      They looked almost new before the last Show.

          I fear it's all dirt mingled with beer & sweat.

            @Appfaff:

            So, I got a very special package in the mail today from a talented young lady out of Chicago (well she's from Cali, but goes to school with my brother in Chicago). She is the girl behind Farmtown Denim and Leather and has been honing her skills at making leather and denim goods over the past few years since my
            Little bro got her to grab a pair of raws while on vacation a few years ago.

            Stories aside, here is what I had her create for me:

            She announced that she was going to indigo dye some shoes (inspiration from Andrew of 3sixteen) and figured since the 3:16 guys did chucks, she wouldn't step on their turf, and decided to do some Vans (more of her Cali roots anyways).

            When I heard, I knew I had to get a pair of my favorite shoes of all time done - the Sk8-Hi.

            Here is the result:

            Dipped for a total of 8 times

            Love how even the "leather" and rubber areas soaked up some color (sure it will slough off very quickly)

            Better not wear these on my white carpet as the sole had some indigo stick as well
            She threw in this cool extra - might I add what cool Packaging this is - and yes, that is a hand indigo dyed strand of yarn hiding the butcher paper together:

            What was inside

            Overall, I can't believe how awesome these are -
            I'm sure other people have done this or will inevitably do this as well, but I'm happy "thinking" that I'm the only person with this super deep, super unstable 8 dip indigo dyed Vans sk8-His

            Here is a link to her etsy - and she does custom work as well http://www.etsy.com/shop/farmtowndenim#

            Are these still available?

                    Somehow that snowwhite Sk8Hi caught my eye. I know it looks awful but I can't wait to make it look as dirty as the old ones.

                      My Vans - dirty and dusty … I think, it's years ago, since I had them the last time on my feet.  😃

                              Best kicks on the planet! Back in high school I used to get these for $20 a pair, but now days I find it hard to pay $45 for them so I have to resort to wearing them into the ground!

                                  Thanks man! They are at least 3 years old maybe 4. And I wear them pretty much whenever I want.. But when they get this torn up I tend to only wear them in the summer months.

                                    Nothing better than a fresh pair of sk8-hi (paired with Loombreakers)

                                          I always have loved vans, but weirdly not most of the basic/traditional shoes one me. While they looked classic and fresh, just couldn't rock em. I always found a pair I could rock though, Rowleys way back when, AVE, and now Vans is pushing out some seriously good kicks. MTE specifically, but just got in my new Bedfords on discount and couldn't be happier 🙂

                                          Got two more very well discounted Sk8 Hi shoes coming in next week…I was weak for them.
