They did Skate Eras at one point, but seemingly discontinued them recently (you can probably still find some if you hunt online). They put out the Era Stub as part of the recent Dime collab, and the Curren shoe doesn’t look like it’s much different from an era.

People in the Vans thread were speculating that the Era is on ice right now to prepare a hype cycle in advance of its 50th(?) anniversary next year.

Hmm yeah, I could find an alternative, but I just really really wanna have a consistent setup. I'm sure the people of SLAP understand. Like how long are they gonna produce that Curren shoe? And if the rumours you mention are true, how long is the 50th anniversary shoe gonna be produced? Just let me pay the exact same amount at the exact same place for the exact same shoes, forever!! I thought I could depend on Vans to consistently put out the same stuff year after year hahahahaha

last resort vm001

Been skating vm001 since they came out. The first couple runs had hit and miss quality but these days they are solid. I try other shoes sometimes but keep coming back to them. The suede is nice, the rubber on the sole feels nice, and the leather in the inside of the heel never gives me blisters. Its a perfect simple shoe.

Found some pics. Sorry for them being so small and blurry but I had to deep fry them for the website to accept them as an attachment. Eras & Old Skools look a little more beefy than the Vulc counterparts but I'll be trying both out regardless.
