Vans Skate Grosso Mid Black/White/Emo Leather Shoe

Gone but never forgotten.
Jeff Grosso's 50 year legacy of skateboarding is marked not just with aggresive runs and stylish handplants. He was a gatekeeper to what was cool, an ambassador of the love of skating, and a storyteller of the finest tradition. His enthusiasm for skateboarding was infectious. If you ever want someone who doesn't skate to try to comprehend why we love it so much just have them listen to Jeff Grosso talk about skateboarding. The man was stoked!
Vans pays tribute to this hero in a sport with no heroes with a series of Sk8-Hi Reissues commemorating Grosso's life on board.
Jeff Grosso tweaked, updated, and improved his special build of the Sk8-Mid piece by piece starting in 2009. That’s 11 years of refinement.
