Thanks for watching mate!
knits reminds me of the Nike Koston 3
Looks like a great shoe. I enjoy the first ones. They felt great for skating, running, hiking and everything I do.

Good content. Only thing that got me is Leon saying this is Ave's 2nd shoe with Vans...To my recollection this is at the very least his 6th or 7th shoe with vans. I remember regretting not getting the AV4. Then one or two models later they came out with the AVE. All his models before that were pretty basic and minimalist shoes up until his last model.

@ClckdyClck yeah I remember a few weren't even his actual designs. Remember he just took a sk8 hi, cut it down, and slapped his name in front of it? AVE sk8 low was the name or something.
My old ass is still waiting for Hoka to make a skate shoe

Do I skate in them or use them to mow the lawn?
Any suggestions for a shoe with a wide toe box? I got flippers
Great shoes 🎉

They are amazing!
Looks amazing, but when I tried them on it was so difficult to get the shoe on my foot and pressing a lot. Even when I tried one size up. Wearing vans in the past 8 years.
second pro model? This is like his 10th vans shoe , he’s been on the team for nearly 20 years

I love the way this shoe looks. I hate how all Vans look the same. Only thing I don't understand is you said it has an extra layer of suede for the first few laces for lace protection and yet I see all the laces fully exposed and not protected.

He probably just didn't like the way it looked laced under those flaps. I usually don't when shoes have that. It looks awful in my opinion.
There is rumors the knit is only "limited edition". Any word on this? I think as Van's always almost do, they would miss the "boat" if they don't continue to produce this shoe...
They look like eric koston nike sb 3
Another hit he will never use 2 weeks after launch. Got it.
Shoe looks bad ass like the look but Twisted the shit out of my foot skating his first shoe took me out for a year 😂
How do they fit? True to size?

Fr ! Yeezy meets NMD
the regular version of this shoe is on sale at shops everywhere. nike tried this knit top years ago and it didn't really work,. Price point is too high for the quality you get from vans.
Wow the $ is up there nice shoes tho
Protect your laces not your ankles 🫣
They are taking the piss with the pricing here. $130 US should be $200 here.

I wish I had some ultra kush shoes that would be coo
My feet hurt just from looking at this narrow/pointy toebox (1:14). How is any normal, healthy athlete´s foot supposed to function properly when forced into that shape? Same for Rowan, Zahba @vans
Why pay 300 on the fast times link when you go to vans official website and 130 for the exact same pair of shoes?

@@elbogran well fast times is an Australian skate shop. So the price is $300 AUD. Vans official website would show $130 USD but that equals to roughly $200 AUD and you’d have to pay for international shipping which would be around $100 AUD for a pair of shoes. But if you’re in Australia the American website will automatically direct you to the Australian website anyway. So that’s why the shoes are $300 on fast times

Vfc in general is just Nike leftovers - they trade designers back and forth constantly. If you’ve worked at Nike you’re probably at VFC now and vice versa.

Yeah these have no style, they do look very technical but they're too try hard for me. They remind me of a shoe a contest skater would wear.
Pretty sure this is AVE’s 6th or 7th shoe. You had one job Leon, one job…

Def needs a wider toe
vans that dont look like poo.... im shocked. "no vans no supra no reebok or fila....man them muthaf*s look stupid" Alim quote- razor diet hiphop album
I'm a ''minority'' living off section 8. Can I use these in smash and grabs?
🚮🚮🚮
Oh cool! A knitA didas NMD style skate shoe. This style has only been overdone and outdated since before Covid. These look terrible and AVE obviously has zero right to design shoes. Look like Sketchers
My only issue with Vans. Is that they are not longer a Skater shoe. Every soccer Mom, trendy hipster, socialite etc wears a pair in one form or another. Is nothing sacred? Keep skateboarding culture going! Its getting so washed out.
