the Vans thread...

Damn, hoping the half size down works out for me.

Probably a little bit of both they hype on them is still strong since they only restock limited amounts the more people can't get them the sooner they want them lol 

I keep hearing that the Vault fit bigger than the regular slip ons but no one has really mentioned why? With vault having the thicker cushion inside and the more narrow toe I would have assumed they fit the opposite. Also it seems like 11.5 is popular for us big footers who normally wear a 12 if the half size down from regular vans sizing holds true cause that seems to be gone as soon as I click the link. 

Anyone here know they have narrow feet and owns a pair of the OG slip on? Thats always my main worry about no tie is that the length is good but the shoe is too wide in the heel sometimes I really hate being a B width lol. 

length is too long.  I have slightly wider feet than avg, usually a 10 in almost every brand including vans.  Hell sometimes I go 10.5s in vans.  I tried a 10 and 9.5 in the og slip ons and the heel slip on them is too much.

Hmmm I should probably just order 11.5 and 12 then, I need to find somewhere that carries vault and does free shipping and free returns.

Pretty sure Century 21 Dept. stores are NY only but if you're near one u should hit it up. They have some sneaky 25 dollar Vans samples for the last few weeks. Obv sz 9 only cuz thet're samples

I'm actually going to be right by the c21 by world trade so I'll pop in. Also a size 9 . Thanks for the heads up.

Wow that's my local vans too back home.
I actually went to brea before they opened and they haven't recived them. A lot of vans stores are getting them around anahiem/orange area. They are all expecting late shipment.

 

[jfrancisco116]

Nothing in Bay Area. Said to check back tomorrow evening after they get the shipment tonight and process them shoes. Most stores said tomorrow and other stores said Thursday.

San Diego UTC location got the GC authentics in this morning. Gonna go pick up a pair now.

Edit: just picked up. Went half size down from TTS for a good fit.

They said they are really limited on stock but wouldn't give me details

 

[red81]

I called most stores and they said try tomorrow. All did said that they are expecting shipment this week.

 

[ROYGBiV]

The demand for the GC is real.

 

[9th Wonder]

3 different CNCPTS vans dropping.. cream, orange, green

Cream > .. imo

 

[makecracknotwar]

Yep cream is dope wish orange wasn't iso

Serious question, why don't people just custom a pair if they want a checkered authentic?

Personally I'd much rather have a Authentic Pro anyway for comfort, customed with checker (if my Supreme pair wears out, although I'm looking for another atm)

i think some people pointed out that the GC cost is cream versus white.

 

[ROYGBiV]

Also you pay a little more
