Things keep getting better for Daan Van Der Linden this year, having already scored the cover of Thrasher and Free Skate Mag, as well as having a part in Volcom's highly anticipated full length 'Holy Stokes, Vans have now announced the release of a signature footwear colour way for the young Dutch ripper.
The recentley introduced Style 112 is one of the brands core skate styles, designed and worn by the Vans skate team themselves. Like Daan's skateboarding, the 112 is a versatile shoe providing both style and functionality in its design. Maintaining mist of the shoes key features such as the UltraCush HD footbed for ultimate board feel and cushioning upon impact, a DURACAP upper for durability, Vans signature waffle outsole for unrivaled grip and also the brands vulcanised lite construction to deliver the best in board feel, flex and traction. For it's latest rework, Van Der Linden has kept it stealthy with a black suede applied to the upper with tonal leather detailing on the side stripe and heel paneling. The shoe is accented with a special light olive colour on the lacing, Vans heel stamp and custom Van Der Linden print on the heel.
Daan had this to say on the shoe...
“I am really happy with how it turned out, and even more so as I wanted to include suede throughout. One of the areas I looked at in great detail was the extra toe protection, which I wanted to be complimented by great board feel. In the final outcome, I think we’ve accomplished both”!
The Daan Van Der Linden Style 112 Pro colourway is now available at Vans.com.
