the OG disneys are nice for spring and summer but even then I can't rock prints everyday - let alone cartoon prints.
The Hi's are subdued and classy and the slips are classic california

I really only like the OG models.
I really like where this Originals series is going.
They seem to always dish out something good.

I wear 9 in authentics, eras, and chukkas. I'm pretty sure they all fit the same way. So just order your regular Vans size I guess.

Got my blue sk8-hi's in today. St. Alfred is fast!

Haven't tried 'em on yet, so I can't attest to the comfort level yet. The outside materials are great. The suede is nice and I really like the fabric used on the side panels.

However, the pleather lining is a disappointment. I can understand using a different material since the pigskin lining can rule out some customers. But why use a GR material? We're paying Vault prices still. There's gotta be some sort of awesome material they could've found, especially in keeping with the military theme. Feels like a weird, sloppy decision.

Overall, I'm happy with them of course. They look great and they're a perfect everyday shoe. Definitely will be steady in my rotation in the fall especially.
Hello, my name is Kyle and I'm addicted to Vans. I'm a size 9.5 or 10.

Looking for Supreme Disruptive Era's (any color, but especially teal), Supreme dark teal pebbled leather chukka, navy GR Zero Lo's...

Thank you so much. Got a pair for myself and a pair for my good friend. I really appreciate it!

Haha where did you get this from what he said? I don't think they have one man. It's the Vault OG insole, leather half on the heel section, and canvas on the forefoot.
Looking to buy:
.Blends Sk8 Hi in black, 8-9.5 would be accepted. If anyone here has a pair I will trade serious heat for them.
.007 Grime Slip On's (Claw, not the Skull version)
Will pay healthy prices for these. Shoot me a PM.

The linings alright. But the prices for vaults now is around $100+.

This probably has something to do with the vault "originals" series rather then just vault itself.

Man, I hate it when shops over-sell their inventory (assuming that's how they screwed you). You're a little late to the party now to try and find pairs, but understandably since you thought you had your pair(s) secured.
