Vans Classic Slip-On

In 1976, the Vans Slip On was developed as model 44 in collaboration with skateboarders and BMX riders in California and quickly proved to be a bestseller. The wild youth in SoCal especially loved the simple canvas low tops with the famous no-slip waffle sole. This rubber sole provides exceptional grip due to its unique honeycomb structure, making it perfect for skating. The sneaker itself hasn't changed much since the 70s. While new collections continually surprise with new color variations and materials, the image remains the same: rebellious!.
