Vans/Pro-Tec Canada announces its attendance to the BTAC ExpoCycle presenting the Vans Action Sport and Pro-Tec categories. With a focus on both BMX and Mountain Bike industries alike, they will provide classic, innovative footwear and protection to the Canadian retailers and riders.

"Vans and Pro-Tec help you go bigger and ride longer with footwear, helmets and pads for BMX, Mountain, and Freeride bike. While our roots go back to the beginnings of BMX, we continue to supply innovative technology, while offering safe classic style for the street and mountain rider. Our attendance to the BTAC ExpoCycle will showcase our commitment to the Canadian bike retailer and also illustrate our continuous strive to support and protect riders around the country."

For 2011 Vans and Pro-Tec has worked with industry leaders to provide relevant innovative products.

Pro-Tec x Odyssey

Celebrating over 25 years of originality, heritage and style, Pro-Tec is proud to partner with legendary part maker Odyssey, on a new bike helmet for 2011. Working closely with Odyssey, we colored our Classic silhouette with a sharp Odyssey bolt graphic, delivering an iconic helmet that's a nod to BMX's roots from the mid '80s. Featuring a high impact ABS shell, EPS liner and 11 open vents, the helmet comes in 5 different sizes and 3 shell breaks. An Odyssey sticker pack and custom slider box complete the package.

Vans x The Shadow Conspiracy

A collection representing a partnership between two like-minded companies coming together to embrace and promote the lifestyle and unbreakable free spirit within BMX. Vans brings authenticity, heritage and a long history of supporting BMX to this partnership while The Shadow Conspiracy brings a modern BMX style, true passion and a shared aesthetic. Two shoe styles, a hat and a T-shirt have been chosen to tell this story through design. Every piece is grounded in BMX heritage and lifestyle for a timeless look - yet still meets the performance demands of progressive riding.

Vans Canada will present a selection of the Spring 2011 VAS footwear collection in BTAC's ExpoCycle, September 12th - 14th.
