A Night in New York with Little Simz and Vans On the occasion of the launch of its newest version of the Knu Skool, Vans has conquered the Big Apple

Arriving for the first time in a city like New York is a bit like daydreaming. A city full of lights, chaotic and eclectic, where it is impossible to get bored and where you spend most of your time looking upward. Impossible to attempt to draw comparisons with any other city, New York is a forward-looking metropolis that never sleeps. That may be one of the reasons why, to present its new Knu Stack, Vans chose the American city itself, organizing an event that combined fashion and music.

Just as Vans' shoes represent a true nostalgic look at footwear-of which the Knu Skools are just the latest example, Little Simz's music in its sounds also winks at the past, as evidenced by his grime mixed with reggae, blues, and R&B jazz. A collaboration that was not limited to just the concert at Baby's All Right, but literally invaded New York with billboards and murals between Brooklyn, Times Square, and other city hubs. It was an experience hard to forget, a journey in the company of one of the best voices of recent years in a setting as unique as New York City.
