We know guys who are shoe junkies. They’ll gladly drop hundreds on a pair of Air Yeezy’s or Jordan’s and never wear them. We’re not like that. We prefer having a few pairs that look sweet and won’t leave us with an empty bank account. These H&L Era 59’s from Vans fit both of our criteria. The plaid collar lining is a nice way to make a pair of normally understated kicks stand out, and we dig the leather detailing on the canvas uppers for a bit of a contrast. Plus, at $55, they’ll leave our wallet plump enough to go buy pants to wear them with. You gotta have pants.
