Vans "Glitch Checker" Pack Authentic

Vans’ California and Vault products may have been drawing most of the attention away from Vans’ in-line releases as of late, but the Cali company hasn’t lost a step in the arena that keeps them a staple on so many people’s feet.

The “Glitch Checker” Pack features three Slip-Ons and a lone Authentic as of right now. All four feature a broken checker pattern that looks very much like a two-color digital camo print. The Slip-Ons come in blue, green and white/black colorways. The final colorway is used on the Authentic.

Nom de Guerre x Converse Skidgrip First String

For the next model in the ever-growing First String line, Converse asked Nom de Guerre to collaborate on a Skidgrip low. The upper is matte black while metal eyelets, a tan liner and ribbed sole provide contrast. This silhouette is one we’ve seen a number of times, but the texture on the sole adds a nice bit of flavor to this simple design. Check for these at select First String retailers on July 30th.

Vans DD Spawn

Posted: 19 Jul 2010 11:13 AM PDT

Vans DD Spawn
It's sometimes easy to forget that basketball players aren't the only athletes that get signature shoes. While Nike makes waves for their Paul Rodriguez and Eric Koston models, Vans is looking to make a splash with the DD Spawn. Designed for pro skater Dustin Dollin, the DD Spawn packs more flair and personality than many of its peers. From the packaging to the design loudness and individuality are instilled. A Red/Black and Black/Grey colorway are set to release, both relying on heavy skate friendly padding and a midfoot strap. The Red/Black uses red suede and black perforated patent leather while the Black/Grey uses black suede and grey perforated leather. Can you see these on your feet?

Update Regarding ATF Crew x Nike Collaboration

Posted: 19 Jul 2010 10:44 AM PDT

ATF Nike Crew

Over the weekend, Air Force 1 addict Mayor revealed a photo of what many thought was an upcoming ATF x Nike collaborative effort. We have now learned the specifics about the teaser Mayor posted. The ATF Crew, consisting of DJ Clark Kent, Mayor, DJ Greg Street and All Day, are set to introduce a joint effort with Nike; however, the photo that Mayor posted was simply one of his latest, personal Bespoke creations. That said, this sneaker is NOT a part of the upcoming ATF Crew x Nike collaboration.

However, who else is ready to see what’s in store for this upcoming collaboration? We expect to see creativity at its highest level
