Question: whatโs better than an Aussie icon? Two Aussie icons, of course. And two Aussie icons for the price of a single collaboration is exactly what youโll get with the special edition sneakers from Victoria Bitter and Volley โ made for hard-working Aussies to slip on as soon as the old work boots come off.
As some of you may recall, the entire concept of the VB x Volley sneaker โ appropriately dubbed โThe Ultimate Shoeyโ โ originated as an April Foolโs joke earlier this year. Taking a page out of Elon Muskโs playbook, due to the overwhelming response, Victoria Bitter and Volley decided to turn the visual punchline into something you can actually wear during silly season and beyond.

Based on Volleyโs Heritage High silhouette โ a revised iteration of the 1982 Volley High Leap โ the VB x Volley sneaker features a durable ribbed canvas upper, custom metal eyelets, and original Volley rubber sole. Proudly sporting the VB colours, VB logo + slogan, as well as the signature of VBโs founder Thomas Aitkenโฆ for a hard-earned summer break, thereโs only one shoe that can handle this yearโs sesh.
โWhen we saw the popularity of the [April Foolโs post], we felt this was a good opportunity to offer something different to our drinkers,โ says Hayden Turner, Victoria Bitterโs Marketing Director.
โWe hope they love it as much as we do.โ
