VANS – sort of the be all end all when it comes to skate shoes. Everyone making slip-ons right now seem to be influenced by them one way or another. Here are some options from the brand that started it all.

So good, we couldn’t choose just one – VANS Classic Slip-On has been updated with soft Torino leather and suede in both Dark Slate Blue and Winetasting red. The perfect end-of-summer / almost-Fall transition sneaker that you can wear with shorts or black jeans. Buy them both here. 

American Eagle Outfitters – Embrace your wild side with these AEO Chevron Printed slip-ons. They’re made from soft cotton canvas and they wont break your piggy bank. Buy them through American Eagle Outfitters.

TOMS – An earthier option – these TOMS Freetown Sabados are what happens when a skater and a hippie have a child. Made with a solid canvas toe front and a perforated mid-to-heel. A bold approach to the brands most relaxed style. Also great for those unbearable August heat waves. Buy a pair here.

Calvin Klein – Langston Slip On Shoe is a basic, no fuss option. It’s also the featured item in their advertising campaign. It’s also on sale – so think fast. Purchase here.

J.D. Fisk makes a more futuristic looking slip on. Made in either black or brown leather with a translucent rubber sole. A quirky twist on an already quirky kick. Purchase through MyHabit.

Danner goes full Pacific Northwest with Performance Heritage Collection
Explore the PNW with Danner's new collection
Danner Woodsman Jacket

The Pacific Northwest is one of the most picturesque areas in the United States, maybe the world. The wooded areas are home to countless animal species and the kind of wilderness you can get lost in, both in the good ways like camping, hiking, and forest bathing and in the bad ways where you could never be heard from again. That is why heading out into these woods and experiencing the beautiful dangers of the wilderness requires planning, gear, and, for Danner, the right apparel and footwear. That is why the company dropped the Danner Performance Heritage Collection, which prepares you to face everything the beautiful landscapes offer.

The 46-piece collection contains men's, women's, and unisex pieces ranging from outerwear to pants to hats, keeping you warm, dry, and enjoying every moment outdoors.
