Anyone know when those vegan Last Resort AB models are going to be available for purchase in U.S.?

I'm holding off from buying any shoes right now until those are available. I sure hope there's gonna be a size 13.

everybody says they fit pretty big, so maybe you could fit well in a 12. pretty much everyone seems to have to size down a half or even whole size in last resort.

Months ago they said "early April" and the LRAB and Sami's instagrams have been teasing images of boxes in the warehouse ready to go, so should be any day now...

I know Nike isn't so popular in this thread, but since they're SBs and vegan, I'll update here that a few new colors of the blazer courts are up on the site.

Someone got the jump on those white new vegan eS and it looks like there is a new accel slim colorway, hopefully synth!

Impish sausage is definitely gonna blow up as a euphemism this year

Back in March New Balance's instagram said they'd have another 420 coming in April, but judging by all the port delays it looks like those are being pushed

In the mean time, I went on a serious hunt for some more of these and found that using the google image search was one of the best ways to track them down. Next to the image it'll actually say if it's in stock and have a link to where to buy it. Was able to get some old stock that was heavily discounted

Lately been riding canvas half cabs I got of ebay and I don't understand why vans doesn't put these out regularly. Who's their tm? Seems like a canvas cab would be a great seller

Please can you put the link of the IG post of these 420 (or directly a pic) ? I went on their IG and couldn't find the post.
Where did you find some old 420 ?

You’re right. The canvas joints are just as well built but lack the “pro” insole. I think most companies blown it by not having a straight up black canvas kick. Pretty bad when the vans site itself doesn’t carry a full canvas option.

If you search 14oz canvas half cans you can find plenty on the cheap. Vans had a discount site somewhere on the web where I got mine from. Slap the old insoles in and wait on companies to catch up.

Does anyone know of an all-black canvas and rubber (or synth) mid- or high-top skate shoe? I have the monochrome canvas CTAS Pro Hi but would love to try something else.

I’m sure rothdigga can give more info in the nb thread, but I commented on the nb ig account asking if there would be any more 420s and they said April

I don’t know what size you wear or where you’re located, but try google image and see

Was able to find some at chane.com and some random skate shops

You should be able to order custom vans sk8 hi, the vans stripe would have to be sparkly though.
No.

I just commented on the VansSkate instagram the other day asking if we'll ever get a non-leather non-glitter jazz stripe option in the customizer.  One can dream!

Ok, thanks @culdesac !

I just commented the new IG publication of NBNumeric asking them when the new 420 will be available, they answer "7/10", so we'll have to be patient...

I'd be happy with a "no stripe" option, but we know that can't happen.

Do they really use a leather side stripe on these?

Currently they do. They used to make a vegan version of these as well as the old skools. they were all black canvas with black canvas stripe. Same time they made the canvas half cabs. Not sure why they won't make those anymore.
No.

I just talked to someone at Vans and they told me that the black glitter and blue iridescent stripes listed as textile are actually made of leather too. So I guess there are no vegan sk8 hi's, even with ugly stripes.
No.

I like the look of those new frankys. I think my days of skating in low shoes are probably over, but I would wear those as everyday shoes.
No.

Anyone know when those vegan Last Resort AB models are going to be available for purchase in U.S.?

I'm holding off from buying any shoes right now until those are available. I sure hope there's gonna be a size 13.

I asked Pontus the other day and he said yes to 13 and soon.
ok thanks

there were some other canvas lows that were shown a while back, I remember a pine green and a blue one, but also those kinda stopped being teased and only the blue highs have since been shown as "the vegan" one.  I hope the lows didn't get dropped!  definitely interested in the lows more than the highs.

White states or white NB#, I usually can’t rock white but the NBs look a tad more durable

Those State Bushwicks just remind me of some 2nd-rate H&M-style chuck ripoffs, and lo and behold https://www2.hm.com/en_us/productpage.0956106004.html
Go with the NBs
