Officials from USA BMX Foundation and the Terence Crutcher Foundation announced on Juneteenth the launch of RISE, an innovative mentoring program targeting underserved youth in North Tulsa. RISE stands for Resiliency, Inclusion, Social-Awareness, and Education.

The FAST AND LOOSE crew has members all over the world from all different backgrounds. It is the shared love of BMX that brought them together and formed the strongest bonds. When it came to building their Holiday 22 collection, the idea was simple: to make footwear and apparel that would allow them to stand out as individuals but still feel connected to the crew that reminds them that they are never alone. Featuring an exclusive FAST AND LOOSE colorway, the BMX Slip-On is made to handle the unique support and durability needs specific to BMX. Designed with BMX in mind, we added POPCUSH™ sockliners for extra cushioning and impact protection, DURACAP™ reinforcement, and WAFFLECUP™ BMX outsoles for maximum pedalfeel and support . . . with timeless style. Add in our brand new Van Doren Factory Pedal Recipe for a specifically formulated gum rubber compound to enhance pedal grip and durability, and you’ve got unrivaled BMX innovation to support your progression.
The Vans x FAST AND LOOSE BMX Slip-On is made with suede and denim uppers.
