Here's something I felt like you'd all appreciate! Here's the inspiration for the Vans Lowland 2.0 Breakers. The OG Made in the USA Vans Breakers! Now, those deep into our Vans collecting community know about these, but some of you have never even heard of 'em. Rare and obscure. Consider yourself lucky to own a pair of the new version, if you got em.Scroll to the end to see a few vids, including the original ad for the Vans Breakers, which I bought off eBay over 15 years ago and am so stoked to finally have a reason to share it.#31daysofvans #vans #vansbreakers #underthepalms #wearingwaffles #strictlywaffles #vandorenapproved #stevevandoren #breakdancing

Vans Lowland ComfyCush 2.0 "Breakers". Here they are peeps. The official pics of the shoe gifted to us by @stevevandoren for this year's 31 Days of Vans gathering at Vans HQ. To say I didn't expect these, was an understatement, but I am thoroughly excited. The Vans Breakers that these were inspired by, have been sought after by Vans collectors for decades, but unobtainable due to their rarity and high prices. Consider yourself lucky to own these if you were lucky enough to be blessed by SVD! Stay tuned for something cool I am working on in regards to these šŸ˜Ž. #vandorenapproved #vans #underthepalms #wearingwaffles #strictlywaffles

I want to give a very special and warm thank you to my lil' bro Clayton. He's got a heart of gold, and he truly loves creating connections, fostering our Vans culture, and sharing others' stories. Without him, and his genuine love for us all, we'd never have the opportunities that we've all been so fortunate to have. Real talk, cause my ass would never have the audacity to ask to reach out to @newkon and @stevevandoren . Just being honest. I'd be too worried that I'm just bothering them! Love you broski. @wearingwaffles @clayton_boone @underthepalms

Dear @stevevandoren and everyone at Vans who we owe an endless amount of thanks to, for graciously hosting us with another unforgettable 31 Days of Vans wrap-up celebration. Our friends and family still canā€™t get over the experience that they had, and they all feel like they are part of an actual Vans Family, and thatā€™s exactly what this is about. Our people. Just like the late great Paul Van Doren believed. We come from all over, and we represent every demographic and age group you can think of, and itā€™s the most beautiful thing to see, and speaks volumes about Vans. I strive to always be like SVD; authentic, inclusive, and loving. Your energy and drive is unmatched! We love you Steve. Thank you and your crew again and again!Now some words for our people. Iā€™m having a hard time putting together the perfect words, but I genuinely love you all. I do know that Iā€™m blessed beyond measure, and I THANK YOU from the bottom of my heart for supporting me. Iā€™m trying to get better at including more of you, but of course itā€™s not easy.To my family and close friends, I lean on you for strength, support, and to keep me grounded. Youā€™re my peace. Loyalty is everything to me, and my people are MY people forever. I stand on that. I LOVE YOU. -Bill
