I'm so glad the classic and comfy VANS footwear is now back in the Philippines. I used to have a few pairs of these from way back when... As a teener, I loved these sneakers 'coz it goes well with almost every piece of clothing I own. I am a t-shirt and jeans/shorts person (even now) and during my time, it was this basic slip-on that is the staple footwear.

Now, it has been replaced by the popular (though I wonder why) flip flops or Havaianas, which, for the life of me, I can't understand why they are so pricey. Hey, it's no more than the regular rubber house slippers! Crocs, I can understand, but flip flops?! (no offense meant, just objective observation)
Back then, Vans shoes mostly come in solid colors and a few other styles. It was as basic as the slippers and each and every teenager I know would always have at least a pair.
And now, they are back... with a vengeance...
For there are a lot more in store for the young and "young at heart."

There are these cute printed ones, for a start...
And Vans Tees, which are so artistically-designed, by the way...
Not to mention bags, bags, bags...
I'm pretty sure people of my generation would be thrilled to know that they can once again slip into a pair of this good ol' sneakers (and more)... I am!
