Van Homan is still in Australia and he sent over a picture of some mint condition Orchid V1’s from our first production run in 2003. “Todd over at Backbone Bmx in Canberra had been saving his pair of Homan LE shoes from the first batch of 500 to have me sign so he could put them in a glass cube. Pretty dope.” If you want another pair like these they’re being reissued this month.

But the real story here might be Van’s creepy new beard which proves that he can finally grow facial hair and that he is indeed a ginger kid (or is he a daywalker?). More news on the weird beard as it develops.
