Vans

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.

Vans

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

Shit man. Who leaves sand paper in reach of an evil five year old? I can't even do a grind without my Vans.
Random chick?: Oh my ga-
Crazy Person: YES!! WE FREAKING KNOW! Checkerboards whoopidy doo! IT's OVER.

Vans

Cheap plain skater shoes. Stop saying they have tons of designs. The only designs are the bottom of the shoe which is usually white, and the whites laces. And other Vans have the tip of the shoe colored or some ugly line by the ankle. They're simply just like Converse except they're missing the gay white tip. Most people say they last a lifetime only because those people don't probably skateboard or even doing anything. of course they last a life time they're for going out not for soccer or something athletic.
Vans are white trash sneakers that should be for pedophiles bringing their victims to their vans. You're not cool just because you wear the same brand of Lil Wayne, do you really want to follow a rapper with a voice that belongs in a cartoon and is too high to even notice what hes wearing?

White Trash:Dude you just stepped on my new Vans. Gosh im trying to be cool.
Normal Person: Go fuck yourself
