Craig's Mid Canvas by The Hundreds

“These are my favorite shoes in my favorite colors, purple and neon green. Everyone seems to dig them except that one homeless guy who called me “Barney” at a train station.”

–Craig Clark (craigalicio.us)

Jason's Nike Dunk SB – Skate or Die!

“I love these shoes because 1. I loved Skate Or Die NES 2. the color palette is INSANE and 3. These shoes have singlehandedly started more conversations than ALL my t-shirts combined.”

—Jason Schwartz, @jaycrimes (brightbrightgreat.com)

Jennifer's Prison Issue #23 Lo Pro

“I’ve never owned a skateboard (or been to prison), but I couldn’t resist these Vans. It’s pretty much impossible not to smile while wearing neon blue velcro shoes!”

—Jennifer Sisson (@interpunct)

Mig's Vans Sea Captain

“Meet the Vans Sea Captain, my transition into the deck shoe trend. Don’t let its affordable price fool you, comfort knows no bounds when these bamboo-laid kicks hug your feet.

You’ll find me traversing the streets of Chicago in these pups; they’re casual when they need to be—without trying too hard. On the same token, I’m not afraid to slip these on for a (slightly) more formal gathering. Networking event? Sure. Late night dance party? You know it.”
