Vans and JUJU Surf Club recognize that the positive effects of surfing span far beyond what happens in the water. Founded by Mikey and Zelti February, JUJU Surf Club is a non-profit organization dedicated to uplifting existing and emerging African surf programs.
Every piece in this collection was meticulously designed to elevate JUJU Surf Club’s mission of youth empowerment, job creation, and a thriving African surf culture. Designed around JUJU’s eye-catching gold and burnt orange color palette, the Juju Surf Authentic VR3 SF features a “JUJU SURF CLUB” along the side of the outsole, and the easy-on / easy-off of the collapsible heel that our surf shoes are known for.
