Yesterday I discovered a burgeoning hole in my grey Vans, which has sent me on the hunt for a suitable replacement.

And I found one in these Converse by John Varvatos Vintage Slip-Ons.

Wear the neutral sneakers with simple jersey dresses, wide leg jeans or a pair of navy trousers.

The classic kicks are $28.50 down from $95 at shopbop.com.
