Vans introduce the Jeff Grosso Legends pack, featuring artwork by Jim Phillips from the Santa Cruz archives. The collaboration between Grosso and Vans was a natural, as Jeff has ridden the shoes for decades. The pack consists of a Sk8 Hi and an Old School. Both sneakers in the pack feature Jim Phillips artwork out of the Santa Cruz archives.
"Jeff’s the gnarliest wear-tester our designers have ever sat down with, bringing natural solutions to already great classics, the Sk8 Hi and the Old Skool. Improvements include – “lace saver” eyerow construction, vintage pattern details, notched heel in Sk8 Hi, dura-cap toe and ollie areas, and full-length polyurethane foam footbeds. These shoes represent Grosso’s love and respect for skateboarding."
The pack is now available at Japanese Vans stores.
