First there's the Vans Old Skool and Sk8-Hi silhouettes, which combine unique and striking colour schemes that make you look cool and keep you warm and dry along the way.
With help from The North Face's Thermoball tech, Vans updated the classic Torrey Jacket with the synthetic PrimaLoft fill to guarantee lightweight warmth in the coolest of conditions. The Vans x TNF Torrey MTE quilted jacket is featured in three colorways – red, black and yellow, and signed off with a Vans x TNF embroidered patch on the front. In accessories, Vans reimagines the iconic The North Face Base Camp Duffle, modified for the first time ever to include a skateboard strap. The collection ranges from £95 to £190.

Oakley's new Fall line will protect your peepers even in the harshest of light
Oakley has launched its latest goggles - the Fall line - a fusion of a rimless goggle and a cylindrical lens shape that provides an unrivalled peripheral view. The Fall line also comes equipped with Prizm – a lens technology that dramatically enhances detail to improve performance and provides ultra-precise colour tuning.
Because snow environments are dominated by white and lack any particular colour Oakley have created a lens that helps riders see details earlier, faster and deeper, resulting in an enhanced experience. From bright sun to snow/overcast, there are 6 different lenses, from Prizm black iridium for bright sun to Prizm HI pink iridium for snow and low light conditions. The Fall line is priced at £180.
