We’re now half way through the year, and subsequently half way through the Half Cab’s 20th Anniversary, and since pretty much all of the original colorways have been released, we can now expect the more creative, and artistic models to come next.  These will all be made as Half Cab Pro models, unlike the previous releases which were all Classics, so we can expect all of the bells and whistles that all Pro models feature.  As we patiently wait for official press pics, we can at least get a closer look at a few of the artist collaborations coming out soon.  Seen here, are creations created by MoFo, Dirty Donny, and Steve Caballero himself.  Each one totally different from the rest!  Sorry we don’t have any more info at this time, but enjoy a few pics after the jump!

“Here’s a first look at one of the most consistent, and therefore more interesting, Vans collaborations seen so far:  the one with the first skate magazine in history, Skateboarder Magazine.

Introduced in 1964 as a spin-off of surf magazines of the period, Skateboarder Magazine had many ups and downs over the past 48 years but remains historically the first medium that contributed to the visibility and culture of skateboarding, especially since the mid-70s with the the first real generation of skateboarders, aka the Zephyr Team of Dogtown (who were famously sponsored by Vans).

Sharing the same era of the ’60s and Orange County, California, and many glorious memories, the team of Skateboarder Magazine and Vans have finally worked this year to build a mini-collection consisting of shoes and clothing. The shoes are three models related to the Heritage brand – the Era, the ’77 Mid Skool, and the Old Skool – replicated according to their original designs and colors, and the clothing consists of shirts, sweatshirts and accessories with the same colors as the shoes and the two logos together.

All this is part of the upcoming Fall 2012 collection from Vans, due out in late Summer and we’ll show you in detail shortly. stay tuned.”

The 20th Anniversary of the Half Cab is now in full stride.  Each month, releasing a new colorway, in a limited amount, at select Vans stores and partner accounts.  For April, the colorway chosen is Forest Green, which is a nice follow up to the white pair that came out in March.  A classic color for sure, and definitely giving off that 90’s vibe, with natural colors, and simplistic blocking.  Are these a must have?  Due out some time this week at your local Vans spot.

The Half Cab is 20 years old this year, and each month Vans is celebrating the history, by releasing all of the original colorways, as well as a few artist created versions later on in the year.  The 3rd model, following up the Butterscotch colorway for February, is the White model for March.  It’s more of a beige, or off-white colorway, but that’s how they rolled in the 90s!  This pair sits on top of the same all white vulcanized sole as the OG’s did, but they feature the commemorative “20 Years” tag on the side of the shoe.  Also like the original, these will feature a black lining and tongue as well.  These will be due out soon, at your local Vans store.
