Current Covet: Vans Versa

You know the old saying, "If it's not broke, don't fix it?" Well, that might not ring true in every instance. Let me present to you the Vans Versa. Vans has been making simple skate/surf shoes for close to 50 years. Some of their most popular models are at least 20 to 30 years old. Take a look in an old Thrasher magazine and you will undoubtedly find the kicks still popular today; Authentics, Old Skools, Cabs, Chukkas, etc. Vans has always created new styles, yet these often lacked the credibility of some of their classics. With their new model, the Versa, Vans has taken a classic style and given it a new spin. With a comparative style to much more expensive brands, like Common Projects, this model blows them out of the water at a ~$60 price point. Try as I must, I just can't get away from Vans footwear.
