Vans Vault Store

Vans' Vault division (The upper scale division of Vans) has just opened a pop up shop over at Conveyor in Fred Segal Santa Monica. If you didn't know, Vans Vault can only be purchased at finer boutique shops around the globe. One of my favorite artists, Taka Hayashi, has taken over the reigns over at Vault so you know the stuff is outstanding. Artwork and designs courtesy of Mr. Hayashi himself. Expect some great shoes coming out of this Vault!



Check the shop if you're in the west side.

Diamond Life

Diamond Supply Co.'s Nicky Diamond just released a sample pic of an upcoming shoe releasing "whenever" as a release date is not yet determined, if any. Remember the last time he posted a pic of an upcoming shoe? ("Tiffany" Nike Dunk sb's). It was an epidemic.
I don't know much about the shoe but Nick claims that it's his interpretation of Vans, Chuck Taylors and Gucci shoes all in one.

Oh, It's the Reynolds

Emerica Reynolds 3 was spotted on the cover of photography book Click. Cool! (The Reynolds 1 was one of the best skate shoes of all time btw)

Nike Dunk Hi Eric Koston?

A new pic release of Mr. Koston holding up some nice black/white/gum sole dunk hi's. The new Koston shoe or another extra $10 on top of box price? I think that's rhetorical. (Because as you know, every decent colorway Nike SB comes out with comes with a "premium" label as an excuse to charge us an extra $10).

A.D.I.D.A.S. (All Day I Dream About Skateboarding)

Check these 2 new Adidas skateboarding releases. The gazelles look like they're ready to go right out the box (no break in necessary) and the Mark Gonzales', well they'll make you ollie your cruiser board like Natas! Available at your finer skate shop.

"Where's my money Chico!"

If Chocolate Skateboards was Voltron, Chico Brenes would be the head. One of the OG-est down to earth dude on the block. He's been on the block for a hot minute now with no plans on stopping as the team captain over at the L-R-G skate team. Look out for the L-R-G skate dvd, "Where's my money Chico". In the meantime, check out his new kicks and clothing line from DVS and the L-R-G X Chico Brenes DVS kicks collabo.

Froston Gives Back

These fortunate La Puente locals got the hook up. Size 11 Nike SB's courtesy of Mr. Eric Koston. I don't think they look like size 11's?
