3 colors curren shoe $41 on vans

[close]

picked up the brown colorway. Hoping theyre comfortable. I'd prefer to figure a way to get the text off the tongue.

Isn’t a sewn on piece?   Seems easy to pop off

the brown ones appear to have the tongue graphic screened on

[BALARGUE]

yes

[Atiba Applebum]

Oh wild.  Just noticed the atiba colorway has a completely different shape of panel as well.

On the Half Cab or the Curren? I'm not seeing any paneling differences for either

the tongue has a panel on the green curren's shown in the link previously, but all the other curren shoes dont have an added panel on the tongue, just screened on text.

[Atiba Applebum]

 Incorrect.  In fact, I think the above photo is an older photo.   Every current I’ve seen looks like this

I see it now! Some colorways have a tongue tab label stitched on and others don't. Don't think there's a rhyme or reason to that at a glance

the ones i ordered from the vans site have the photo with the screened tongue (referenced older photo). Maybe they changed and they're dumping old ones. Hopefully it's just a photo error and I can get the ones with the panel to remove.

The ones I’ve seen in person all have the panel too.   If not, I think the laces will cover enough for you

[Atiba Applebum]

Anyone tried Safe Lows before (the kinda Carroll/Halfcab low shoe).   Seeing some great color ways coming out

It’s one of those shoes with the Lycra stuff.
I went half a size up because it was what was available.
They do feel great, it’s kind of a bummer they’re on a vulc sole with all the padding.

Is that the bootie liner?   Curious what it’s functionality is…vans aren’t roomy to begin with

Got a $40 pair.  With laces tied all you see is the vans logo on the tongue.   Debating on removing panel, will let you know if I do

[Eddy Mitchel]

Over for me.Got my last pair of Half Cabs.After three weaks of moderate skating the heel cups are broken at the lower part making the shoe colapse and tip of outsole comes unstuck...

[Cranberry Relish]

Edit* My bad, these were released in 2023.

@Atiba Applebum / @finecojeffe
sorry for the wrong photo, but it was used on the Vans B2B platform.
I actually sold a pair to a friend (without caring about this detail) and his have the sewn on patch

all good, its the same photo that is on vans official site too so I figured it was accurate.

Any other Curren owners feel like the laces are too short… At least on the brown ones?

I got black ones (with while sole, OF COURSE) and the length of the laces is alright (unlike every single pair of Skate Half Cabs I've had these last 3 years).
Only wore them at work for 3 days, gonna start skating in them sometime soon. Pretty comfy so far.

 I hope the AV classics are coming back out, been seeing him and Diego wear them a lot lately

I do too, but hope that they don’t fuck them up by adding a sidestripe or something like they did with the sk8-lows…

Missing the black oiled suedes that I had a few pairs of…

Picked up a set if the new wafflecup half cabs. I’ve only worn them around the house so far but they feel really nice and supportive. The sole feels more narrow than the vulc and feels like it will have a quick break in period. The vulcs had a much stiffer sole and took like two weeks to feel broken in for me. Pretty stoked on them so far and will report back as soon as I skate them

[franc]

Am I the only person on here thinking that those new Wafflecup Half Cabs look absolutely horrible?

+1, saw them in person and it only confirmed my feelings
