Max Schaaf’s contribution to society shouldn’t be overlooked. He’s a guy who seamlessly blends several decades of masculine aesthetics into a timeless walking history of rebellious dudes, keeping alive some of the lessons that could be all but forgotten in today’s fast-twitch media cycle. Schaaf’s latest collaboration with Vans Syndicate celebrates his hometown and the 4Q Conditioning shop he runs there, this Vans Mountain Edition Asym chock full of details.
