Got my VANS on and they look like sneakers [official vans threak]

$150 shipped isn't even all that crazy a price.

That's depressing to read, it means resell is the new normal.

It's almost double retail on a non-hyped and not very ltd vans release that everyone's going to forget about in a week. Unless dude got a discount, I'd be surprised if he netted more than 150 combined on those pairs (and would guess closer to 100)

Well, I mean, 80 bones + shipping + local taxes for both pairs. Sure he's making a bit off selling them at $150--isn't that the point?-- but an astronomical amount? Not really. Shortly after the first drop, there was someone selling the Olive pair for $200 + 40 dollars for shipping--or something close to those numbers--and actually making sales. That's steep. But is it wrong if people are willing to pay? No.

Those Taka Collabs are sick!! I work at the Vans store in Lynnwood, WA. It sucks we never have any way to get our hands on any Vault or Syndicate shoes. But 50% off all Vans keeps me around! haha

Those are cool i think i would have liked all black better with white lettering instead of contrasting panels.

Just hoping they still have my size come Thursday I guess. Not getting my hopes up really unless someone in NY can get 'em for me!

Edit: Now that I think of it my buddy might be able to pick them up for me. Let's see what he says.

Can anyone advise me on this?

 

Every single pair of Vans I've owned, the inside lining in the heel area wears out within ~10 days after I start wearing them. I guess the only exception I've had was the syndicates. Whether it's vault, california, or supram, I just wear out the heels ridiculously quickly.

 

1) Do I have the sizing wrong? 

2) I should just consider getting heel cup protector (sticker like things) and attach them before wearing them?
