The ultimate California cool sneaker is making a comeback.
In March, Vans is bringing back one of its most popular slip-ons: a version of their classic black and white checkerboard shoes
Named the “Fast Times” after the 1982 cult hit “Fast Times at Ridgemont High,” these new old-style shoes are almost identical to the pair that goofy surfer boy Jeff Spicoli (Sean Penn) wore in the movie. The shoes are actually a remake of the limited-edition pairs given away at the film’s Hollywood premiere.
The slip-ons have black-and-white squares on the tongue and heel, and the words “Fast Times” in red print wrapped around the sole. They’ll be available for a limited time on the Vans website and in select stores next month.
