A Buyers Guide to Vans Shoes For Skateboarding



If you have ever heard of skateboarding, then you have no doubt heard of Vans Shoes. Founded in 1966 by Paul Van Doren withhis partners Jim Van Doren, Gordy Lee and Serge D'Elia, the first shoes were designed with a diamond pattern over the entire sole. A decade later skateboarders and skaters began to wear their shoes and looked for different colours.
This evolved into first Vans Era shoes which is still sold today.
Today, Vans shoes feature over 70 styles; ranging from slip-ons and performance based skateboard shoes build for high durability and strength. Vans product range also covers many extreme sports including snowboarding apparel as well as skateboarding and beach wear.

Two of the most featured Vans Shoes is the Era shoe and the Vans Slip-on. Released in a bright array of colours and patterns, these shops are still as popular today as they were when originally made.
Other standout shoes in the range include the Vans Authentic shoes and the 106 Vulcanized shoes which is an organic canvas skate shoe with rubber soles and canvas lining. A die-cut polyurethane sockliner and arch cookie provide added support for any skater who wants to ride hard.

Quality and durability are the trademarks of the brand, which are designed to be used rather than just worn. Vans maintain their brand's reputation by ensuring their products are designed to be relevant to the sport and market as much as possible. Such shoes are constructed to high quality standards and so will take all the falls and scraps that skateboarding and snowboarding throw at you. Van's sponsors many of the leading competitors in the X sports who actually help in designing this superior footwear.
