What do the red and gold waves reference? Old Famicom labels?
It's the Van's stripe but in pixel art form.

Pardon me, if i missed a link, but where exactly will they be available? Any link? Or are there different shops for different countries that will have them?
Alright, my thanks to you!
The Vans x Nintendo Classic footwear assortment kicks off with four variations of the Authentic silhouette. Travel to the Mushroom Kingdom for the first colorway, the Super Mario Bros. Tie-Dye, which showcases an all-over character print of Mario alongside several power-ups and the villainous Goomba over an 8-bit tie-dye pattern. A second color-up features the original damsel in distress, Princess Peach, awaiting rescue from her brave hero. Duck Hunt comes to life atop a digi-camo backdrop featuring the hunting dog and flying duck, and the final execution of the Authentic is an ode to Donkey Kong and incorporates imagery from its first level to present the title character in a unique floral arrangement. Vans iconic lace-free silhouette, the Classic Slip-On, appears in the sneaker lineup with graphics and quotes from The Legend of Zelda. A Sidestriped trio of the Sk8-Hi, Old Skool and Sk8-Hi Slim for women pay homage to the NES with prints and colors inspired by the console. Lace-up styles are trimmed with special details, including Nintendo game logos on the tongue label and NES controller lace caplets. For the greatest feature, kick up your heels to reveal Vans iconic waffle sole printed with Game Over!
To present a throwback-styled, head-to-toe look, the Vans x Nintendo collaboration extends into apparel and accessory items for men and women. Co-branded tees, backpacks, bags, socks and hats are offered in prints that tie back to the Classic footwear.
Vans invites the newest generation to join in on the fun with sneaker styles sized down to youth and toddler fits. Tiny tykes can get their hands on patterns designed just for kids with characters from Mario Kart and Super Mario across the Sk8-Hi Zip, Classic Slip-on and Authentic.
The Vans x Nintendo collection is available to all gamers around the world with the collection available this Friday in the US and at international retailers throughout the month. Travel through a warp zone and visit vans.com/Nintendo to shop or find a store near you.
Disgusting
Huh. Mall near me has a vans store. I'll stop by today and see if they know what the deal is, as far as retail goes. I've never owned vans before, so I'm not sure what my size is for them, either, so maybe i'll get fitted. I'm usually an 11 for most brands, but sometimes a 10 or 12.
Will this be available or only the ones on this page? http://www.vans.com/article_detail/nintendo.html
These are pretty sweet.
I've never worn Vans sneakers though. Do they run narrow? Do they expand? I've got wide feet and I wouldn't be surprised if I had to go with an online purchase to get my hands on a pair.
They run wider than most, you should be good.
Yeah Splatoon is a weird omission. Nintendo should just create legit merchandise and release them under the various Splatoon brands.
This is dope though:
They run wider than most, you should be good.
As much as I love watching everyone flagellate cluelessly about it, it's about as simple an answer as possible.
It's the Vans stripe, but in pixels.
Vans store in the mall said they have them already and will put them out Friday but couldn't tell me what they're getting or how much. Just show up at open on friday and pray.
Also made it sound like they're only getting the vans on the nintendo page: http://www.vans.com/article_detail/nintendo.html but we'll see what they actually get.
She did say no Zelda styles for women, though Only mario, i think.
More pics in linkA Vans spokesperson told Engadget that the Nintendo line will only be on sale for a short period of time. Prices are expected to range between $37 and $70 for the shoes, depending on whether you get an adult or kids' pair. They'll hit Vans' online store this Friday, along with select retail locations in various countries.
Http://vans.com/NintendoIs there a way to sign up for alerts on when these will be for sale?
A lot of them being kids only send weird. I like the slip ons but not for $80...Here's a better look at the products and guess range we could expect for the products
