Inspired by the DIY nature of custom designer goods, Bodega has reworked the OG Style 36 LX and gave it a touch of luxury. Dressed in black and white, the Vans X Bodega OG Style 36 LX is constructed in a premium mix of luxe materials inspired by DIY luxury. 

‘The goal was to take a more timeless and elevated design approach while retaining the ethos that Bodega was built upon over the past 15 years, especially in relation to our partnership with Vans,’ says Matt Zaremba of Bodega.

The Vans X Bodega OG Style 36 LX is now exclusively available in store at Bodega Boston and Bodega Los Angeles.

Honestly, I am not into highs, and I think this version would look better in low-tops. Anyway, it feels also that Nike SB is running all their dunk motifs into the ground - as this ain't the first tearaway they've done. I don't like the pre-aged midsoles also. In fact, I am using Salon care 40s to whiten all my sb dunks' yellow midsoles.

Skateboarders here in our country have to resort to streets as they don't have a lot of options when it comes to skating areas. As such, they skate at night, when the streets are empty. Some set up their skating "ramps" and/or grind rails in abandoned areas. While there some who dare to skate in places that don't really allow skateboarding such as promenades and sidewalks.

As of this writing, there are still no laws or regulations on skateboarding in our country. In contrast, countries like in the U.S. or U.K. have lots of skate parks, as well as skateboarding laws that require skaters to wear protective equipment.

So, Where to Skate In Manila?

Thankfully, there are some skate parks/spots in Metro Manila where you can pursue freedom from the limits of your minds. 

Here are some skate spots/parks in Manila to name the few:

• Jackass Project Skatepark in Pasig City
• Bonifacio Global City
• The Streets of San Juan
• Mendiola
• Vitas Park, Tondo
• Lawton Post Office 
• Manila Skate Park
• Mountain Dew Skate Park
• Vitas Skate Park and Aquatics

Like the original version, which was released all the way back in 1994, the Vans Sport aka Epoch Sport features many of the Vans signatures that we all know and love: that low-top silhouette, the waffle outsole, and the extremely '90s looking “V” stripe at the side. The Vans Sport has already had an impressive colorway releases this year, including this Suede Vans Sport in black/white that is now on sale for only $29.95.
