White sneakers have been a popular trend, and now there’s another version to add to your closet this season: A retro sneaker that has been around for decades is making a comeback.
Vans, which started in the ’60s, is synonymous with the skateboarding culture in California. This fall, A-listers have been wearing the affordable brand in public, Yeezy Shoes showing that the old-school shoes are still as trendy as they were when they first launched 60 years ago. Olivia Wilde, Kaia Gerber, and Emily Ratajkowski are just a few of the celebrities who have worn multiple styles, according to the brand.

Wilde paired her Checkerboard Slip-Ons with loose-fitting jeans and a navy blue sweatshirt, and sneaker-loving model Emily Ratajkowski wore her Classic Tumble Era shoes with jeans and a T-shirt while on the go, showcasing how easy it is to walk around town in the shoes.
