Add a classic look to your back-to-school styles with this Vans Premium Old Skool shoe.
  • Vans released a Premium Old Skool shoe inspired by a Chanel bag that quickly sold out.
  • The Premium Old Skool shoe is available in almost 40 colors and patterns.
  • The Old Skool design remains a popular retro style choice.

Worn or high-fashion? Vans just rereleased this pair of Premium Old Skool shoes that were (seemingly) inspired by Chanel's On the Pavements graffiti messenger bag, and they sold out within hours. But, the brand's Premium 'Old Skool' shoes are still available in nearly 40 different color waves and patterns.

While it pains my millennial heart to refer to anything I've ever worn as classic, these Vans shoes absolutely are and there's a reason why they're still such a beloved style. With a brand rooted in 1960's skate culture, the Old Skool design is classically retro—and judging by the demand, still very much in style. With so many colors to choose from, they're perfect for any back-to-school shoe you may need.

Here's how to shop the Vans Premium Old Skool shoe collection:
