Vans: Justin Bieber wears the best sneakers for the summer – and they are cheap too
Although Justin Bieber hails from chilly Canada, the artist has already given us an idea of the "perfect" footwear to wear on a sailboat. And no, they're not sandals or Havaianas flip-flops. (The most beautiful sandals for summer can be found here)
Are we surprised that Justin Bieber doesn't want to give up sneakers even on the high seas? No, we're not surprised at all. Considering he skipped state protocol himself and slipped into a pair of Nike Dunk Low 'University Blue' for a meeting with Emmanuel and Brigitte Macron, the President and First Lady of France.
It is also true that the chosen pair is worth it. On the one hand because it's one of the few models that we can buy right now without shelling out the equivalent of the royalties that Bieber will have earned for "Sorry", his most played song on YouTube. On the other hand, because it is the white version of a classic. You know what that means: buy it now, wear it forever.

We are talking about the Vans SK8-HI sneakers, another pair of this brand that is part of Justin Bieber's infinite sneaker collection, along with other references such as the Vans Authentic Anti Social Social Club Get Weird, a collaboration between the in Los Angeles-based streetwear brand, and the Vans x Rhude. But unlike the latter, which you can only find on used platforms at an exorbitant price, Bieber's SK8-HI's only cost 85 euros.
All white - except for the black Vans logo on the tongue - and with a padded high-top, this Bieber version is the elegant and sophisticated sister of the first skateboard high-top sneaker. A pair that was launched in 1978 and later went down in pop culture history as the footwear of the irreverent.
