A white\/black base likely ditches canvas for leather for easier customization, sporting references to his wife Kim with her name in a heart along with &#8220;It&#8217;s Never The End&#8221; stamping the left heel. Aside from that, we also find stars on the midsole, the text &#8220;Nicholas Cage Fighter&#8221; and a variety of quotes and doodles.<\/p>\n Kanye West Wears Custom Vans Old Skools in Cali\n Kanye West Wears Custom Vans Old Skools in Cali\n<p>For those looking to put their own Sharpie stamp on a pair of kicks, a similar (perhaps the same) pair of Vans Old Skools are available now online at <a href=\"http:\/\/www.vans.com\/shop\/premium-leather-old-skool-zip-true-white\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Vans<\/a> (editor&#8217;s note: props to whoever buys the red pair and uses white marker).<\/p>\n<p>Also, for anyone thinking Kanye wearing Old Skools is adding flame to the fire of Yeezy heading to Vans, it&#8217;s not. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.snkrsday.com\/kanye-west-isnt-leaving-adidas-for-vans-and-we-wont-click-bait-you-into-thinking-so\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Kanye is very much still with adidas<\/a> (they funded the Season 3 show at MSG) and Vans does not pay for people to wear their kicks, though they do collaborate with artists and endorse skaters.<\/p>\n<p>Kanye has been wearing Vans off and on since his <em>Late Registration<\/em> days, ranging from the Authentic to the Sk8-Hi. It should also be noted that new Kanye consultant Ian Connor is a big fan of the Old Skool, lacing Wiz Khalifa in said silo during the time period they worked together. Kanye collaborators Theophilus London and Travi$ Scott have been major wearers of the Old Skool for years now (note: Travi$ recently wore custom Sk8-His), and while we&#8217;re on the subject of custom\/draw-on Vans, of course we can&#8217;t forget Tyler the Creator, who has been rocking Vans while doodling on them seemingly forever (as have many skaters).<\/p>\n<p>Are you feeling this look on Kanye?
