Vans Rowley XL2 Shoes Review
Vans Rowley XL2s are made of strong action leather and suede, double stitched toe cap, puffy tongue and great heel padding, and a grippy sole - basically, it has everything you want in a skate shoe, and it's light.

I don't understand it, but I like it! Read this review for more info.
