This is How We Roll>>Vans

Recently Jeremiah "Jam" Brooks, a professional skater, was put in the hospital after being hit by a jeep on the side of a highway while on tour. To help pay for his bills and for his recovery, several artist/skaters within the pro skating community put together a fundraiser. They've all custom painted a pair of Vans Skate His to be put up for auction, and also have made other pieces of art to be displayed at a benefit in Boulder, Colorado.

There are some pretty cool ones, though some of the styles aren't really my type of thing. My favorites are the Louis Schmidts, Hoshi Ludwigs and the Brian Balls. Unfortunately, they're all size 9 and are probably going to blow up in price seeing as the bids are lasting for another three days or so (longer for some). However, that being said, I'd probably spring for shoes that say "Puke Blood Forever".
