Were these ever available? Lol 4PST is 7am my time but not even at that time they were available, i thought website was just waiting to have them on sale at that time, guess not.

Haha, I was randomly up at 5 as well and checked. Pretty sure they were just updating the site and putting them in the store, but since they weren't available yet, they said sold out. I've noticed Vans does that anytime they add something to the shop that isn't ready to be purchased yet.

Yeah! I had a friend call customer service a couple of minutes ago and they told her that the site is being updated, guess they will be up soon.

Anyway link was already open on my 5s, I reloaded and I was able to see the shoes, placed an order for a 9.5, I can go back to work now, sleepy as hell lol. Bad Brains next. :D

If somebody were to tell me that these would be sought after now days, I would've bought every pair I came across at The Rack a few years back. There were sooo many there!

I'm gonna put it out there and say that I actually prefer this new re-release of the Bad Brains with the yellow stitching as opposed to the black on the toe box. So stoked I managed to get someone stateside to snag a pair before they sold out.
