They should now. With this line, Vans expanded into Foot Locker.

But still, that would be a weird market for Vans to step into with basically no experience. (unless you're looking for a super minimalist shoe, cuz I've heard of barefoot/minimalist runners running in GR Vans and Chucks, but seriously, don't try that unless you're super experienced in that realm, haha)

I'm guessing this is just an old skool that will be sold at Foot Locker and such. It looks similar to the models that were sold there last year, so perhaps they just package anything sold there in an LXVI box for brand continuity? Weird, but whatever. I like this colorway. Although, I am curious as to what the MLX means?

Edit: Actually, I think those are the old skools that were out last year. There's lots of LXVI's up on ebay right now. Outlet/Rack pickups?

Yeah, the Rack's been getting a ton of the LXVI "classics" lately. They're just weird. They have the Japan heel tabs that say Vans in big letters. The shape is a little funky. The ballistic mesh was a dope idea, and the colors are not bad at all, but Vans needs to pull these out of Foot Locker where they stand no chance of survival. They should've spent their extra earnings from the past few years on something else.

I came across a LXVI model today, that seems to have gone under the radar.. it's called the 'Iso'.
Idk if anyone has seen or tried this shoe on before, but its probably the best shoe I've seen so far from the LXVI collection (IMO). It's similar to the Graph silhouette wise, except the entire upper is made up in a mesh material (like the Roshe's). This shoe is extremely comfortable, and not bad price wise, compared to some of the other LXVI's. Anyways, I definitely recommend trying these on. I've never really been a fan of any of the LXVI shoes, but I can certainly appreciate this shoe.

I concur with Daniel on these. I bought two pairs of the blk/wht pair and maybe on my third pair soon. And a red pair as well. For the guys that truly only wear vans shoes these are the perfect shoe for those long walk trips
