Vans has always been a brand that lives at the intersection of skate, art, and self-expression. From the start, they’ve pushed creative boundaries collaborating with musicians, artists, and cultural pioneers to make designs that don’t just look good, they mean something. So when we brought the idea of a Cardboard Vans Classic Slip-On to Steve Van Doren, he didn’t blink. He said: Let’s go to Vietnam and build it ourselves.

That’s the kind of energy this project was built on.

If you're new to the Chaos Crew, we've made a few cool things over the years, surfboards, snowboards, and probably most famously the Stratocaster with Fender. So yeah, cardboard Vans were always in sight. And with Ernest Packaging, our longtime chaos partners, and Vans, both California-born, family-run brands who don’t shy away from wild ideas, we doubled down and made it happen.

In this episode, we team up with Ernest to engineer a custom cardboard material that could actually replace fabric. Then, we travel to Vietnam, where the incredible craftspeople at Vans help us bring this vision to life, turning recycled cardboard into a fully-constructed, skateable Slip-On.

But building them was just the beginning.

To prove they’re more than just a novelty, we called in Tony Alva, Christian Hosoi, Omar Hassan, and Lizzie Armanto to put the shoes through the ultimate test. Can cardboard hold up under the feet of skateboarding royalty?

Watch the journey. See the chaos. And decide for yourself.
This is one you don’t want to miss.
