Lil Uzi Vert has added model to their resume, starring in Vans‘ latest Premium Old Skool campaign.

The “Just Wanna Rock” rapper showcased the brand’s iconic sneaker silhouette in true Uzi fashions, worn with on-trend baggy streetwear, maximalist jewelry and punk-esque spikey hair. The two styles spotlit for the campaign included the Premium Old Skool in Black/White and Old Skool in True White.

The musician seems like the obvious choice for the face of the campaign. They’re a bastion of experimental style, music and culture, facets that perfectly align with the Vans brand DNA. Dropped back in 1977, the Vans Old Skool quickly became a favorite following its release, standing as a symbol of skate culture and street style all around the world.

Uzi is no stranger to skate culture. Growing up in Philidelphia, a city boasting a rich skateboarding culture spanning decades, the lifestyle was bound to rub off on them. The rapper has been known to share their skateboarding escapades, posting videos of practiced and perfected kickflips on occasion. This, mixed with their love of the punk rock genre, makes Uzi a pretty perfect candidate for Vans’ Premium Old Skool campaign. Wanna get like Uzi? Here’s how to shop the beloved styles seen on the star in the campaign.
