Vans, in partnership with A.skate foundation, is giving you a chance to own a piece of history. Steve Cabellero hand selected over 20 of his favorite artists to customize one pair each of natural canvas Half Cab 20th Anniversary edition shoes, which are up for online auction to benefit A.skate. Also part of the auction: Vans Syndicate asked skateboarding editor and photographer Lance Dawes to curate an exhibition of photography spanning twenty years from some of the world’s greatest skateboard photographers featuring some of the world’s greatest skateboarders wearing Half Cabs.
The shoes & photos went on display at last week’s Half Cab 20th Anniversary party at the House of Vans and for a limited time only can be yours via online auction, with proceeds being donated to the A.skate Foundation, which is dedicated to combating autism with skateboarding.
