DIMMU BORGIR AND NUCLEAR BLAST TEAM UP WITH VANS SHOES, TERMINAL PRESS AND JSR MERCH

Vans, one of the world’s leaders in the shoe and apparel market, has joined forces with Nuclear Blast Records and plans to unveil a custom pair of shoes designed by Vans’ own Matt Shipman.  The design will feature DIMMU BORGIR art.  The ONLY PAIR will be raffled off and one lucky winner will own this part of history!

The shoe will be on display at Booth #116 at the San Diego Comic Con starting July 22nd through July 26th.

All visitors purchasing Nuclear Blast product at Booth #116 will be entered to win.  Entries will require contact information as well as desired shoe size.  Vans will announce the winner at a later date.
Vans’ Matt Shipman comments:

"It's an honor to be working with one of the founding extreme metal labels. I have been a huge Nuclear Blast fan ever since the early nineties and most of their now legendary death metal releases!  Being able to work with such a well-respected label and the black metal powerhouse DIMMU BORGIR is an honor.  I look forward to doing more projects with Vans and Nuclear Blast in the future!"

Nuclear Blast’s Gerardo Martinez comments:

“What else can be said about Vans that hasn’t being said?  They are the BEST shoe company in the world!  They provide the blue print for the many companies that imitate them and will continue to do so.  They dominate the Skateboarding, BMX, Surfing and extreme sports worlds, and to have them be a part of ‘our’ world is simply mind-blowing. I was surprised at how many metal heads work there and how passionate are about our bands. It’s a pleasure to be working with them!”

Silenoz of DIMMU BORGIR states:
"Finally we have a real special treat available for the true DIMMU fan!  What other company in the world other than Vans could possibly do a DIMMU BORGIR shoe justice?  Wear it proud!"

A few of Vans’ current shoe designs will be on display throughout the weekend at Booth #116.  There are plans for more custom shoe collaborations tied to Nuclear Blast bands & album releases in the not-so-distant future.








----------------------------------------------------------


Metal fans lucky enough to have tickets to this year's sold-out Comic-Con in San Diego will have the opportunity to purchase an exclusive DIMMU BORGIR "Diaboli" t-shirt at Booth #116.


The shirt (image above) is limited to a 200-piece production run and costs $16.00, so if you want one, you better rush to Booth #116, which will be a booth shared between Nuclear Blast Records, JSR Merchandising and The Century Family.

Vans sold out and moved their manufacturing facilities from the U.S. to overseas, putting shitloads of Americans out of work, so fuck 'em.

Because they can make money off of it. They are sell-outs.

Be cencere....: Wouldtnt everybody who's managed to make a living of playing dark metal, regnbuerock (hehe) , try make as much as possible? Even you?
I certainly would. Dimmus " success hasnt exactly come easily.
They never gave up, thats the clue. So let them laugh all the way to the bank.
Theyre NOT sell-outs, they do whatever they want. Gotta respect that.
Me, i've beebn a Swans fan since -85, but i refuse to dislike them now because the new material probably reach a lot more people.
And Death In June, how popular havent they became? But theyre still one of my favourites. Throbbing Gristle as well.

Vans arn't the best shoe in the world.  And why the hell would someone want to advertise a band on a shoe?  I really love Dimmu Borgir, but advertising you guys on a shoe is a little too much, i will just stick with the shirts.  And only one pair doesn't seem like it's worth it.

They shouldn't be selling any kind of apparel aside from shirts and patches.
