Vans and Geoff Rowley had a ton of good friends in New York City over the weekend for the Maloof Money Cup and we celebrated the release of Geoff’s new signature shoe, the Rowley [SPV] on Saturday, June 4 at House of Vans in Brooklyn, NY.

Just a few of the faces seen at the House of Vans included Tony Alva, Lance Mountain, Pat Ngoho, AVE, Johnny Layton, Tony Trujillo, Dustin Dollin, Curren Caples, Andrew Langi, Bryan Herman and legendary photographer Glen E. Friedman who stopped by to catch up with TA. While many just caught up and listened to the music, a session at the House of Vans bowl ran until the end of the night. Peep a full set of photos here.
