Now Yo Gabba Gabba will have to do an episode on not rubbing it in when your shoes are cooler than everyone else's.
Me, oh, I'm just sitting here coveting some sweet new Vans with cartoon characters on them.

Okay, so they're not just any cartoon characters; I do have my standards you know. They're the totally rad-meets-wtf Yo Gabba Gabba Vans. They're not coming out until November, and I have no idea where these shoes will be on sale, besides places that deal in AWESOME. But I was so excited seeing Muno, Foofa and Plex on Classic Slip-On and Sk8-Hi styles for kids that I couldn't wait to tell you. Mostly so there might be someone besides me to share my anxiety and anticipation with for the next three months.

Three months. That's like 4,320 episodes of Yo Gabba Gabba. -Liz

Find the new Yo Gabba Gabba Vans online through vans.com and other Vans retailers in November 2010.

And if you've got a skateboarding fan in the family, don't miss the Vans Get Out and Do Something Tour making its way from Virginia up to Brooklyn starting August 30.
