Vans partners with Discovery to benefit Project CAT in time for Global Tiger Day
In honor of Global Tiger Day on July 29, Vans has partnered with Discovery to help raise money for Project CAT this summer in style. And when I say in style, I mean it!
To help raise money to increase the tiger population around the world, Vans and Discovery have partnered together to release a limited edition collection of tiger inspired apparel, footwear, and accessories. (And as someone who loves all things Vans, this might just be my favorite collaboration yet.)
According to the press release we received, this limited edition line will help capture the “wild spirit” of these large cats in a way that we can rock every single day. And there will be items for everyone, so men, women, and children can show off their love of tigers with epic footwear, cozy hoodies, and more, while also helping in conservation efforts to improve the world tiger population.
Vans and Discovery partner to raise money for Project CAT
In a statement from GVP, Standards and Social Good at Discovery, Inc, Jessica Beatus, “Project CAT, launched in 2016, is committed to conserving the world’s wild tiger population and actively seeks out collaborations with brands like Vans that share our mission, extending opportunities for consumers to show their stripes while helping our planet. Discovery’s passionate fans have also always acted as partners in this cause, and we are thrilled to give them a stylish way to support Project CAT through this line of Vans footwear and apparel.”
But you probably want to know more about the footwear and apparel.
Perhaps the most special item in the collection is the ComfyCush Sk8-Hi which gives us a photoreal image of two tigers and black and white laces that read “Protect Tigers.” Of course, there is still the iconic side stripe that we all know and love on our classic Vans. Then there is the slip on style of Vans with a wild tiger print that is only available for the kids and toddlers. These shoes give our children a fuzzy appearance with ears and everything.
Of course, it is not just the footwear we have to look forward to (even if I want a pair of Vans Tiger Sneakers!), as there are hoodies and tees as well (I’m here for the hoodies too!). Making this an all inclusive collection that we can’t resist. And the fact that it supports such a great cause is enough to have us saying yes please.
Wondering when you can get your hands on something from this collection? “The Vans x Project CAT collection will be available to shop online and at select Vans retail locations this July.”
