Kick It Old School With These Eight Old School Kicks

It's a beautiful time to be a shoe fiend. These eight makes and models nailed the style on the first go-round and since fashion now dictates that any decade is the right decade for what's hot right now, pick any one of these shoes and be on your way. 

Vans Authentic SF

You don't have to surf Hermosa Beach to slide on these sunny low tops. With their original 60s style and collapsible heel for easy on/off you'll look like you just rode a gnarly barrel.

Onitsuka Tiger Mexico 66

These now-classic running shoes got their start at the 1968 Olympic pre trials in Mexico City. SInce then, they've been making you look fast even when you're standing still.

Hi Top Chucks

Retro rockers knew the drill. From The Ramones to Nirvana, hi-top Converse have been making disaffection look easy since the 80s (before that they were just basketball shoes).

Adidas Originals Superstar

Run DMC wrote a whole song about Adidas back in 1986 and the three stripes (no hype) kicks look just as good today as they did back then.

Vans Comfycush SK8 HI Reissue

Here's your chance to go old school while giving your feet a bit of modernized comfort. The reissued SK8 Hi style now has a cushioned outsole for cloud-filled stepping.

Globe Los Angered II

Australian-born Globe hasn't been at it quite as long as some of the others on this list, but 1994 is still respectable. Their Los Angered II packs surf casual style into a retro hi top.

Dr. Martens

No member of a 90s alt group was complete without a pair of Docs. Goth, grunge, punk, hesher, everyone needed yellow-stitched, Airwair-soled, eight-holed Dr. Martens.
