Cult BMX x Vans grips
Cult BMX have a long history of collaborating with Vans shoes for BMX products. The Cult Vans grips were launched back in 2011 and take the tried and tested Vans shoes waffle sole pattern and transform it into a BMX grip. Not only are Vans BMX shoes extremely popular but these Cult grips have gone on to be one of the most successful BMX grips in history. These Cult grips are made in the USA by ODI grips who are renowned for making some of the best BMX grips including the infamous ODI Longneck grips. ODI have a unique compound of rubber that makes these BMX grips both soft and grippy while also being durable and long lasting.
The Cult x Vans BMX grips are available with a flangeless or flanged version according to your preference. Most BMX riders that have a front or rear brake will choose the flanged version as this protects your thumb from rubbing on the brake lever. BMX riders who prefer to ride without brakes tend to choose the flangeless grips.
Many of the Cult BMX riders are also sponsored by Vans shoes, this includes Dakota Roche, Corey Walsh, Killian Roth, Angie Marino, Trey Jones and many more.
As well as collaborating on BMX grips the Cult Crew have also worked with Vans on the infamous Cult Waffle tyre that uses a scaled down version of the Vans waffle sole as its tread pattern. This BMX tyre was later followed up by the Cult x Vans Wafflecup tyre which uses the same technique but incorporating the Wafflecup sole. As well as BMX tyres and BMX grips, these two companies have also worked together to create BMX shoes and Clothing and BMX Pivotal seats.
