Haha! The bench was a promo thing in our stores for the last year. They told us to "discard" them. HA! It was a task getting it in my little hatchback kia, but I made it work!
The coasters I picked up at a Vans event in TN at the Journeys home office. I've only got about 6 of them. Might be my favorite thing so far.
I'm about to line up all my shoes to take a picture. I even just got back home from the Vans outlet with 4 more pairs. Wish me luck

I couldn't fit them all in one picture! But you get the idea!
Favorite pair that I searched for. Picked up the last 2 pairs (which just happened to be in my size) when auditing a store in Birmingham. Both on sale for 14 bucks... and I got my 40% off employee discount. Bummed there being re-released.
Second favorite. The whole set. Tape soles. Not the best condition, but I've never seen anybody with them. Every time I wear them I'm asked about them.

oh yeah the tape set. ive seen the white with red midsoles but never the other colors!
Yeah, they are. I was at a Journeys meeting at our home office earlier this month and saw the samples. I forgot what month they said, but they certainly are. Only the sk8 hi that I know of. The Slayer sk8 hi too.

OTWS's first "active" female. I sorta' had a feeling. Not too many grown men or boys who wear a 6.5. That's why I didn't mention it on my first response! I like seeing the amount of GR Vans you have. It's the opposite of all of us "sneaker collectors" who mainly aim at limited release stuff, or collaboration stuff. Hopefully we can expose you to our side of Vans, if you didn't already know, because you are no doubt a true Vans fanatic! It'll make it more fun for you to hunt down Syndicates in your size, just because it's a rarity for them to offer anything smaller than a 7. I'm also assuming you even care about Syndicates . Anyways, lovin' your collection!
I had a feelin you were a girl when you said you had a bunch of lo pros. Sorry to profile you lol. Love the whole shot I used to work at a Vans store and the Journeys was across the way. The guys there were a bunch of douche bags though! Dont know why I thought I'd share that but yeah... lol
I would love to have the syndicates but like you said, it's hard to find my size. I've been drooling over the maroon bones! My man wears a 13 so I'm thinking about just living out my obsession through him. He's acquired about 40 pairs in the past year of us dating. Whenever I find something cool in his size I snag em too.
Maybe you guys can help me find stuff in smaller sizes? Where do I start to look?

Here! Well, eBay is where I find most of my girl's stuff. I managed to cop her the Syndicate x W)Taps Burgundy Bones Era and Sk8-Hi. Oh, and I also got her the Primitive Half Cab that's coming out tomorrow. They produced sizes all the way down to a 6.5! But yeah, eBay is where it's at!

Very cool! Now I know what I'm looking for!
Once again, thank you for such a warm welcome!!!
