Vans has had a resurgence of sorts over that past few years that us 2004 Hot Topic and PacSun heads have tried to fully grasp. Suddenly, preppy peeps that called me Avril Lavigne in grade 7 are sporting the checkered kicks, and while it's personally had me confused, I'm ultimately happy that they were able to see their awesomeness.
In any case, many iterations of the classic skate shoe have graced store shelves, like their latest double-sequined style.
