Vans may be the preferred sneaker brand for skateboarders, but its reach has extended far beyond that, making Vans a popular and cool sneaker across the globe. In fact, in 2016, Vans marked its 50th Anniversary and launched a new logo: Vans “Off the Wall” and a campaign to let people know it was much more than just a brand for skateboarders, but a sneaker for everyone. 

At Rack Room Shoes, we carry a wide selection of Vans sneakers, including men’s, women’s, and kids’ Vans sneakers. Get high-top Vans, low-top Vans, Vans slip-ons, or so many more Vans shoes. Wear the retro, Asher Slip-On Sneaker – like the checkerboard sneaker worn by Sean Penn in 1982’s “Fast Times at Ridgemont High” which gave Vans national recognition. Or sport the popular Ward sneaker for the iconic style that comes in various colorways and patterns to choose from – Julia Roberts, Dakota Fanning, Gwen Stefani, and Bella Hadid are just some of the celebrities sporting this style. You can also select the Doheny or Atwood sneaker or try the Filmore high top sneaker for classic lace-up looks. Need a lift and an on-trend style? – Try Vans platform sneakers. Plus, we have many more to step up your individual style. And, just so you know, it’s easy to clean your Vans sneakers by using a toothbrush with soapy water to clean the tops, sides, and rubber outsole, then apply a damp cloth to wipe them down (getting rid of any lingering soap bubbles) and air dry.
Vans started out as The Van Doren Rubber Company, founded in 1966 by James and Paul Van Doren and Gordon C. Lee, in Anaheim, California. With great enthusiasm for the shoes among skateboarders and aficionados of alternative sports such as snowboarding, surfing, BMX and motocross, the sneakers gained popularity as they were cool, comfortable, simple and affordable. Starting in 1999 and through 2018, The brand was the primary sponsor for the annual Vans Warped Tour, a traveling rock festival. As of 2004, Vans merged into VF Corporation and offers an array of lifestyle products including clothing, footwear and accessories, too.
