Mac Miller is a beloved artist who passed away entirely too soon. Overall, fans are still mourning him and it is easy to understand why. He remains an integral part of a lot of people's formative years, and his art will live on forever. In fact, today marks the 5th anniversary of his incredible album, Swimming. This is considered to be his best work, and to this day, people are still talking about it. Although it wasn't fully appreciated when it came out, it remains an undeniable body of work.
With Swimming turning five years old today, Vans has decided to come out with an amazing collaboration. This new sneaker is going to pay homage to Mac Miller, as well as the album itself. As you can see in an official image below, this shoe is a Vans Authentic. This is an iconic yet simple silhouette that plenty of consumers have enjoyed over the years.

As far as the colorway is concerned, there are some cool elements at play here. The shoe is mostly your basic black-and-white aesthetic. However, the toe box has a Yin and Yang symbol. Moreover, the midsole has the phrase "Mac Miller 1992 Til Infinity" repeated throughout. It is a nice little homage to the artist, and as far as it being a collector's item, these are perfect.
