Vans

Skate shoes for those who do not skate.

Shoes mostly worn by skaters. They are not that expensive, lots of designs, comfortable as hell, and will last you a really long time. All all around great shoes. Also just because one wears vans and doesn't skate does not make them a poser, unless they claim to skate but they don't. I don't skateboard at all, I wear them because of the reasons I listed earlier. They are just shoes people come on

a good pair of shoes, so what if soo many people wear them, you shouldn't worry about what other people wear, most new vans coming out today have snazzy designs that fit almost anybodys personality, ALSO you don't have to be some different label to buy them, you just have to be a person looking for a good deal on a pair of shoes that will last you a while.

Vans are a skate shoe

Skater shoes worn by skater, ex-skaters, people going to start skating, people who hang with skaters, or people that just want to look cool so wear the shoes (which makes up most of the majority)

Vans are a popular shoe brand created in 1966 by Paul and Jim Van Doren in Aneheim, California. Originally sold as deck shoes for sailors, the idea was that one could customize their shoes to order, with whatever fabric or foxing color you wanted. The shoes became very popular in the Surf, and later Skate, communities and are today renowned as a Skate shoe company. The company has many popular designs, such as the Authentic (originally the #44), the slip-on, the Old-Skool, the Half-Cab, and the Sk8-hi. The shoes have remained popular since pretty much their conception, and are some of the nicest, most durable shoes out there. Vans are worn by pretty much anyone under the sun, but are especially popular in Skate, Ski/Snowboard, Surf, BMX , and Heavy Metal communities. The shoe has also become synonymous with Basics and Posers in recent times, and it is sad to see such capable shoes being used by people who will never use them to their full potential. The shoes were also slandered by a certain meme, which I won't mention, but I'm sure you know the name of. In conclusion, Vans are continually popular, and are extremely useful and good-looking, shoes.

1.)The only way I can stay on my CRAPPy SKATE BOARD because the DAMN GRAIN covers only HALF the fruity tooty deck because my DUMB ASS little cousin found sandpaper.

2.) Their slip ons made checkerboards overly worn and used

3.) If a tornado blows through your house make sure you're wearing these
