Vans and Cobra Kai have teamed up for a collection that celebrates Karate, nostalgia, and youth. With rivalries heating up in Season 5, we’ve styled classic Vans silhouettes to honor three dojos competing in the all-valley Karate Championship. Who will be your sensei?

 

Show your support for the original all-valley champions with the Vans x Cobra Kai Old Skool.  On one side of the shoe, an embroidered Cobra bares its fangs. On the opposite, Cobra Kai’s iconic motto is displayed along the sidestripe: Strike First. Strike Hard. No Mercy. This black and yellow Old Skool also features various flags printed along the outer sidewall, tying into Cobra Kai’s long history as the original dojo—and the one to beat.

 

With the Vans x Cobra Kai collection, you can choose between Cobra Kai, Eagle Fang, and Miyagi-Do Karate. Choose wisely.
