Dane Reynolds’ new Vans

Dane Reynolds is set to drop a signature Vans shoe collection at the US Open, Huntington beach. The collection consists of a pair of hi-tops, a pair of plimsoles, and a pair of sandals (not pictured), and news of this exciting event is accompanied by a thoroughly brill press-release: “Cherished by the surf world as one of the most enigmatic freesurfer’s to roam international waters, Vans Surf team rider Dane Reynolds expresses his eccentric one of a kind personality in Vans’ latest Surf footwear collection.” By Jove, what energy! These fresh beauties are modelled on the iconic Vans Sk8-hi’s, but they certainly tip the hat to former World Badminton Champion Jack Purcell’s signature shoe. The graphics that you can see throughout the collection were penned by Mr Reynolds himself, and reflect his muse, his dog. Reports are reaching the Stab office that the pictures are in fact of Boogie, and that Pam and Truffle are devastated by this blatant, and quite public favouritism. There’s always room in a gentleman’s shoe rack for a new pair of white daps. These new DR specials are the perfect companion to a summer beach day. Slip ’em on, slip ’em off, surf, eat, repeat. Ah summer, why must you come but once a year. Hold tight sneaker fiends, they are coming.

There’s always room in a gentleman’s shoe rack for a new pair of white daps. These new DR specials are the perfect companion to a summer beach day. Slip ’em on, slip ’em off, surf, eat, repeat. Ah summer, why must you come but once a year.
