I blame Jeff Kutter.

Are you reading this, Jeff? What the fuck, man?

(For the record, I have had absolutely no contact with Jeff Kutter whatsoever.)

isn’t a campus without stripes in white just a stan smith?

In theory maybe but no not really at all. Campus has a different (and better) shape, and a different (and better) sole. So I guess similar idea, but not the same shoe at all. Bummer about the off white soles on those because I would be VERY down for an all white leather Campus (ADV or OG) with no stripes. Pretty perfect shoe actually.

As for those Carroll reissues, you can't really expect BOS to do a mellow colour with nothing on it, that's not their brand. I think the look fucking terrible and I wouldn't wear them either, but the real crime not making an OG colourway Carroll on the side, which hopefully happens but I haven't seen in any upcoming catalogs or anything.

Our shop got the BOS ones and it actually bums me out even more on the colour because the shoe itself is actually really dope. If anyone is thinking about getting them anyway, they fit a bit big and if I got them I would half size down.

boys of summer carrolls, they botched the hell out of these things. the boys of summer text on the sole can be scraped off but atiba & ako signature on the tongue is too much, couldn’t do it

Clear sole is a weird choice

Why does vans think people want text on their soles?   Is it just because they can?

Just give us one normal non collab model of this damn shoe

Agreed, this shoe is soo cool, a few basic colourways of this model would be amazing!

Lee Smith is wearing an OG version/colorway here.
The real OG's would be too old to wear right now right?

Maybe they're reissues that will come out? They obviously had new molds made at Vans.

I'm probably very wrong and getting my hopes up, but we can only hope right?

Edit:
The episodes were made for Vans TV.

He's wearing an OG version in an OG colorway.

Seems like the last boys of summer collab was on sale on a lot of sites. Hope that these go on sale too because who wants crap written all over the shoe. Can always spray paint too.

Do younger skaters even care who Mike C is or are we just old and have a huge boner for those shoes

Anyway. I want to satisfy my boner since seeing the supreme ones way back

Vans stop fucking around and make a chukka boot and Mike C shoes

nothing's been the since same

Not coming at you bro but why'd you bother to comment then?

There's definitely wearable OGs out there. Some the rubber stiffens up to be rock hard, but you can find ones that are still wearable. I'm guessing those are OG but I hope I'm wrong and that colour comes out sometime in the future.

the ones in the video look brand new so he either got a pristine example of an original pair or they are coming back. I wonder if vans is also going to make the chukka for the skate line normally, they did the sneeze ones recently but they could just be one offs

Text on any available space is basically Boys of Summer whole MO.  I also think it's cool that Jeff will put his friends' name on these shoes.

Personally won't be buying the shoes, but am looking forward to seeing the video, and hopefully Rowan skating in them.

You're right. I had some OG 1985 jordans and they were still wearable (stiff collars though). If you store shoes correctly they'll most likely have an extended life. And I'm guessing VANS has the knowledge to do so :-)

I did some searching and I found out that a DS pair of the exact same colorway has sold on grail:
https://www.grailed.com/listings/10840498-vans-mark-carroll-original-pro-model-vans-1994

Maybe those are the ones Lee is wearing?

Anyway, thanks for a constructive answer instead of dropping f-bombs for no reason.

I always liked the “formal sneaker” version Tony Ferguson’s company made.   Too expensive for something I think I would never want to wear because it was too expensive

Yeah I can't imagine anyone out there who would want Atiba and Ako name's on their shoe tongues and writing all over the foxing tape. Seems like a real waste of an otherwise lovely looking colorway.

You guys can use nail polish remover to get rid of the letters on the sole.
I bought those Baker Slip on pros for 20 euros, and used nail polish remover and removed the letters in 2 minutes.

I don't care about the names on the tongue no one really reads those. If the letters on the sole can be removed that easily and aren't embossed into the sole I would cop.

They aren't embossed. I was gonna do the same thing but the clear sole throws me off.

Yeah I recently got some Airwalk Jason Lees and they're totally wearable. Cupsole is more likely to be wearable than vulc, but that dude Pillowheat sells tons of vintage Vans, including Carrolls that are wearable.

Didn’t madfoot do the caroll at some point?

I forgot about the Mad Carrolls!

AVE Classic High was the best fucking shoe.  The checkered ones are my favorite shoe of all time and I would buy 2-3 pairs if they dropped them again

I found a pair of what looked like very early samples of those at good will with FA print instead of the hockey even and I’m still so pissed I didn’t just buy em that day.

I really thought these were going to be more limited.
Swooped up the Carroll from the BoS site and my go to online store has them and is faster at shipping.
