Off The Wall

Off The Wall- Since 1966

Vans is a global footwear and apparel brand founded in 1966 in Anaheim, California by Paul Van Doren. Originally known for making durable shoes sold directly to customers, Vans quickly became a favorite within the skateboarding community thanks to its signature waffle sole and rugged design. Deeply rooted in skate, surf, and music culture, the brand has grown into a worldwide symbol of creativity, individuality, and self-expression. Staying true to its heritage, Vans continues to embody its iconic spirit: “Off The Wall.”

Brand History

Founded in 1966 in Anaheim, California, Vans began as a small shop making shoes fresh each morning for its customers. What started as a simple idea quickly found its place on the streets, as skaters embraced Vans for its grip, durability, and laid-back style.

From those early days, Vans grew alongside skate, surf, and music culture, becoming more than just a shoe—it became a symbol of self-expression.

Decades later, the spirit remains the same: Off The Wall since ’66.
