Vans

The Palisades Center Mall does have a Vans. It also has a lot of ugly people. But that’s ok, because the Vans Store more than makes up for it. While the mall is inconceivably, and unnecessarily enormous, the Vans Store is roughly equivalent to a closet in an Alpine Mansion. The selection of shoes is not spectacular in comparison to the latter, either. You can certainly buy some original hi-​tops, and some of their newer cellophane knock-​offs with the same logo, but if you think you can find the newly-​released goodness that exists on their website, you will be sorely disappointed. This store is run impeccably, complete with Vans-​fanboy staff, which makes shopping a breeze. I got some white on black indestructible originals and walked out. That is all.
