Vans Men's Danny Kass Boot Olive 2024

If there was a Snowboarding Hall of Fame, Danny Kass would be in it. His career as a professional was nothing short of—and quite literally—a reality TV show. From his early days on the East Coast, to multiple US Opens, X-Games, and Olympic medals, to head of the Grenade Army, DK has arguably influenced as much of the contemporary snowboard scene as anyone in its history. But in this next phase of his career, Danny is focused on sharing lessons learned with the next generation of snowboarders in his role as a coach on the United States Snowboard Team. And after more than a decade apart, Vans is very happy to welcome him back for this limited One & Done project. Welcome back, DK ... now let’s see a kickflip.

*ONE AND DONE!!! Once these boots sell they are gone and will not be remade*
