List of products by brand VANS

Vans, one of the UK's most recognizable brands, is undeniably iconic. The Vans story dates back to March 1966, when two brothers, Paul and Jim Van Doren, joined forces with Serge Delia and Gordon Lee to found the Van Doren Rubber Company. The No. 44 (now Authentic) skate shoe was born. By 1974, the skateboarding community was embracing its rugged look and grippy sole, ensuring flexibility and traction. In 1976, the Vans No. 95 (now The Era), featuring padded collars and color combinations, was released and quickly became a hit. The classic Vans "Off The Wall" logo also made its first appearance that year. Building on its success, the No. 36 (now Old Skool) was released in 1977, the first skate shoe to combine leather and textile. Paul Van Doren's "Jazz Stripe" doodle also appears on this shoe and becomes a symbol of the Vans brand. 1977 was a big year for Vans as it also saw the release of the Vans #98 (The Classic Slip On) which, with the help of BMX riders and skateboarders, quickly became THE slip-on shoe to have... which is still true today.
