Okay, so I’ve been seeing this Vans x Proenza Schouler thing popping up everywhere, and I finally caved and got myself a pair. I went for the ecru color, ’cause you know, gotta keep it classy.
First off, let me tell you, these are not your average Vans. They’re like, the puffy jacket version of the classic slip-ons. I mean, the proportions are kinda crazy, but in a good way, you feel me? It’s like walking on clouds, but make it fashion.
Unboxing Day
The day they arrived, I ripped open that box like a kid on Christmas morning. And there they were, all snug and puffy. The leather is super soft, not stiff at all. I slipped them on, and oh boy, instant comfort.
Style Test
- Outfit 1: I paired them with some wide-leg jeans and a simple white tee. The shoes definitely stood out, which I loved. It was giving off that effortless, “I just threw this on” vibe, but like, in a stylish way.
- Outfit 2: Next, I tried them with a midi skirt and a chunky sweater. It was a bit more dressed up, but the shoes still worked. They added this cool, unexpected twist to the whole look.
- Outfit 3: Finally, I just wore them around the house with my comfies. And guess what? They were perfect for that too. Like, I felt stylish even when I was just chilling.
Final Thoughts
So, are these puffy slip-ons worth the hype? In my humble opinion, heck yeah! They’re comfy, they’re stylish, and they’re different. Plus, they come in black and resin too, so you’ve got options. If you’re looking to step up your shoe game, I’d say give these a try. You might just fall in love like I did. And seriously, that ecru color? Chef’s kiss! They’re kind of a big deal, and I totally get why now.
I took some pictures and tried them on with various outfits, and I gotta say, I was feeling myself. It was a fun process, trying to see how such a statement shoe could fit into my everyday style. And I think I nailed it, if I do say so myself.
If you see me rocking these on the streets, don’t be shy, come say hi! Let’s talk about how we’re both obsessed with these shoes.
