    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.

    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.

    @@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
