Vans is creating a competition among five well known fashion icons for the release of their new Vans Fourty-Four High, which places the West Coast (Crooks & Castles and a mystery shop) vs. the East Coast ( 5Boro of NYC, UK skater Danny Wainwright, and another mystery shop).

Availability will be exclusive to each coast while the arguably the Danny Wainwright model is slated to drop this month.
