Re: Vans x Wtaps Syndicate SK8 Mid And Authentic
Which out of the 3 did you pick up?
If he still has the navy's in a 10 i will be buying them tomorrow.
I got the black pair, but i don't see them getting much use since i have so many black shoes, i will wear the navy pair though

Re: Vans x Wtaps Syndicate SK8 Mid And Authentic
That's the way it used to be, on the old site. And the reason I started the blog and forum, was because of the ISS OTW fam. I met Ceasar and a few other guys back at a DunkxChange in Fullerton about 2 years ago now, and they mentioned that they migrated over to ISS after OTWS went down. I was still steadily copping my Vans, and staying up on releases, but it was much tougher to get info. I finally decided to create an OTWS blog again, and then it just grew into a forum, after asking the ISS guys if I should do it. I even had Josh (Skorone), Andrew (Geek), Ceasar (Rase23), and Andrew (And123w) as my mods, even though you guys are barely on here, except for Skor, until he had to take a lil' vacation! I even have Carlos (Solexlife) working on a layout for the blog, which we both keep lagging on it. I can never find time to sit down and talk with him, and from the looks of things, he's pretty busy. I follow his Twitter. Chris (crisone) is also a mod now, cause he contributes a lot, and is always available to make changes if need be. This site was waiting to happen, it just needed someone to kick it in the ass, and get it moving! OTWS was missed, because it grew fuckin quick! I bought the webhosting in June. We are getting more and more visitors, and members every week. It will level off I'm sure, but I still don't believe everyone who is into Vans knows we are here. You wanna see some cool shit about the site? Here's a snap shot of our traffic that I took from my webhosting admin panel. It's broken down into overall, daily avg, and monthly totals.

G: No, do you have the number, I was looking for it earlier, but I had to go back to work, how much did you pay?
W: That would be SICK! The corporate offices are 3-4 miles from my house, I wanna slap one of those stickers onto the front door! Maybe that'll get the site noticed.

Re: Vans x Wtaps Syndicate SK8 Mid And Authentic
Hellz yes! Dude, we got a homie (theMenace) that's down to make anything! You just gotta come up with the cash, hehe. And from what I know, some peoples over at Vans already know about us, and they like what we're doing. Thank God, cause they surely could've went the other way with it, and said take down this site! You can't use our trademarks, and logos! I would hate to see it happen to us, what happened to N-SB.org. Remember when it used to be nikeskateboarding.org? Maybe that was too specific, but yeah they kinda sorta know about us. I have friends who tell me so.

It'd be sick to be limited to like 100 pairs sold to members of this forum only... haha

Re: Vans x Wtaps Syndicate SK8 Mid And Authentic
When I first got hired at Starbucks I know alot of the people that worked there used to come in and stuff, all pretty chill people, and always casually dressed. Like tees and denim and stuff. To back I didnt make any connections or anything. I did get in good with the guy that runs the LRG warehouse, Slick/Dissizit lives like 6 houses down from he, hes a pretty cool guy. I get a good amount of free stuff from my customers, even got some Lakers tickets. Too bad I missed the Vans.
Edit:
Thanks Geek, I'll call tomorrow.
