  • Vans is releasing a Harry Potter collaboration tomorrow, and we have all the pictures.

  • The shoe brand announced the new collection back in April with a ~mysterious~ Instagram, and wizards everywhere are predictably losing it.

Wizards and witches everywhere can finally stop waiting for the much-anticipated Vans x Harry Potter collection, because it’s dropping TOMORROW.

The brand just announced that the new merch will hit shelves this Friday, and surprise, it’s not just full of footwear. The collection-which is inspired by the four Hogwarts houses-includes backpacks, jackets, other apparel, and Vans shoes (duh).

Take a look at some of the new pics and start plotting what you’ll “accio” up for yourself.

The wait to see what kind of magic Vans is cooking up with Warner Bros. is OVER. The shoe company dropped the first sneak peek at its brand-new Harry Potter collection today, and I’m fully ready to spend all my galleons on it.

In case you somehow missed the initial announcement, the shoes are inspired by the four Hogwarts houses and each gets its own classic Vans silhouette: “a Sk8-Hi for Gryffindor, an Era for Slytherin, Authentic for Ravenclaw, and the Classic Slip-On for Hufflepuff,” according to a company press release.

TBD on a launch date, but check them out in the brand-new pic above.

What do you wear if you’re a Hogwarts-loving witch in 2019? Vans, apparently. The shoe brand announced Monday that it’s dropping a Harry Potter collection sometime in the near future, so get ready to rep your house on your feet!

While details are super under wraps (like, we-still-have-no-photos levels of under wraps), we do know that the collaboration will specifically take inspiration from the four Hogwarts houses: Gryffindor, Slytherin, Ravenclaw, and Hufflepuff (as if you needed me to clarify the houses).

If you go on the Vans site to check out what little info it’s spilling, you can sign up for a newsletter to get first word once Dumbledore or whoever finally gives the go-ahead for deets to come out. You can also mess with the pretty graphics when you move your cursor, which leaves the site looking like the four house colors underneath water, for some reason.

SHOP SOON

Do I know when this collab is launching? No! Do I know what the shoes even look like? Also no! Do I know I’m ultimately going to buy these shoes and end up rocking a pair of Hogwarts-themed Vans anyway? YES, MA’AM. They’ll look nice with Harry Potter candles and treats, and that’s really all I need to know.

Other fans are also pretty pumped about it:



That settles it, I guess. If Harry Potter were a sneaker-head, he’d wear Vans. The more you know.
