SZA is bringing her sartorial design skills to Vans with Vansza, a two-part collection that pairs skater footwear and clothing with outdoor activities like hiking, hunting and fishing. The collaboration marks her debut since becoming Vans’ first-ever artistic director last year, with the drop arriving Oct. 22, 2026, at Vans retailers and Vans.com. The “Kill Bill” singer‘s second Vansza release is scheduled for April 8, 2027.
Ahead of the launch, SZA introduced Vansza through an immersive New York Fashion Week experience in New York City on Sept. 10 and 11, offering fans a closer look at the creative vision behind the collaboration. The Drop 1 lineup includes updated classic sneakers, graphic tees, hoodies, denim hunting jackets and sweatpants, while Drop 2 will see camouflage sneakers and split-toe hiking shoes.
“This collection is really a reflection of how I live and what inspires me every day,” says SZA. “I wanted to create pieces that feel comfortable, functional, and expressive, whether you’re on a trail, in the city or discovering something new about yourself.”
Standouts From SZA’s Vansza Vans Collab
Designed around comfort, creativity and self-expression, Vansza also features details drawn from SZA’s personal wardrobe, including a fleece set printed to resemble a well-worn workwear jacket. “I love workwear but sometimes it’s just uncomfortable to move around in,” says SZA. “I made my dream workwear set but for the quintessentially cozy individual like myself lol.”
Moreover, Vans positions the Vansza Authentic Kickdown shoe as another standout in the collection for its original watercolor artwork by artist Sage Adams, featuring several fish on distressed canvas.
