A unique pair of Vans
I have issues with my feet so I am generally fairly picky with the shoes I buy and recently I have bought a couple of pairs of vans that work well for me and are pretty comfortable, I was going to buy another pair at the Local vans shop but they didn't have my size so I went onto the Vans website to see if I could order the pair I wanted, while on the site I saw you could custom design some of the models they have.
And that you could even add your own photo into the design and I knew right away which of my recent photos to try.

The Photo I used for this pair of shoes is this one taken while up the Vessel in Hudson Yards.
But let's get back to my new shoes which I have taken for one little walk to break them in a little to the Supermarket and had a couple of people ask me about them, and say they would love a pair like this.
And just this morning on the train to the city a few asked me about the shoes

Would Love your honest thoughts on them?
But I think they are awesome and how cool to have a totally unique pair of shoes

They shipped from China so I imagine they should ship anywhere I would imagine
I got so many compliments on them today and my wife loves them she is trying to talk me into ordering, well coming up with another design and ordering another pair, but I will wait a couple of months till I start wearing down one of my current shoes and get a new pair :)

Well that is one thing I dont have the oldest pair of shoes I have now are maybe ones I bought 18 Months ago, I would wear them to bits and throw them out, till a few months ago I never had more than 2 pairs of shoes and one being an older pair for wearing if walking the beaches and where it may be muddy, now I have 5 pairs that I rotate through which actually seems to be helping with my feet issue s

It is a bit more expensive to custom design this cost $90 it I think hey are worth it, Generally i only like buying shoes in store so I can check them out but i took the risk with these ones and luckily they fit well

Those are spectacular. I wore Vans all through high school. In fact, I think the original store was in my town, Torrance, CA. The "cool" thing then was to get custom shoes where the colors were flipped between the two shoes (red with blue accents on one and blue with red accents on the other). I actually went to military training with Vans and quickly got shin splints trying to run every morning in them. Great for skateboarding...not so much for running.

My granddaughter would think you were 'sic'. According to her, there is nothing more cool than a pair of Vans and the Van's store in Chicago is Paradise. And a pair of custom Vans? Wow!
Your marvelous photo works perfectly and is quite an amazing design for the shoes! You almost make me wish I wore shoes these days! 😃

Lol so Sic is the word these days one of our grandkids is using Lit which means the same I think
I am so happy with these shoes I must say

I heard lit being used a few times around here also. I like that one better than sic! I'll probably just remain old-fashioned and keep saying 'excellent' or some such thing.

OMG! How cool is that! I'm glad you choose that photo as I really like it. I wonder if they reverse the image for left and right shoe if its not symmetric ..?

Well I am biased of course but I think it is super cool I am not sure if they would do the reversing for symetric images that is a good question they do give you the option to check the left and right shoe so I must check that out
