Supra sponsored skater Erik Ellington recently displayed his latest board shoe, The Vega. The low profile model is toned up in blue suede and features a black ankle collar. The shoe features a sticky, rubberized outsole and vulcanized toecap for improved flexibility on the streets. The Vega also incorporates a SupraFoam midsole, a resilient-material that offers up unmatched comfort and impact protection.

Skate brand Vans recently released their Royal Blue Checkered Pack, a two-pair release featuring their classic SK8-Hi and timeless Authentic lowtop. The West Coast classics are toned up in alluring white/royal blue color schemes, and both offer up a checkered inner lining. Down below, the kicks are finished off by a reinforced, vulcanized midsole and sticky herringbone traction pattern that should contribute to an awesome boarding experience. The Vans Royal Blue Checkered SK8-Hi and Authentic are available now at colette.

Skate company Vans loves nature–after all, boarding and its interrelated subculture directly correlate with gettin’ out there and bustin’ a kickflip outdoors, right? It comes to no suprise then that the brand recently reworked their iconic SK8-Hi and Slip-On models to encompass the ecological world. Leopard print and an intriguing zebra pattern were creatively applied to the upper of each shoe. Celebrate your PETA pride today! The Vans “Animal” Series (or the Leopard SK8-Hi, Zebra SK8-Hi, Leopard Slip-On, and Zebra Slip-On for those keeping score at home) is available now at Japanese retailer ABC-Mart.

Vans offers a variety of colors applied to their classic Authentic model in their latest collection, the Suede package. The Authentic features a suede composition in addition to white laces and an outersole. Seven colors make up the Suede pack, black, chocolate truffle, wood thrush, jewel blue, pearl blue, moonlight blue and castro grey. You can find the Suede Pack now at Blends Costa Mesa and other Vans retailers. An additional photo can be found after the jump.
