Geoff's thirteenth signature shoe is the culmination of over a decade of design experience with Vans. In Geoff's words: "The Style 99's was a design idea I had been thinking over for the last few years- how to design a simple yet very unique pattern that would be both timeless and modern. All Vans footwear that has stood the test of time had these two elements. I would say it has been in the works since the moment I rode for Vans in early 1999, hence the name." The shoe is built on the foundation of Rowley's first Vans shoe with a simplified, slim padded upper inspired by our heritage. The upper features a subtle reference to the sidestripe- a detail Geoff deliberately worked into the design. The Style 99's combines clean colorblocking and the classic waffle sole to deliver all the style and performance you've come to expect from a Rowley design.
