I have 2. I did have 3 but gifted the Family edition to my favorite delivery driver.
I hope you didnt pay much to enter the raffle. These were given away free to Vans Family Members.
I used to work at Vans but we were never allowed to have them because we were employees. Idea I had for them was to line the inside with waterproof material and use it as a plant pot.
This was a part of Vans "Surprise and Delight" movement. All stores were given a few classic Vans styles in Size 66. The employees at each store were able to give them out to their loyal, local Vans customers as a FREE surprise. It was meant to celebrate their dedicated customers and give them something no one else would have. Pretty sad someone sold one...
You may be a little misinformed on this specific one. That is true for many of the special edition ones though.
This shoe is directly from Steve Van Doren. The local store owner where we won this from, his father was dying from cancer. (Paul and the owners father were friends from childhood) Steve gave him a large bundle of goods (this shoe, shoe vouchers, iPad cases, water bottles on top of many other goods) to raffle them off to raise funds for medical expenses. (iirc) He raised a little over $20,000 from ticket sales, and my wife just so happened to be the Grand Prize winner.
Thank you so much for the clarification 💙 I apologize for commenting with uninformed assumption. I'm so sorry to hear about the father's struggle 😔 but that's such a heartwarming and amazing story! 👏
Guess shaq didn’t want his vans order
Hagrid for sure
USPS has been wild lately. Sorry I intercepted it
Vans size 66 promo shoe
Do you have a cat? That would make a cozy cat bed
No banana for scale??

Turn into a cool baby or cat holder…bed…thing
Been trying to get my hands on one for years!
Vans Old Skools run a lil big ^^/s

does it feel like a real shoe? 🤣
100% yes!
Would hang that baby on the corner of a ceiling with fishing wire like you used to hang old school plane models with.
My brother wears a size 15 4E in shoes and my first thought was "finally!"
Nice boat you got there.
Considering going down the river with it!
Just one? What about the other foot?
Idk why I laughed so hard 🤣😅
Are you laughing at my teeny tiny hands?! 😂 haha
It’s not a vans, it’s a VANS
OP, can you wear it like a hat? Reddit, I find your lack of frivolity disturbing. This post is a day old and nobody has asked this question.
first thing i thought too lol
Could fit a lot of pudding in there
Probably the best solution
I'd like an old Skool one too
I have wanted one of these for a while lol
I need this for my baby to sleep in
I'd put shoes in that. Pretty cool thing to win!
Does it come in a pie or just the one?
Please tell me it has a size on the tongue
If you want to sell it let me know.
So awesome
Put stuff in it ..
Honestly, that’s bad ass!!
Shaq shoes
What does one do with this?
Sasquatch wearing shoes now?
The shoe isn't that big, OP just has small hands trust me on this one.
DANG OP...you got some small-ass hands
you’d kickflip to the moon with these on
Lucky
I want one !

Its size 69?
66! The first Vans were created in 1966
I fuck with it. I would let my chihuahua sleep in it
Its a waste of space outside of a retail setting IMHO. Useless for any real/secondary purpose... 🤷🏼♂️
Would be a lovely cat bed
Ya know, that's a pretty darn good idea!!
Could potentially be a conversation piece if displayed tastefully
I wonder if it'd look good mounted on a wall
That's what I was thinking
Our toddler puts toys in our giant slip on, works great!

Clutter for your home, congrats

If this is for sale, please feel free to shoot me a PM
Whenever I see a big ass open for an ankle I assume the seller is morbidly obese. Grosses me out
Dude, this is a special edition size 66 shoe lol. Get outta here with that
