Words via Uprise:
“Uprise teamed up with Vans again this year to bring back the Half Cab that was received so well last year. The idea was the same: work with Vans to develop a Half Cab that had the design details that we all loved from the Half Cab that we stocked when the shop opened in 1997. We even made sure to bring back that classic Vans natural cardboard box, but with some new Uprise details.
Although made in limited numbers, the Uprise Vans Half Cab is designed to be skated and shredded.”
Design features:
– 2-piece toe construction as on 90’s Half Cab’s
