After the Vans x Board Co. collaboration that we presented, here is another exciting collaboration to hit stores Fall 2007. Vans got together with Thrasher.
Thrasher was founded in 1981 and for over 25 years has been committed to documenting the culture of hardcore skateboarding in an objective and raw format, made by skaters for skaters. Thrasher started The Skater of the Year Awards in 1990. Each year the SOTY award has honored the skateboarder who killed it that year and best represented the ideals of Thrasher, and it’s a list of legends. Three of Vans’s current pro riders have taken home the award-John Cardiel, Geoff Rowley and Tony Trujillo. The Vans Thrasher SOTY pack offers a customized version of each rider’s pro shoe, two all-over print tee shirts and two trucker hats. There is a TNT III Slip-On, Squares and Old School in the collection. This collaboration represents the love of skateboarding, and the contributions that have been made by Thrasher, these three riders and all the past and future SOTYs..

We already showed you the blue colorway of the DVS x Diamond Supply Co. Jeron Wilson, here now a preview of the green colorway. The blue colorway will finally release this fall and the green one that you see here will be coming Spring 2008. Again there is the matching New Era cap coming along. Via C To The JL.

This fall IPATH is dropping a new shoe from one of their most respected team riders, New Jersey’s own Fred Gall.  Fred’s first pro-model on IPATH, the new mid-top shoe comes in three color-ways (green, black and cream), features a vulcanized outsole and incorporates a mix of sustainable materials into the upper (including a hemp ankle strap) and Fred’s Jersey Devil logo on the tongue. The hemp ankle strap especially on the black one looks great and makes a nice contrast.
Like all IPATH’s, these kicks feature stash pockets underneath the tongues, so you can stash things worth stashing.If you’re not up on Fred, just search YouTube to check out what one of the East Coast’s best skaters has to offer.
Watch for more info on IPATH’s new lines of footwear and sneakers to come soon to finer skate-shops and lifestyle stores. Check out the other two colorways after the jump.
