In 1966, brothers Paul Van Doren and Jim Van Doren established the company now known as Vans in Anaheim, California. Their innovative approach to marketing gained them, devoted customers, among shoe nerds. Skaters wearing Vans shoes could be seen cruising the streets of California and doing feats as the sport gained popularity in the’70s. While the name “Vans” is still commonly linked with skating, the firm has branched out into other areas, such as casual wear, surfing equipment, ski gear, and more. You may make your own Vans shoes and clothing, so no matter what your own taste is, you’ll be able to find anything at Vans to suit your needs.
