Vans Vault x Brooks

If any Vans/Brooks reps are reading this, hook a homie up! My current Vans are smelling pretty ripe.

“The Era comes in really soft black premium leather, features embossed graphics on the tongue, which match the saddle, and has a dark brown leather heel tab.”

Custom TOEKEO DVS for KEO


Saw this up at Dustin’s Ziba space. Real dope kicks! Is this a part of the Cadence x DVS collabo perhaps?


Vans x Brooks

Tracko has the scoop on this awesome collaboration between Vans and Brooks. If I had to guess, I would say they are Syndicates. Vans Vault doesn’t do too many collabo’s. According to Tracko, they will also be teaming up with Filson and Pendleton for 2010; all great brands known for their long-lasting craftsmanship.

Edit: they are in fact Vans Vault. Thanks Publikhair for the details!


Cadence x DVS

“They will be in for June 2010! The shoes will be released with a limted run of T’s designed by Cadences Dustin Klein! ”

Cadence x DVS Cycling Specific Skate Shoe

DVS is proud to announce the development of its first cycling specific skate shoe. Designed in collaboration with influential cycling brand, Cadence, the Cadence X DVS Milan CTC has several bike specific performance and durability features that have never been used on a traditional skate shoe.”

The Fast Friday detail is so dope. Can’t wait to see more.

Thanks for the heads-up Dan of DNA Fixed and Pedal Consumption Patrick 

“From the beginning the goal was to create a cycling functional shoe that you can skate and walk around in all day,” says Cadence Owner Dustin Klein. “The result of our combined efforts is beyond what I had imagined.”
As a new category for DVS, The Milan CTC Cadence (Classic Tribute Cycling) has reflective detailing for nocturnal visibility, a stiffer lasting board that reduces leg fatigue and increases pedal stroke strength, and comes with specially designed patterning on the tongue that protects laces from toe cage damage. The shoe, however, functions equally as well as a skate shoe with all the skate-specific features as standard Milan CT.

Podium Distribution VP Brian Dunlap says developing a product for the cycling category was a very organic process. “I grew up racing BMX and bikes have always been a part of what I do. We wanted to go into the bike market with a shoe that we were 100% happy with. Involving Dustin and Cadence seemed like the most legit way to do it.”

The Milan CTC Cadence will be available at select skate and bike retail stores in May 2010.

If you ever wanted to get your feet in some of these fixed-gear specific shoes then now is the time to swoop. There is lightly used pair up on ebay right now, go check them out.

description:
” Only 50 pairs of this limited edition shoe designed by Adidas and Hypebeast were produced for retail sales. The shoe was designed for riding Track Bikes in the cities. Lots of 3M for visibility, a very hard sole great for Track pedals and for Ted Shredding every once in awhile and a overall sleekness for being able to put in and pull out of toe-clips regularly. You can read more about them here…

Nike Tiempo CTRS x Yorgo


These are hot fire!

“Basically the idea is to have 3M reflective material – in black – all over the shoe, apart from the swoosh, laces, and sole. So during the day the shoe is sober and black, and at night it shines brightly, and adds to your visibility when riding.”

Rebel8 x Vans

I had to get a pair of these Rebel8 x Vans chukka lows. I normally only wear Nikes, but Vans and Rebel8 slam-dunked this one.

Vans has been showing interest in the bike culture. The collabo with FixedGearLondon was genius.

Mike Giant of Rebel8 has been inspired by the bike community as well. Check out this ill new T-shirt.
