These are my favorite vans as of yet! Anyone know the production numbers on these? I heard they only made a few hundred pairs, is this just hype? thanks!

^That pics cool, but they look better with black laces and only laced to the fifth hole.

I dont have any actual production numbers either, but I would venture to agree that they definitely made more than a few hundred...I saw them too many places...I could always be wrong, but I dont think so

The Hosoi's were released in the Van's full price retail stores. You know they were everywhere. We were selling them before the crappy Vans song came out. Now everyone wants them after they are hard to find.

I have a ton of vans from vaults to mj collection to syndicate and collabs
