Vans has partnered up with Barcelona's TWOTHIRDS for a new set of sneakers that come sporting sustainable materials.

The shoes in the collection, the Vans Sk8-Hi, Vans Slip-On, and Vans Authentic, are decorated with water-based inks and feature recycled soles on bottom, along with hangtags that explain the partners' green approach here. The materials are reflective of TWOTHIRDS' general approach that splits product lines into two categories: the RECYCLED that features recycled and recyclable items, and the ORGANIC that uses biodegradable components and organic materials.

The TWOTHIRDS x Vans collection will arrive at stockists starting on June 1, and will retail from $75 to $100.
