Made for real-live prisoners in California prisons, Vans created these as laceless wonders with Velcro straps instead - because with all that time on lockdown, there's no telling what kind of trouble you could get yourself into with a set of shoelaces. Rubber-capped toes, canvas uppers, triple-closures and classic Vans style at the crisscross soles. Logo tag at the ankle and heel, because a number just seems so impersonal. (from UO)

As ddml is not present, I will answer. Yes, ordinary civilians may buy the prison-issue Vans; no need to be convicted of a felony!

UO == Urban Outfitters

The prison issues look alot like Jack Purcells. Although the cross-stitching annoys me for some reason.

UO - of course - thanks. I'm strangely attracted to them, even though I have serious issues with Velcro.

I find it strange how some people are standing up against racism in this thread but not the subtly anti-homosexual comments being thrown at International Male all the time.

Awareness of race and history is not racism.
