51 Vans Varieties

From Comic Book Shoes to Hippy Colored Canvas Sneakers

— December 16, 2012 — Fashion
Vans is a brand with so many variations of shoes it's astounding: from comic book shoes featuring iconic heroes to throwback tie dye colorways.

There's really no place Vans can't go with their canvas shoes. The look itself is so iconic, low key and simple that it's a perfect canvas (pun intended) for crazy colors and interesting patterns.

Here we see a pop-art collaboration with Supreme that includes Campbell's Soup can prints. This is a reference to the wildly popular Andy Warhol paintings of the early 1960s.

Vans has also touched on other pop culture figures with their comic book shoes featuring classic characters.

Vans is one of the most classic US sneaker brands and has been in business since it opened the first store in 1966.
