2012 marks the 20th anniversary of the greatest skate shoe of all time, the Vans Half Cab. In celebration of this occasion and skateboarders’ knack for challenging the status quo and making their voices heard, Vans will be dropping one new and exclusive limited edition 20th Anniversary Half Cab colorway every month throughout the course of the year. Beginning in January, Vans and Supreme take us back to where it all started with a limited edition (20 pairs worldwide!) hand-cut and duct-taped Vans Caballero high top. Each pair individually cut, numbered and signed by Cab himself and available exclusively at select Supreme Stores worldwide while supplies last.

I’m just going to use what DQM wrote because it sums up this collaboration nicely.

Skateboarding is spontaneity. There is no set schedule. There is no two week notice. It’s everyday at anytime of the day. It’s all night long or it’s not at all. It’s a phone call from a friend or a chance run in on the street. It’s here one moment and the next it never existed. DQM and Girl Skateboards have come together to provide you with clean, no bull shit staples to get you from one session to the next and whatever may lay in between. The perfect shape, a pocket tee and cover from the sun. Everyday things you shouldn’t have to think about, and now you don’t. Available in store and online July 1st.

Make sure to mark July 1st on your calendars because these are sure to move quickly!
