fall kicks (or skids or slorps)

{Vans Classic Slip-Ons in Suede; jeans: 7 For All Mankind (bought last year, similar here and here}

Well, first of all, they’re not called "sneakers" anymore. Apparently, they’re called "kicks" or "skids" and I think I heard somebody say "slorps". - Chandler Bing, Friends

I have a few pairs of Vans and I have to stop myself from buying every colour, pattern, etc. that I come across, but when I saw these brown suede ones on the Madewell site there was no question I was going to buy them.  The colour is perfect for fall and will go great with the pieces I've been buying lately.  Plus, I needed a new pair of sneakers, sorry, kicks since it's starting to get a little too cold for sandals and now that I'm a stay-at-home mom, sneakers, darn it(!), kicks are a must-have.
