NEW!! NAVY BLUE T-SHIRTS & SWEATSHIRTS spiritedman.com
HOORAY!!! Thank You
Going to need that in black, Van.
You know what?? I'm in. I believe in the slogan, and I believe in you, Van. I will be making my shirt purchase directly. Let's work this wall together. Who knows, maybe this dream...your dream will come true.
Anyone know how the sizing is? If it shrinks? NEED this sweater.
Great freaking shirt. just bought one..From Australia :)
Love the up front honesty “This is a merch drop”
Yeah it kind of cushions you from the 'I need the money to buy my multi million dollar dream home'.
right?!
I don't know exactly what made you and Casey be the way you are. With so many things going wrong anyone would have broken but you two didn't, you rose instead. And both of you have inspired me to improve my life and I have! I have achieved so many things I used to believe I wouldn't achieve. So, thank you.
it's Tom Sachs
@@ierdna69 not sure if only one, but Tom certainly deserves a lot of credit here.
If the Neistat brothers told that story I would watch for sure. I'm raising kids and need all the help I can get.
This, this right here. Casey inspired me to make the world my own through the constant customizations of things
I'm certain they were "doers" even before working for tom but his philosophy on work and art surely inspired the guys to double down on what they already had and pursue things in their way.
That's a good shirt.
What Jake said!
I agree. Love your work too Jake.
Thats a good life
Van, you and your brother convinced and inspired me to leave Saudi Arabia and pursue my own dreams. I love you both
I hope you find peace in ur life
@@theironemald8779 thank you sir
@@theironemald8779 I wanted to become a film maker and talk openly about religion and these things are at odds with Saudi culture
@@mindscream7818 I’m glad you have started that keep going sir. Only way is up
@@theironemald8779 thank you so much
Van, you are striking a chord with me. In this age of 30 second TikTok splurs and fast everything, It's nice that you draw me in to your stories where I actually want to slow down and listen to what you tell us. For that I thank you and of course I will do my part in your realizing your dream.
Tearing up at an advertisement.... The brilliance of great storytelling. Thanks Van.
Van, that was so beautiful. Even for a crass merch drop, it was just so very profound and moving. Darn you/thank you, I have to buy a damn T-shirt now.
This genuinely made me very emotional. I bought two. One for me and one for my Dad, who died trying. His story isn’t as sad now, thank you.
Thanks, I needed that message today
One of the most honest and heartfelt merch videos I've ever seen. Thank you for the work you do and for awakening this Spirited Man.
This video made me pull the trigger on a t-shirt and the almost equal amount in postage to Australia! I discovered your videos by accident and watched your organisation video first, it changed my life. To me you are the original Neistat brother. All the best with that immaculate dream! And Thank You!
best merch drop i have ever seen!
You're showing me things that I didn't know I needed to see. For that I thank you Van.
Thank you for always being transparent with your intentions. The genuine honesty makes it easy to help fulfill your dreams!
No idea how you do it, but your videos always take me to another place where time doesn't exist and I sit here in a dream state of just "being". A beautiful rare skill you have there. Why your film making and story-telling skills are not in the highest demand, I just don't know. You should be wildly successful in these times and already living your dreams. Your work is among the best I've ever seen.
It’s crazy man. I don’t know why but I almost have tears after watching this film. Freakin beautiful. My kids loved that art installation. I miss Los Angeles so much. Thank you for sharing your films with us.
You ARE going to buy Chris Burden's compound. I believe in you
This video brought tears to my eyes. It's bursting so much with emotion for me, the beauty and complexity and simplicity and what we can achieve as humans is sometimes overwhelming.
This particular song by grey makes my soul feel nice. Thanks Grey
This, just at the moment I needed to be told to try harder. Good timing, thank you.
I'm bouta wear the crap outa that hoodie. Simple design, dark color. WIN
This is the very first time that I’ve been choked up by a RUclips merch drop.
Excellent work!!
RIP to Chris Burden. Thank you for sharing the memories and his work with us. ✌️
There was a "die trying" brand in the late 90s. ... And probably several other times as well. Always appreciate the motto
Finally a hoodie color I can live in! (as in literally... I could live in this hoodie!)
Wow! Mind blown! “Die Trying”! What an epic motto to live by. For sure gunna grab a sweat shirt. Thanks Van!
Happily you found Topanga canyon with all the other happy LA artists
What a great way to drop merch and tell a story!
I liked the story. I had no idea how the LACMA Urban Light sculpture came to be. Burden. Cool.
I purchased the sweatshirt because I love the message, this is first merchandise I've bought from RUclips. Respect.
Always love to watch your videos when im dealing with bullshit at work. Thanks for the free meditation through your amazing work Van.
I stumbled into a performance of the flying steamroller in London one fall afternoon (maybe 2008?) and it remains one of my most treasured experiences with art. I suspect the Topanga compound would be your own personal flying steamroller. Make it fly!
Love the new shirts!
Build that studio.. because you will only change whatever you buy to fit your needs, so if you design and build it exactly to your specifications it will be your work of art. Good luck with your dream.
InshAllah Van, inshAllah u'll buy it one day. You're so creative on literally everything you do and actually by watching you my soul gets inspired to calm the fuck down and don't just want material things but be creative and live the life as normal as I can. Thanks.
