Vans held an event in NYC this week to celebrate the launch of the collaboration
sneaker with Victoria’s Secret Supermodel
Marisa Miller. Skate companies collaborate with artist and skaters not models, this is unique but far too commercial. She looks huff and fake, not a skate chic at all. I hope this mash-up doesn't hit at Vans street authenticity. On a happier note, Vans thanked its NYC connects by gifting these skateboards designed by
Taka Hayashi to those in attendance. Check the graphic from the
Authentic LXs that Taka designed in May. teleport for pics of the kicks and a close up of the deck.
