Feels weird after listening to that Alex Olson episode of the bunt. He made it seem like the difference in Nike pay vs Vans pay was pretty negligible. I’m pretty bummed on this for some reason. I fuck with Nike enough , but I liked him on vans. for some reason all the best dudes just kill in slip ons or authentics and it just makes them all the gnarlier. No one trips on a gnarly trick in blazers or dunks.
Maybe I’m just still in love with that vans ad Dylan had 50-50 Ollie over a pole in authentics. It’s been like a decade and I’m still psyched on that.
