Vansza: SZA’s Outdoor-Inspired Vans Collection

PR Campaign
Thursday 15th October, 2026

Vans and SZA have launched Vansza, a two-part collection blending classic skate shoes and clothing with ideas drawn from hiking, hunting and fishing. The collaboration’s hook is SZA’s personal take on outdoor-inspired workwear, including a fleece set printed to look like a worn-in jacket; a New York Fashion Week experience introduced the collection ahead of the first drop.

Why it worked: It turned a celebrity appointment into a rolling news peg by pairing “first-ever artistic director” status with a two-drop release calendar and NYFW reveal.

The lesson: Consider anchoring your pitch to a formal role change and staggered drops around a tentpole event, with a tactile, photo-friendly hero detail.

FAQs

What is this?

Every day, brands launch PR campaigns and the media covers them. We scan lots of different news sources and use AI to spot the campaigns behind the stories, and show you which ones are getting the most traction right now. Think of it as a live leaderboard of what's working in PR.

Where does the data come from?

Finchling is a news monitoring tool that analyses lots of news from across the internet.

Does this track sponsored posts, or is it earned media only?

It's built to only track earned media - we use AI to filter out anything that we think is a sponsored placement.

What does "ranked by coverage" mean?

It's ranked by the volume of coverage that talks positively about the campaign. We count the outlets covering it, then give a boost to campaigns whose coverage is positive, and those with negative coverage drop down. We're not weighting by outlet size or reach.
