The Vans Half Cab 20th Anniversary celebration continues its monthly Artist Series with Japan-born and San Jose-bred Taka Hayashi, who hits us with this sick two-toned colorway. Tapped by Steve Caballero himself, Taka brings in his coastal roots to this beach-friendly colorway with a distinct Half Cab level on the upper featuring a skating skeleton. It’s no surprise that Taka Hayashi, given his roots in art and design, continues to be a big player in Vans’ special edition capsules, and luckily for you, this Fall 2012 release has just become available for purchase directly from the Vans online shop.
