It looks like Vans actually tried with this boot this season. For the past couple of years they made this boot and it sold well. it was comfortable, and it had Boa.

Almost Cut My hair......

After hearing all the great one liners like..."1984 called and want its hair back", or "how old are you? 16?". I broke down and cut my hair. Oddly enough, as I was sitting here debating on whether to do it, CSN came up on the Itunes library with "almost cut my hair". It made me think that I really don't need to be like david Crosby, and it also reminded me how much I loath Neil Young. So take that CSN, I did cut my hair, and all for the price of $13 plus tip. Ahhhh Feel my freedom!
