Vans X BEAMS
Except that weak-ass rubber I say it's a great collab! Too bad it's a japan release.

Re: Vans X BEAMS
Such a cool concept. Vans Japan really embraces that California culture, man.

I have to agree with Billy.

Re: Vans X BEAMS
Definitely awesome. But the rubber is too inferior for the concept. I have noticed that they embrace te Cali culture, which is sweet. I wish they didn't do it exclusively in Japan though. Sort of doesn't make sense.
Looking to buy:
.Blends Sk8 Hi in black, 8-9.5 would be accepted. If anyone here has a pair I will trade serious heat for them.
.007 Grime Slip On's (Claw, not the Skull version)
Will pay healthy prices for these. Shoot me a PM.

Re: Vans X BEAMS
It is kind of shitty how Japan gets their own branch of Vans line. Where Vault, Syndicate and California are worldwide.
Edit: Price conversions comes out to about $88.40 + proxy/shipping fees for those seriously interested.

Also, why didn't they make the toe pointier? That would have sold me.

Re: Vans X BEAMS
Not that Japan releases come in my size anyway, but... really?
I get that it's kind of neat they're reproducing the vintage vans, but come on... you talk about how the details on these are great, and I'm just not seeing it. Maybe I'm spoiled by what went into the primitive HCs, but I've gotta say, back to back, I'm not quite as floored as some.
It's cool to be able to beat the vintage style with less worry, but I dunno. I'd get some GRs before these, especially the black ones.
