape elements with Osnaburg fabric from the 90s and a special rubber sole that emphasises the reissue character.

The Gallery Dept. x Vans OTW Authentic 44 ‘Canvas Paint’ will be available in stores on 27 March 2025 at a price of €150.

The sneaker will be available at selected Vans OTW retailers and online at Vans.com from the release date. Due to the exclusivity, a larger rush is to be expected.
