Vans x Bodega x Realtree Chukka

[5150marley]

yeah no problem! I thought they had a phone for the longest time and kept trying to call but it would continue to ring and not stop. so I emailed and they said they dont have a phone. and it was $55 for the lighter and $40 for the utility knife which the knife isn't as bad as I remember... but $55 for the lighter was what shocked me... the coozie was only like $2-3

If it was a Zippo lighter that sounds about right..... they always get a pretty penny for special stuff.

the reason the bag says Carhartt is because the real tree camo material is a Carhartt... and possibly the nubuck

How do yours fit? Mine fit okay, but the ankles cut in a little bit on mine. Gotta wear socks that go above the shoe on mine.

same thing on mine... the 12's are a lil big so I'm going to sell the 12 thats on its way... I'm kinda disappointed though cause there are a couple of shoe stains on both pairs

[DJGuamstyles]

That's normal on a lot of Vans, and ESPECIALLY on the limited stuff. It's like they don't do a quality control check on them. I never get glue stains and stuff, on my GR vans, but I have multiple collaboration Vans, and older Vaults, that were just plain sloppy. I don't even wanna show you guys my older Moon Eyes Sk8-hi's, those have to be my pair with the most glue marks all over them. My Bodega's have some as well. Noticed it, but let it go.

yeah I emailed them to see if I could get a different 11.5 but cant get a new 12... its not too big of a deal for me but its like your only making 150 dont you think ONE person could run through them and double check em? And your totally right GRs RARELY have any issues like that...

I know what you mean, I love the suede on my Akats, but theres some random glue on the uppers, it really takes away from the nice suede, but whatever.

Got mine today! The packaging is amazing. I also got the koozie and the zippo, great stuff.

even though we know what they look like post pics!!

Guam: how did you finally lace and tie yours? I couldnt get the green laces past the third eyelet to tie them... I like to keep the top eyelet empty but I couldnt get the green up to the fourth without chokin the shoe... and it looked really weird only going to the third eyelet.

[DJGuamstyles]

In my pics, I just tucked them in at the top eyelet. They are too short, and won't tie when laced up to the top two eyelets. I think they used Era/Authentic laces.
