Vans OTW just released this very limited Dimitri Coste Catalina Grand Prix look book available at select retailers. If you ever had the pleasure of meeting Dimitri like we did at the UBIQ x Vans OTW release party, just from talking to him you would know his love of anything with 2 wheels….. And Elvis. So this look book mask total sense after a 52 year hiatus the Catalina Grand Prix returned and Dimitri was there to document as well as race….I don’t want to give any thing away but let’s just say he rips it up. Check out the video below . Check out the cookbook after the jump.
A couple of weeks ago Jena wrote Banksy took me to the MOCA on Monday. In it she mentioned “Mister Cartoon delivered hard with a bright orange suped up ice cream truck accompanied by a tricked out stroller the likes of which you would only see in Clowns from Outerspace.” Well here is your chance to check out Mister Cartoon talking about his artwork in Moca’s Art In The Streets Show.
Coming January you will be able to pick up a pair of the new VANS OTW Bedford. The shoes will be offered in select shops featuring the use of suede, canvas, and premium leathers. You can pick them up at select VANS OTW dealers.
Vans OTW advocate Dimitri Costa shows us what becomes of you if you grow up in France and don’t like soccer. Packed with Motorcycles, BMX, and Vans, there is little to be desired after watching this video.
The west coast hosted their Vans OTW Collection release party last month, and on Friday night June 18th, it was our turn here in the east. Hosted by Set Free at Ubiq in Philadelphia, the entire event was executed with one hundred percent class from the red carpet to the tuxedo clad servers offering up crab cakes and sushi. Ubiq’s first level was decked out with about thirty pairs of Vans from the celebratory collection, all surrounding an “OTW” ice sculpture in the middle of the room. That’s right, I said ice sculpture! From there it was off to the second level which is a great space with nicely finished wood floors and lots of wall space for all of the artwork. Each artist, Eric Elms, Dimitri Coste, and The Blackouts (Ako and Atiba Jefferson), had their own section or defined wall where their pieces could be enjoyed.
