I think that name is dumb but I don't hate that shoe

[easymoneysniper]

i agree that's a dumb name. but the shoe looks real nice

[frontsideNECKTIE]

because the vulc Rowans aren't close enough to a half-cab, or?

the sock liner deal looks real dumb

[Cranberry Relish]

Yeah, I don't think these needed to exist.  Name is dumb.

Beatrice was skating the new AVE’s on her story. I forgot to screenshot and it’s already expired. No up close pics it was just her skating that Vans park in NY.

We got them in a couple of weeks ago, would have pulled the trigger on some but they’re just too expensive. The black ones look the better of the two, as the vans stripe is just a glorified sticker it looks cheap on the white ones.

Not sure if I like them or not.

Fit true to size for me as well.

What's the MSRP? Also, popcush or something else?

Not popcush, it’s ’ultimate Waffle’

Retail is like $130-140

Good god, they're going to get killed with this. This is the most expensive Vans skate shoe out, right?

Red chukkas look really good in person

Those are truly awful and if that’s what Vans is gonna be giving us instead of the AVE 2.0 that were already teased I’ll be severely disappointed.

[Troubadour26]

those are hilarious

These are some samples from a year ago and they were surprisingly good. The shoe has been updated since then. I don't believe these are the finished product that comes out in a few weeks.

[marcusbutler]

If vans can skatify the cruze too. I'll buy those in a heartbeat. Ave's shoe before the rapidweld bullshit was such a good looking and good skating shoe.

[beecee]

from Beatrice's twitter.. kinda looks like it has that stinky sock liner collar still

These are the finished product 😬

The AVE shoes confuse me. Why do they do this shoe for him all crazy tech but never did something like that for the boss? Also at what point did they decide to make AVEs shoes the most techy wild looking vans out there?

[douchenozzle]

Vans has officially gone in the shitter

[thehogsniper]

Why would you even release a shoe if that's what it ends up being? Like it's changed so much from the original that it's barely the same shoe. It's just a AVE with an integrated sock

[Pasta Monster]

If the AVE shoe doesn’t sell, or only sells on clearance, how long will Vans keep pumping out colorways? That shoe is already unappealing without the $130 price tag.

They better keep releasing colorways of the Rowley XLT. Whenever they stop, I’m going back to NB#.

[Musicaldeath107]

Damn I was looking forward to getting the AVE 2s from that original catalog picture.  Would have been the first new model of Vans since like the original TNT pro model WAY back in the day.  That release model is terrible.

[Curbyourenthusiasm]

I feel like what might be happening with the ave 2 is a higher priced(hopefully the 130 price tag one) that is fancy mesh, and then a more reasonable mainline version(the one in the spec picture) for hopefully somewhere in the 110 neighborhood. Pure speculation but that makes sense to me. I mean, they had those weird ultra knit mega waffle ave 1s and I am too remember them being like 120 initially.

Because AVE has been a rider for 20 years and Vans likes to have lifers on the team and Reynolds they were basically hooking up because he pursued them so hard

Especially when you consider each's relevancy these days. FA is Dill, not AVE.

Guessing contracts....sure, he rips but does he deserve a shoe for this long?

They need to re-think how they hand out shoe deals. What's Crockett done lately? Ave? Sure you keep Cab, Grosso, Rowley...but surely Lizzie's shoe has run it's course? Rowan is still selling and no one cares about Zahba colorways...especially that front shuv version...I'm curious if they do 2 versions these days and that's it (i.e., no Rowan 3 or AVE 3...tho TECHNICALLY we had the AVE, then the Rapid Weld AVE.

It's no wonder Vans is having a tough time..

Well, those look disappointing. The shoe itself doesn’t look terrible but I could do without the neon midsole and the knit collar. That model in the catalog looked slightly better. And for $130+ I will definitely not be buying those. Not sure I’d even buy them for $90. Now I’m pretty bummed I passed on a pair of $35 AVE Pros at Ross recently.

[moonordie]

those are hilarious

What is more hilarious is people still spending money on Vans
