Created in time for the US Open of Surfing, which the skateboard and surf-inspired retail giant appropriately sponsors, the collection has five new shoe designs. There is one slip-on shoe, one ‘Old Skool’ style, a ‘Sk8-Hi’ model and two ‘Authentics.’ Each of these shoes are adorned with either the classic black and white checkers that are one of Vans’ signature designs, or images of California palm trees against a multi-hued backdrop that is presumably a sunset. Er like the new collection of the legendary brand Vans.
