Vans Hits the Courts with Setinn To Serve Up Two Tennis Sneakers
For the first time,Vansis heading down to the tennis courts with the help of the Japanese tennis brand, Setinn.
Vans Japanhas teamed up with the seasoned sporting imprint to present its first pair of tennis sneakers: the Setinn x Vans Authentic and the Setinn x Vans Speed. Guided by the concept of 'playing tennis with skate shoes,' Vans brings its design ethos to the uncharted terrain. Both the Authentic and the Speed, for the most part, maintain their original silhouette, reworked merely with minimalistic design elements throughout.
To start, the Authentic model is simply dipped in a black-and-white grid-like print, emulating that of the tennis net. Vans' signature branded tag remains on the upper, with a Setinn stamp on the white midsole. As for the Speed, the more oversized sneaker similarly lands in an all-white colorway, accented with green branded hits landing on the tongue, heel, and outsole.
Complementing the two sneakers comes a clean capsule of apparel and accessories, including co-branded graphic tees, athletic shorts, a bandana and a tennis cap.
Peep the full Vans x Setinn footwear-fronted tennis capsule in the lookbook above and expect the range to drop for purchase on August 9. Find the full release details in the Instagram post below.

Scarlett Johansson and AC/DC are being used to scare off wolves by American farmers - and it works!
American farmers have been having a hard time dealing with wolf attacks, as the number of canis lupus has soared since they were reintroduced to Yellowstone National Park, Wyoming, in 1995. As a result, attacks on cattle and sheep have skyrocketed – with farmers finding themselves in a bind as they are forbidden to harm wolves due to their protected status. But now, a technological innovation has been deployed in the fight to prevent attacks by wolves in the rural north-west: drones. And not just any drones - Quadcopter drones equipped with speakers which blare out AC/DC and the voice of Scarlett Johansson. While the loud rock music can seem like an evident tactic to scare wolves away from cattle, the second does seem a little more incongruous... The US Department of Agriculture (USDA) has confirmed to The Wall Street Journal that people arguing is a distressing sound for wolves and so, the fight scene between Johansson and Adam Driver in the 2019 movie Marriage Story is a perfect deterrent. 'I need the wolves to respond and know that, hey, humans are bad,' the aptly-named Paul Wolf, a USDA district supervisor in Oregon, told WSJ. Harsh, as the two married protagonists in Noah Baumbach's film, Nicole and Charlie, are going through a bi-coastal divorce that pushes them to their limits. They're flawed, certainly, but hardly bad. Still, that argument is one for the ages... And a really tough watch. Still, wouldn't you know it, the music and film clips work. Since the deployment of the drones, the number of wolf attacks in Oregon has been reduced. The number of cows killed by wolves has fallen from 11 over a 20-day period to two over the next 85 days in Southern Oregon. In that case, allow us to be so bold as to recommend some other classic on-screen arguments like the Jack Nicholson-Tom Cruise back-and-forth in A Few Good Men; the Joe Pesci 'How the f*** am I funny?' bit in Goodfellas; that biting confrontation between Jesse and Celine in Richard Linklater's Before Midnight; and of course, the 'You're tearing me apart, Lisa' scene from The Room. And if Ben Kingsley's 'Yes! Yes! Yes! Yes!' eruption in Jonathan Glazer's Sexy Beast doesn't terrify the wolves, we don't know what will. Kingsley still terrifies us to this day. In other Scarlett Johansson news, the 40-year-old actress recently broke a Hollywood record by becoming Hollywood's most bankable lead performer. This follows the commercial success of her latest film Jurassic World Rebirth. The takings of the most recent instalment in the Jurassic franchise have put Johansson at the top of the list of the highest-grossing lead actors of all time, with $14.8billion (approx. €12.7bn) in box office for her films across her career in leading or ensemble roles. According to the breakdown from The Numbers, the following projects were the biggest contributors: Avengers: Endgame – $2.7 billion Avengers: Infinity War – $2 billion The Avengers - $1.5 billion Avengers: Age of Ultron - $1.4 billion Captain America: Civil War - $1.1 billion The Jungle Book - $951 million Captain America: The Winter Soldier - $714 million Sing - $631 million Iron Man 2 - $621 million Lucy - $457 million In our (less than glowing) review for Jurassic World Rebirth, we said: 'Despite Gareth Edwards excellent direction, some nifty staging of CG set pieces and a handful of spectacular sequences – chiefly the riverbed encounter with a dozing T-Rex – Jurassic World Rebirth comes off as more of a nostalgic legacyquel than a rejuvenating fresh start. (...) Jurassic World Rebirth honours the magic of Spielberg's gamechanging blockbuster but downgrades what could have been a daring revival to a passably entertaining regurgitation.' Read the full review here. Scarlett Johansson can next be seen on the big screen in the upcoming crime drama Paper Tiger by James Gray – in which she'll team up with Adam Driver once more. Hopefully their interactions will scare off more wolves. But please, less breaking of audiences' hearts. We're still recovering from that Marriage Story tiff. Solve the daily Crossword

This is the most expensive Labubu in the world — selling for 125 times its original price
They aren't playing around. A rare Labubu sold last week for a record-breaking $10,500 on eBay, making it the most expensive of the viral ugly-cute toys on the platform. The grey-brownish doll is rocking Vans streetwear — including sneakers designed by the popular skater brand, a Vans sweatshirt and a blue and orange hat reading 'The Monsters' — the series of Labubu characters it belongs to. 4 This 15 inch Labubu sold for five digits last week on eBay. This little skater monster initially came out back in 2023 as one of Pop Mart's wildly popular blind boxes, as a collaboration between the shoe brand and Labubu. Its original retail price was $85, meaning its resale value was 125 times more. Labubu has become a hot commodity on secondary markets, and experts have told Forbes they can make legitimate investments, driven by Pop Mart's limited supply model. 'Their unique look and general appeal will make them a strong market collectible for years to come,' predicted Lori Verderame, a collectible appraiser with her own show on the History Channel. Alex Fung, pop culture consignment director at Goldin Auctions, said he thinks the early Labubus are the ones that will best hold their value. 4 The Vans Labubu is one of the earlier versions, originally released in 2023. Pop Mart typically sells Labubus for $20 to $40 in 'blind boxes' — meaning buyers doesn't know which one they'll get until they open it. But it's the so-called 'secret' Labubus — the limited editions with odds of getting one in a blind box as slim as 1 in 72 or even 1 in 144 — that are flipping for thousands on resale sites. 4 This 'secret' edition of 'Catch me if you like me' recently sold for $2,000 on eBay. Pop Mart Another example is the pink 'secret' edition of the 'Catch me if you like me' doll, released in limited numbers in early 2024, which recently sold for $2,000 on eBay. Labubus sell out instantly during their weekly drops — with in-person restocking at their stores at 10 a.m. Friday, and online at 9 p.m. Thursday. 4 Release day consistently draws lineups, and sometimes fights, at Pop Mart stores. AFP via Getty Images People have lined up before dawn, describing release day as 'Labubu Hunger Games' in the UK, with Labubus sometimes pulled from stores over chaos and fighting. The creepy, toothy creatures were first designed a decade ago by Hong Kong artist Kasing Lung, who said they were inspired by Nordic mythology and supernatural folklore. He licensed his designs to Chinese company Pop Mart in 2019, who turned them into collectible plush toys. Its CEO, 38-year-old Wang Ning, saw his fortune jump from $2 billion last year to $22 billion amidst the craze, according to Forbes.
