On the 24th December, Vinyl Vandals apparel closes its doors for the foreseeable future after 18 years of production. The primary focus will continue to be music, especially in the Middle East.

The Vv team would like to thank everyone who has been involved on this incredible journey, and the plan is to one day bring the Vv apparel back and take it to another level.

This decision has nothing to do with COVID but everything to do with the progression of Vinyl Vandals and what is needed to take the brand forward, whilst supporting the needs of founder Chino aka Toyan Greaves.

Here from the man himself….

Huge sale now on until the doors close on the 24th December, get your final Vv piece today!

While stocks last…


Look back at some moments over the years!

Chino Vv - Guest Mix at The PSG x Jordan Collaboration launch in Qatar

Chino Vv (Head Dj for The Vinyl Vandals) was invited to DJ at the Paris Saint Germain store in Qatar at the Villaggio Mall Doha for the launch of the PSG x Jordan collaboration. 

Chino Vv was deep in the groove playing a mixture of Soulful Deep Afro House music, where he will be featured on PSG TV in the near future!

It was a great experience for me to work with PSG & Jordan to showcase my style as a Dj, playing the finest in Afro, Deep and Soulful House Music. I look forward to working with PSG in the future


Paris Saint-Germain and Jordan Brand just made history by announcing a partnership that sees the Parisian giants become the first football club to ever land a deal with Jordan.

The unique announcement breaks new ground for football's relationship with style, with Jordan Brand's debut collection for PSG showcasing looks that work on and off pitch. The collection includes two special edition match kits, footwear and apparel. The kits feature clean black and white colorways with red accents that will be used as the club’s third and fourth kits, exclusively in the Champions League. The goalkeeper kit comes in bold Infrared, a nod to one of Jordan Brand’s heritage colors.

Thank you to Alex Oddie for dropping by to capture the moment for Chino & The Vinyl Vandals…
