The new collection of sneakers, slides and apparel drops on Friday June 17

Beloved anime Sailor Moon is celebrating its 30th anniversary this year and there’s a slew of celebrations lined up for the occasion. Aside from the Sailor Moon Museum opening in Tokyo this July, the mega franchise is teaming up with Vans to release a special collection of sneakers and apparel on Friday June 17. 

The collection offers a colourful take on Vans’ classic canvas sneakers, such as these platform Sk8-Hi high tops featuring Sailor Moon's transformation brooch and ribbon.

There’s even a comfy pair of slides featuring your favourite Sailor Guardians. These are ideal for the summer or even as house slippers.

Vans’ iconic Old Skool sneakers also get a Sailor Moon upgrade while still maintaining the brand’s signature black and white checkerboard pattern.

There's a total of eight adult shoe designs priced between ¥6,600 and ¥15,950 as well as ten kids designs (pictured above) priced between ¥4,950 and ¥7,700.

Aside from shoes, the collection also features apparel and accessories, including a crew-neck fleece top inspired by Sailor Moon's outfit as well as a Luna backpack and beanie complete with cat ears. 

The Vans x Sailor Moon collection will be available in Japan from June 17 at Vans stores as well as ABC Mart and the ABC Mart Grand Stage online store .
