BILLY'S & Vans Revive the "Side Wall Check" Slip-On
The nearly-40-year old style returns.
Japanese sneaker retailer BILLY’S is back with more exclusive Vans styles. Following a laceless Old Skool and two all-over checkerboard Slip-Ons, the pair join for a duo of Slip-Ons emblazoned with a retro “Side Wall Check” pattern. A nod to an original 1979 model, each pair boasts tan and blue/red uppers with tonal checkerboard detailing on the midsole. Small Trademark symbols inside the checkerboards add a subtly playful touch to the throwback models.
Head to the BILLY’S web store for both the blue and red iterations.
Recently, the California-based sneaker brand teased several embroidered “Satin Patchwork” silhouettes.
