Vans will release another Sk8-Hi that will pay homeage to 80’s OG skater Christian Hosoi. Christian is a legend in the skate community and is well known by many skaters. During his career he was introduced to drugs and he was later charged for trafficking with the intent to distribute. While serving his sentence he recieved salvation declaring Jesus Christ as his Lord and savior, and changed his life. He now runs Hosoi Skateboards and the legendary mark he made in the world of skateboarding is still highly respected to this day.
Many of you may remember the first Hosoi Sk8-Hi’s Vans made, and it’s a very sought after Sk8-Hi. If you’re still confused Kanye West was seen in a pair a while back. They favor the second edition with the rising sun theme, and some people even call them Japan or Tokyo Vans. Nonetheless here’s a very early look at the Hosoi Sk8-Hi’s, and according to the info provided they will release Spring 2008. I’m sure many people are excited about this Hosoi Sk8-Hi 2 news.
