Vans Introduces the Prairie Chukka to the Positive Vibe Warriors Collection

The Positive Vibe Warriors-inspired Prairie Chukka is available now.

Published: October 28, 2016 Press Release

Vans’ revered partnership with non-profit foundation Positive Vibe Warriors introduces the Prairie Chukka, the newest style in Vans’ ocean-friendly collection. The Prairie Chukka transforms the original chukka form into a stylish design, infusing an understated rubber toe cap, minimalist stitching on the heel, and deconstructed waxed canvas and suede uppers. The tailored form features a single-wrap foxtape liner and a new, lightweight molded Ultracush sockliner to provide enhanced breathability and comfort.

Taking cues from the ocean’s infinite source of creativity, the Prairie Chukka joins a line of Vans products that supports the Positive Vibe Warriors foundation’s commitment to spreading ocean awareness and water safety benefits. Together, Vans and Positive Vibe Warriors help raise funds to educate global communities on the positive impact of oceanic environments by hosting local surfing events, swim lessons, nature programs, lifeguard workshops and many more ocean-friendly activities.

The Positive Vibe Warriors-inspired Prairie Chukka is available now. Shop the entire collection at Vans.com/pvw and learn more about the foundation at www.positivevibewarriors.com.
