Vans and Empire have teamed up to do a collaboration with the Ruark shoe. They got Adam Roye involved to do the design work and it looks like it came out dialed as hell. Real simple and clean. I’m digging it. If you are digging it, you can pick a pair up on the Empire site for $59.95. You can find more photos of the shoe after the jump!
“collaborative effort between Empire BMX and Vans, designed by Adam Roye. Boom!
