Yesterday, Christy Turlington Burns was spotted out and about in New York City wearing a pair of Vans Classic Checkerboard Slip-On shoes with an oh-so-chic ensemble. Priced at just $65, these classic Vans are an inexpensive way to add a dash of supermodel-approved, cosmopolitan style to your summer wardrobe.
Turlington Burns paired the clean Vans Classic Checkerboard Slip-On Sneakers in the Turtledove/True White colorway with a polished getup of simple cropped trouser pants, a cornflower blue women’s sweater, Veronica Beard’s Khaki Check Reversible Balan Coat, and a limited edition Clare V. x InStyle caramel leather crossbody bag. Although slip-on Vans are known for their Southern California roots, they make for comfortable women’s walking shoes for city jaunts. The canvas upper of the shoe allows for lightweight breathability for scaling concrete jungles in the heat, and the natural material is easy to clean if the sneakers happen to collect any city grime.

The shoes also have a rubber waffle outsole that provides great traction for strolling around on sidewalks to rocky park paths and through bustling subway stations. The slip-on style makes the shoe extra convenient to throw on for a classic, streamlined look — you can wear the shoes commuting to the office, running errands, or enjoying casual fun in the sun on the weekends.
