Vans should reissue the Lampin. They've done the Epoch multiple times. Lampin reissued once only I think. Time for another.

Vans currently has 3 color ways of Lampin on their website. Not pros but all suede. I love that shoe wish there was a pro for it

The hate for this (admittedly insane looking) Adidas shoe remind me of when pics of the Gravis dylan first surfaced...

Just sayin'.

As weird as they are, the shape looks better than the matchcourt mids. Those things look like high heel boots or some shit.
Man the long board truck thing killed indy for me. I was willing to set aside the racism, but long boarding, gtfo... - DH

Vans epoch X quasi


[close]

Oh shit! I follow that Pillowheat guy on instagram and love checking out all the old Vans designs and have said several times that I would be stoked if they brought this style back. Gonna have to try and get a pair!
[close]

heavily fuck with those vans, might have to grab them and not skate them.

I've been holding out for new Crockett or Kyle Walker colorways but these might win out

I dont like the colorway but I can see myself wearing those otherwise
[close]

I saw that CW a while ago, didnt thought they would release the shoe with it, but maybe makes sense for how bold it is. I think its a good cw, (Similar to the Fairfax Palace Pro, which is sick) but its quite polarizing for sure. More toned down versions coming in the future so that might make it more appealing. The low top/laced version should be coming soon aswell, some guys from the team have been skating them in some recent clips. I havent tried a pair on feet yet but I'm curious.

Honestly, it's surprising to me that white/blue Nakel shoe appeals to any adult. And I'm not talking shit or throwing shade.

Those Vans x Quasi remind me of Tretorns:

this is the type of shoe that can only work in monochrome.  all black or all white would be fine.

of course you guys don't like them because you were all born in 1973 and they look like what science fiction would determine to be moon shoes at that time

Those Nakel joints are kind a cool tho.. Like some else said they would  work in monochrome better.. Everybody is always saying they want a hi-top slip on and when we get one everybody on slap hates it.. How the sneaker culture is today with the likes of balenciagas and so on I could see some cross market potential to them too.

These are ridiculous. They took the worst parts of shoes that didn't  work and put them on one shoe. This shoe will come out in 2 colors. This one and one that shops that cant get quickstrikes can order and then it will never be seen again. We wont wax nostalgic about it, nor will there be instagram tribute pages.
Adidas will go back to the NIKE playbook and reissue classic basketball/soccer styles and the world will once again go back to spinning on it proper access.

In fairness, a slip-on mid with a sock collar would probably skate great.

they should come with a vacuum insert so you can seal on your feet and get rid of heel slippage

I did the same thing last night, hadn’t been to a mall in 5 years and ended up seeing these as I walked past with my girl. Seems like a shameless nostalgia cash grab, I wonder if the Ollie area gets a hole worn through just from walking like the ones in the mid-late 90’s did...

Airwalk already fucked themselves with their Andy Mac Payless nonsense, they’re not coming back and this is a wasted effort. They could have wound up like Vans if they played their cards right, but that was a different time...
At least when you're a washed-out hipster douchebag in NY, you can milk it at some decent looking, hard to skate spots. In LA you're just a tan-lined faggot in a school yard somewhere.
