Sneak Peek: Vans – Limited Edition Swampfest Slip-Ons

March 23, 2019

Are you heading down to Florida next weekend for the FloriDeah Swampfest? Make sure you get there early on the 30th because there are 100 pairs of the VERY limited edition Vans Slip-On’s that will be for sale. Since there are only 100 pairs that will be available, we would imagine sizes are going to be limited so these will probably go real fast. No word on price, either, but we would assume whatever they are being sold for will be worth it. These things look so badass. Check out more photos below!

How sick are those graphics?

Swampfest embroidery on the back.

Badass graphics made their way into the insoles as well!

What do you think of the shoes? Would you pick these up? Let us know what you are thinking in the comments below!
