I've always seen vans as more of a "fashion over function" type shoe brand. Yeah they've got a few solid models, but the ones most worn by skaters (era's, slip-ons, etc) don't even seem o be made for skating. Other than overated boardfeel, their durability is sub-par & they really don't protect your feet at all. Most skateboarders see to give Vans a pass for everything tho so whatever
I heard he's a Zionist.
People don't buy Vans for the quality, they buy them because they like the way the look and how they feel (paper thin).It's not a secret that they suck and it isn't worth discussing. If the lightbulb FINALLY came on for you guys then you are on some SLOTH shit and need to move forward!When you build shoes with weak materials and little to no reinforcement they are bound to fall apart!Fuck VANS
Vulc shoes suck.
Fuck every single one of you guys. Vans feel the best and look the best. Era Pros are the best shoes I've ever skated.

so i've seen threads about vans going downhill, adidas going downhill, and nike going downhill. who's gonna step up? dekline where you at??

... But yeah, I haven't touched Vans since I noticed the soles becoming so concave that the only part touching the board is where the vulc wrap meets the waffle part.
i got upset with vans after how good the first batch of era pros were when they first came out and how the got progressively worse after that.
While were on the subject of cheap shoes Adidas has forsure gone down in quality. The insoles are total shit that they provide with the shoe. Has anyone looked at the original busenitz insole vs. the new one? Definitely selling cheap products for higher prices.
I dont recall ever putting on anything Southpole in my life.
