14 Best Sneakers to Wear This Winter (Or on the Impending Doomsday)

BEST WINTER SNEAKERS TO ESCAPE THE ZOMBIE APOCALYPSE

The world seems to be spiraling out of control. An apocalyptic-like event seems all the more plausible every time I look at Twitter. In addition, the climate is out of whack. I know I am not the only one noticing this. One day it’s 80 degrees and sunny. The next it is 20 degrees and snowing. I wouldn’t be surprised if one day it just started snowing on Southern California’s perfect beaches.

We at Highlark thought it would be a good idea to prepare a list of the perfect sneakers to wear this winter should you have to run away from any zombies or Russian spies or wear when the temperature goes below 32 degrees. Whether or not climate change is a hoax perpetrated by the Chinese (or scientists), we all still need some kickass kicks that are probably made in… China.

Here is our list:


[1] Vans Pro Skate ArcAd Powell Peralta x Taka Hayashi

Sure everyone and their mother are literally wearing Vans these days, but even the contrarians would want to cop these.
