Vans

Vans was founded in Anaheim, California, by Paul Van Doren along with his partners Jim Van Doren, Gordy Lee, and Serge Delia. The brand was initially named the Van Doren Rubber Company. On March 16th, the brand opened its first store and on the same day, 12 customers purchased shoes, now known as the "Authentic" model, which is characterised by its simple canvas design and sticky rubber sole. The brand also experienced financial challenges due to increased competition and changing consumer preferences. Today it's one of the most valued streetwear brands with a rich history, especially within the skating community. Since its strong connection to the sport Vans has opened indoor skateparks known as “House of Vans” in different locations, providing spaces for skateboarders to practise and engage in cultural events. While skateboarding remains at the core of its identity, Vans has expanded its product range to include various shoe styles, apparel, accessories, and collaborations that cater to a wide range of lifestyles and fashion preferences.
