Vans Shoes, Sneakers & Slip Ons

What started out in a small storefront in Southern California in the late 1960s is now a global shoe empire of youthful skate style: Vans shoes. Vans skate shoes defined the era of the 1970s. Professional skateboarding took off with the Z-Boys from Dogtown in Venice Beach, California. Pioneers of professional skateboarding, Stacy Peralta and Tony Alva designed their own Vans high-top sneakers. Preferring the grippy rubber outsoles and stylish canvas of Vans shoes, history was made.

Surfers, skaters and professional BMXers to this day sport authentic Vans slipons, high- and low-top sneakers. What began as simple, classic colors of black, white and red, and high-top and low-top styles have evolved. The Vans Atwood, Asher, Ward, and checkerboard slipons have taken over the Vans shoes name with stylish appeal and a wide variety of new colors. Logo, floral, checkered Vans shoes are in right now. Mixing comfort, performance, and cool style, classic Vans sneakers are here to stay.
