got a pair of black regular vans old schools for $25 from some bargain store. they bought out the remaining vans/nike stock from this local skateshop that closed last year and are selling it all for pretty cheap. i guess during the whole time they were selling it, two different stocks of vans were sold, so I ended up with a left shoe made in china and a right shoe made in vietnam. only difference is the width of the stitching.
