OTW / Half Cab Reissue 33 / Engineered Knit 

This year, OTW and Blends put together an additional gift bag just for the OG Summit. Contents of the bags varied, but much to my personal delight, the majority of bags contained OTW Half Cabs, mostly the Engineered Knits with a handful of the Vibram Cabs sprinkled into the mix! Thanks to @underthepalms and @blendscm for continuing to keep the OG Summit alive and fresh! The ‘21 Summit was my first trip out specifically for a Vans community event and stands as my favorite of all community events to date. 
Heres some flicks from Summit ‘21, ‘23, and ‘24!

31 Days of Vans WaffleHead BBQ ‘24 

Just a quick thank you to everyone who put this years 31 Days of Vans wrap up celebration weekend together for the fam. @wearingwaffles @underthepalms / @djguamstyles thank you both for opening the doors that helped build this community into what it’s become. 

Spawned from the @underthepalms annual Vans summit at @blendscm and shaped into a full on celebration of the Vans community hosted by @stevevandoren himself at the Vans World Headquarters in Costa Mesa. I am beyond grateful to be invited out again for the 2nd ever, 31 Days of Vans WaffleHead BBQ. 
 
SoCal trips have been an annual event for the last 6 years and have evolved from hustling and staying around LA, eating, shopping and being a tourist in general to keeping it low key around OC, eating and just relaxing in general. This trip was a chill week of meet ups, eating an endless amount of outstanding food (pork belly every damn day!) and just kickin it with the homies. 

Thanks to @premeaddict_ for making all the trips out that much better. This trip was extra loaded as it fell across both of our birthday’s. We ate especially well, at the top of my list this year was @smokequeenbbq and it did not disappoint in the slightest, yet another spot to add to the annual must have list. We enjoyed nothing but the finest fresh local produce in some of the OC’s finest parking lots 😂 We chilled with the homies, Grill Bill whipped up and fed us his famous tacos featuring even more delicious pork belly from @chris.with.the.pher 

This was no doubt one for the books, thank you to everyone else that traveled out for the events, Vans, OTW, and Blends Costa Mesa for the shoes and loaded gift bags, and all the SoCal homies for always being so welcoming. See you guys next year! Maybe sooner! 

Thanks to @nu_dav and @oc_vanscollector for taking a lot of good pics and sending them my way as I dropped the ball on snapping many of my own this time. 🙏🏼
