While cleaning out the garage I found my Christian hosoi high tops my cousin bought me for Christmas 25 years ago took them to the cobbler and had him fix a tear on the inner Arch as well as a tear that was about to happen on the other inner Arch after I told him the story behind the shoes and their collectible now and everything the dude only charged me 10 fuckin dollars. I looked online and saw some for 580 I've got the ones with the Rising Sun on the side not just the stripes. Only slightly faded and in good condition I'm keeping everything original.. washed with soap and water dried in the Sun I'm going to clean the soles/side soles up with spray and wash/ sponge and rock them this Thanksgiving and blow my cousin's mind. Me and my cousin are very tight and we've been rocking Vans since we were both probably eight or 10 years old he's 40 & still skating and I'm 50 and still surfing. Can't wait to crack a beer with my cousin and be like check out my shoes cuz. Just a van shoe story I thought I'd share.✌

[@vantheman3857]

@Benjamin Sims whoa just got this notification so glad you're reminding me to get out my shoes. Freaking pandemic I haven't seen my cousin Thanksgiving Christmas but I am seeing him for New Year's small get together for the first time in a while if you didn't reply I probably would have spaced it.. this is what the internet is truly for thanks homie🤘🏼😮

[@yoyoyoonbitch]
