almost synonymous with the scenes long history.
Now the legendary punk band has teamed
up with Vans to bring fans limited edition Social Distortion Vans. Not
the vans you drive, the tennis shoes! Although, we dont know just
how punk rock having your own tennis shoe line is, Social D is still
one of the most popular punk bands in the world and recently sold out a
series of dates at the Anaheim, Ca and Hollywood House of Blues venues.

limited edition shoes via their online store as part of their special Vans
Web Exclusive Series. According to a statement from Vans they worked
closely with Social D on designing Old Skools and Sk8-Hi's to their specifications.
Both shoes feature the Skelly logo along with a Social Distortion tongue
label. --The Old Skools come in all-black suede while the Sk8-Hi's come
in the traditional black & white canvas/suede combination.
