So, you didn’t think we were going to forget about all you LA natives, did you?  Well, here it is.  The one that some of you were probably hoping for.  I was fortunate enough to tag along to last night’s Dodger game with my boy, and he surprised me, and totally spoiled my ass with Dugout Club seats.  We sat 4th row behind the Dodger dugout, and you know I took the opportunity to take some pics of the tee and hat.  Sorry, I’m not the best model, but that’s okay, because you’ll make it look way more dope when you get yours.  I also took some shots, trying to capture the vibes of our Vans sneaker culture, by incorporating some of the dopest Dodger Vans in the game.  Peep the gallery below!

This one will come in a black colorway, featuring Billy Bulldog in his classic look, decked out in all blue, with his classic hot pink shades, and his favorite team’s ball cap.  This one matches perfectly with the snapback, and we think most of you will want both, so we will be offering up an “I Love LA” pack, which will include the tee and hat, and a bonus UTP Sticker-Pak (for the first 30 or so to order).  Pre-orders will open up sometime Friday evening.  I repeat, this is a pre-order, so we will make enough for everyone, but once it’s over, that’s it.  We won’t remake this one.  We appreciate all of you for putting up with us! – Bill

Here’s the official first look at our @underthepalms x @lazywork “Play Ball” capsule collection.  I got my nephews Ray & Damien to help us bring the vision full circle.  Both of them are beasts on the field, and they brought the authenticity that we always represent.  This is a big moment for UTP, as this is the first time I’ve actually gone as far as to create an entire campaign, including a lookbook, and I’m stoked to have my fam involved through it all!  Their mothers might be willing to work with y’all if you need them for any work lol.  Thank you broskis!

#lazywork #underthepalms #playball

Enjoy the lookbook, and stay tuned for when the pre-orders will open up!

VaultbyVans_VP_KITH_1__96656

As part of KITH’s ongoing “Love Thy Community” initiative, they’ve partnered up with Jamaica, Queens, NY’s VP Records, and Vans Vault, to create this OG Authentic LX.  Inspired by VP Records’ signature record sleeve designs, these are perfect to add to your collection of band and music related Vans.  The shoe features a custom printed canvas, as well as custom embroidery on the rear section of the shoe.  More custom prints can be found on the footbed, and the Vans flag has been customized on the back side as well.  There’s also a t-shirt available with this collection.

The shoes are now available over on the VP Records webstore for $80.

Here’s some words via KITH in regards to VP Records:

“We’re thrilled to introduce VP Records as our latest partner in the Love Thy Community program. Since its establishment in 1979 in Jamaica, Queens, VP Records has stood at the forefront of the reggae music industry.

Co-owners Vincent and Patricia Chin, both hailing from Kingston, Jamaica, united through their shared passion for music. Originally launching their venture in Kingston, they opened a store and production facility in the late 1950s and early 1960s. In the midst of the politically turbulent 1970s, Patricia and Vincent relocated to Jamaica, Queens, NY, and embarked on rebuilding their business from the ground up.

Since its inception in 1979, VP Records has garnered remarkable achievements, including being honored as the “Best Independent Record Label,” releasing albums that have garnered awards and nominations, and representing some of the most prominent figures in the reggae music scene.

At its core, VP Records remains deeply rooted in its community and boasts a strong family-driven ethos. Patricia, and her grandchildren CJ, Stephen, and Stephanie, actively guide day-to-day operations. We’re thrilled to shine a spotlight on them and their inspiring journey.”

info via Hypebeast:

“Partnering up for the first time, Vans and Malaysian streetwear label Futuremade Studio (FTMD.) are gearing up to launch their first footwear collaboration.

The collaboration sees two classic Vans silhouettes, notably the Sk8-Low and the Half Cab reimagined in a suede build and a retro-inspired color palette. Uniting both brands’ shared penchant for crafting wearable and versatile footwear, both models are designed to be worn every day, whether it’s at the skate park, on the dance floor, to the local cafe or for running errands.

The Sk8-love features a brown main body and an orange vinyl collar, along with shoelaces in an off-white or a matching brown color. Its off-white bumper and friction are accentuated with a bright blue foxing stripe, while the outsoles are emblazoned with FTMD. lettering against a red base.

Elsewhere, the Half Cab arrives in a sandy beige colorway made up of two different types of suede, offering a layering effect. The beige body is highlighted with hues of orange, spotted on the vinyl collars, foxing stripes, and heel counter stitching. The waffle translucent outsoles on this pair are outfitted with a complementing orange base, which is paired with white FTMD. logos for a bold and contrasting finish.

On August 10, the collection will be released in advance at FTMD. with every pair coming in a limited-edition shoebox. Starting August 17, the collaborative shoes will also be available in a normal edition shoebox, via regional Vans’ websites.

Drawing inspiration from French court footwear, JJJJound and Vans have designed three versions of the classic Vans models, making them a convenient option to integrate into a more subtle uniform. By focusing on the hospitality workers, the two brands come together to showcase and celebrate the remarkable and stylish individuals who diligently work at esteemed restaurants in the vibrant city of Montreal. Through this initiative, JJJJound seeks to shine a spotlight on the exceptional individuals and hope to inspire a greater recognition of the human element within the hospitality industry and promote a culture of respect and gratitude towards all those involved.

 

JJJJound x Vault by Vans – Authentic VLT LX ($105)

Originally called the Vans #44, the Authentic became a cult classic for skaters in the 1970’s. We re-interpreted this model with a softer material composed of fine organic cotton seen throughout the collection.

JJJJound x Vault by Vans – Classic Slip-On VLT LX ($100)

JJJJound has reconfigured it to have the same organic cotton while removing the material backing to give it an unstructured silhouette.

Details

The minimal branding consists of our signature woven beige label re-worked to be dual
branded. Features off white elastic and off tone sole unit.

The minimal branding consists of JJJJound’s signature woven beige label on the right shoe. The silhouette features an white organic cotton and suede upper, full suede Sidestripe, leather lining and an off-tone sole unit matching the other two models.

Vans Vault x NOAH – Patchwork Sk8-Hi LX (7.27.23)

Jul 27 23 under Collaborations, Vault | Comments Off on Vans Vault x NOAH – Patchwork Sk8-Hi LX (7.27.23)

NOAHPatchworkSk8-Hi1

Vans Vault and NOAH are back with a new set of Vans Vaults for us.  This time, choosing a Sk8-Hi, and constructing it in suede and 100% cotton corduroy, in a patchwork sort of fashion.  Available in two colorways, Brown or Blue.  These are Vaults, but the heel plate is throwing us off, because at first glance you think it’s just a GR silo, but then you see that it’s actually an embossed version, but not the one we currently see on all VLT Vaults.  Just another reason to cop these limited Sk8-Hi’s that are just way too clean to pass up.

Available exclusively on the NOAH site for $128 each.
