VANS
Born in Anaheim, California, in 1966, Vans started as a small family-run business crafting rugged, sticky-soled sneakers for skaters. What began with the now-iconic Authentic quickly evolved into a full-fledged movement, with styles like the Era, Old Skool, and Sk8-Hi becoming staples in skate parks and city streets alike. Adopted by musicians, BMX riders, and counterculture icons, Vans represents a DIY spirit that transcends trends. Whether it’s the classic checkerboard slip-ons or bold new collaborations, Vans continues to ride the fine line between heritage and progression, proving that Off The Wall is more than just a slogan - it’s a way of life.
