I love this time of year…yeah, we’re supposed to get more snow tonight, but I know the warm weather is around the corner. Why? Because, the new Vans Surf collection is here, so anyone ready to gear up can do so now. I know the warmth is coming soon!!

We got a new Joel Tudor color-up of the 106 SF. The shoe is waste-free and the hemp canvas upper is made of re-cycled plastic bottles. There’s pretty sick “Kookbox” graphics printed on the in-sole, but I’ll let you come in to see for yourself. The 2nd pair of black laces might win over the grey in my opinion.

The Rata Plus (a consistent EB favorite) is back again! Obviously good for a more grown look, but also super comfy and  ready to be rocked on your way to the beach…

An update to the Rata Plus, is the Rata Vulc. The gum-rubber vulc outsole gives the shoe a sturdier, yet still hyper flexible and soft feel. With Spring Break and other warm-weather getaways coming up, these shoes are perfectly packable and easy to keep with you on the go.  The blue hemp is pretty tasty as well…

Now if only I could surf…
