For this collab, Ruben Martinho wanted to bring back to light the now lost art of posters, in a world now totally ruled by digital advertising, taking inspiration from his personal collection of posters and playbills from the 90s British Raves.
Featuring a sci-fi vibe with neon colors on a black background, the collection highlights Vans’ classic checkerboard pattern, distorted in a Gabber style.
