Disclaimer: This info is late, but worth sharing. The shoes released back in September!
This is pretty awesome. Vans Asia has teamed up with Chinese skateboard company Vagabond, to promote the emerging skate culture in China. Vans is pretty good at seeking out brands that share their same values, and want to see the skate culture grow even stronger in this part of the world where there are still a lot of people that are just finding out about skateboarding. The two brands collaborated on two Pro models, the Era Pro and the Old Skool Pro. That alone right there, says they can hang with us, here at OTWS! Both shoes feature a mixture of dark tan and black colors, mirroring each other’s colors in a “night and day” contrast. Take a look at the two decks for the obvious sun and moon logos! The Era is primarily tan, with a black mid panel, while the Old Skool is primarily black, with tan accents on the jazz stripe and lining. Both Pro models, featuring all the bells and whistles a Pro model comes with! Follow Vagabond’s website, to stay up to date with what’s going on in skateboarding on the other side of the world!