The added value of this merch makes it priceless. I never imagined I would be crying on an add video. You are inspiring beyond any immagination. Keep going please never ever stop making videos.
I lived on Hillside right at the top for about a decade (red house on the corner). I remember all this going down and it brings back some amazing memories - thank you Van!
Merch secured. I own every piece you've put out. #Spiritedman
Beautiful title inspired by Les Blanks documentary “The Burden of Dreams”. Would love to hear you talk more about working with Werner Herzog :)
I came here for this comment. I would also REALLY like to hear more about his experiences with Herzog.
F yeah. I dig my beanie, thanks for sending it out. Great story. Now I want the hoodie.
Love the shirts, Just picked one up!
You see *Urban Light* used in so many RUclips videos so it was really neat to hear the story behind it, and get to learn a bit more about the man who put it all together.
Thank you for this.
When someone announcing this is a merch drop video, and then you continue to watch the whole thing. You know there is something special about these videos
merch-plugs which bring awe and inspiration. bravo sir 🤞
Neistat bros know how to make an ad not an ad, but an experience.
Now I got "beast of burden" stuck into my head.
Awesome tune! 🙌🏼
You're making a difference with your work, Van. Thank you so much for that!
Salutations from Costa Rica :)
I know I said I wouldn't miss videos van but I can say I have a good job now and I am one step closer to traveling the U.S. on a motorcycle and making a RUclips you are still the most tasteful youtuber thank you for the dream man
Dammit, you got me. Blue Hoodie winging its way to Lancashire, England. Loving your work.
My favorite thing about Vans videos is the slowness. I normally "watch" youtube while I'm editing photos or videos...but when Van comes up I stop. But it full screen and take a break and slow down. Thank you. This spirited man appreciates it. Now I have to buy a hoodie
You're the man, Van.
👍
Order complete!! I'm not skinny enough to pull off a white shirt, but blue is great!!
Something about these videos just puts me at ease
A shirt not in white! Loved the other designs but worry about staining them (and my admittedly pale complexion). Happy to support your awesome content!
Van your compassion and eagerness for the nostalgic brings a longing within me for a nostalgia I do not know. Good luck on your journey and full filling your dream.
Well, looks like I’m buying a shirt. Great video! Everyone needs to put something in the kitty to help Van’s dream. 👍
Thank you Van!
Bought one. Love the idea of telling me what the merch is going for. TY!
I've never bought something so fast in all my days.
Once again - BRILLIANT!
Thank you for the message. I needed that.
That is such a clever title, given Van’s appreciation of Herzog
i get chills from all your videos
YOU MADE MY WEEK! Two Van uploads in less that 48 hours!!!! Can't get enough!
I just purchased the t-shirt from the UK. It will probably cost me an arm and a leg in taxes. But hell I admire your spirit and I intend to die trying too.
Love this slogan! Wish I could afford to help you out but I’m tight right now. I hope you consider making this into a sticker.
Love the type written transition.
thanks for the navy!!! been wanting a jacket for awhile but I spill stuff on white lol.
Got chills with that merch
What a wonderful video. I also really like the music. Greetings from cologne.
Some of the axioms I've heard you say that I've found powerful and which could be slapped on merch are:
The purpose of the work is to do better work
Discipline is doing things you hate as if they are things you love
Set the standard
One of the most creative and honest ways to promote merch I've seen in social media. Love that spirit 👏 👏 👏
Always inspired. Always inspiring
One of your best videos yet Van, much love
Get those tall sizes Van! XLT, I'll buy a shirt and sweatshirt!
Just bought the sweatshirt!
Best merch drop ever!
I forget how brilliant Van is sometimes..them I watch his videos...
Please go back on Bert's show, you two got cut short and definitely need to talk more. It was a great moment seeing you both super excited.
I was glued to that interview. So good.
Agreed!
That was phenomenal
Really lovely! I accidentally tripped across your video and enjoyed your "Director (and all the rest) signature". It was not until I read the comments that I realised that you are related to Casey; that I have heard of but I have never seen his videos.. which I will now go and have a look out of curiosity. Meanwhile, I have subscribed to your channel as I like the craftsmanship and art that your honest and well-established stories reflect. Thank you.
I started crying at 1:23. I love your movies Van. Thank you.
Just ordered a shirt, good luck sir.
Love your videos. Thanks for all your hard work. I look forward to each one.
Love your channel Van!!!
Excellent and powerful merch 👍🏻
just two words, but they have such profound meaning.
Just loved this video... I would have definitely bought this if I could.❤
You got me with that one Van I'm in !
Beautiful!
I love everything about this RUclips page
Just ordered the blue shirt in 3XL because cotton shrinks and this spirited man has put on weight over the years. This spirited man also sells shirts but no one buys them.
I really enjoyed this. Thank you
Your videos are soothing.
Beautiful 🙌
i wish i have a house in that area and hang with Van. Greets from croatian contemporary artist living in Berlin. Oh, i might also as well buy a shirt!
Merch drop with a story. Fantastic.
Man, what a way to drop merch!
Thank you for your art.
