Hey guys and gals, I stumbled across this forum about a week ago and decided to introduce myself. I've been wearing exclusively Vans for about 10 years now and started to realize a few years ago that it was becoming a bit of an obsession. I currently have about 50 pairs, most of which get worn. I appreciate them so I can't not wear them haha. Luckily for me, I have enough that they never get worn out really. I've had a few for 7 plus years and only worn them once or not at all in some cases. I was going through some of them that no longer have boxes and snapped a quick pic to get this thread started, I'll be taking pics with my real camera tomorrow after my trip to IKEA for more shelving!

Re: Mattysxe
Niiice! Welcome Matt, and I'm a little envious that all of your pairs are worn! If I had enough room to create shelving or storage for all of my pairs, I would probably wear more of them. That's the downside to stacking boxes of kicks. No access!

Re: Mattysxe
yeah storage is probably the only reason some of mine dont get worn. Great stuff and hope you enjoy the forum. I say it to most everyone but be ready to start spending some more money. I'm pretty sure we all experienced an increase in purchased shoes after joining the forum. I know I did.

Re: Mattysxe
Great to see a collector rather than all the hypebeasts who only collect the supreme and syndicates. There's more to Vans than just that. Welcome to OTWS Man!

Re: Mattysxe
Thanks for the kind welcome guys! Started working on a better organizational situation for everything yesterday and am happy with how it's coming along.
Here is a quick pic of my new workspace in my bedroom/Vans vault lol
And a few pieces of signage I have collected that I plan to frame and hang. Still trying to find a Vans rug for under my desk
More updates to follow, I still need more shelving and a chair for my desk, but have an idea I'm toying with to make a chair from some of my old skate decks.
Cheers,
