Words via Blends:

“Following the 2013 release of our Black SK8 Hi, and our Old Skool earlier this year we at Blends have teamed up once again with Vans Vault for a special edition Vans Vault SK8 Hi in a new Vans color – Chili Pepper. This is once again a premium take on the Iconic OG Sk8 Hi with a new never before used extra supple buttery leather. The shoe will once again feature a zippered closure at the heel and a bone-patterned Jazz Stripe branding across the upper. Extremely limited the BLENDS x Vans Vault Sk8-Hi Zip LX will be available this Saturday, December 6th online at Blendsus.com and in-store at our BLENDS’ Los Angeles, Costa Mesa, San Diego and Santa Ana locations.”

These look pretty awesome. I think I like them more than the black pairs, which is good since those are 99% unobtainable to me now. haha At least I'll have a chance with these! (maybe) haha

I like! any idea what the price is gonna be on these?

I'm lucky I got the black pair of Sk8-Hi's for a good price not long ago, I couldn't get the Old Skool :(

I haven't heard anything on pricing, but that line in there about "new never before used extra supple buttery leather" could mean they're charging more.

Unsuccessful. Looks like I'll be paying reseller prices.

Rumor is 100 online and about 25 in each of the 4 stores, but I think more were made. I'd say between 250-300

What's with the rumors of orange/timberland looking samples of these? Are they talking about tan suede or something? Sounds awful. haha
