My first pair were bought out of the back of a truck at a BMX track in 1979. Whoever cleans out my shit when I'm dead will probably find some Vans to dispose of.

Quoted: My old pair is wore out. Was shopping for a new pair and my 17yo daughter says no way I’m too old (41). I call bullshit. Never too old for a good pair of Vans. Never too old. Tell her if she says that to you again, you're going to find her a step-mother that's 19. |

Quote HistoryQuoted: I thought this thread was going to be about the practicality of driving a van. Would not be caught in one driving as a POV, but for work vehicles they and minivans rule! I figured out the real purpose of an accelerator pump on a carb was to pack the muffler full of a nice rich mix of gas and air. Turn off the key (and hope to the steering wheel didn't lock up  ), pump the fuck out of the gas pedal, then turn the key back on. The entire city took cover in the fucking basement. Blew the damn exhaust system clean apart one night, which ended the reign of terror. |

Quote HistoryQuoted: When I was a skater punk only posers wore Vans. Airwalk and Vision Streetwear were the shoes of choice. Now at 46yo I have a pair of all black Vans. I no longer skate because falling hurts but my kid is a regular at the skatepark. I kinda feel like I remember everyone wearing converse and vans all the time. You only had airwalks if you had money. Even when airwalks became really popular in the 90s lots of people wore vans. |

I started wearing them the summer between Kindergarten and 1st grade. Back then they were made basically local to me and they would have a huge sale on merchandise that hadn’t been picked up, at the LA County Fair. My mom would come home with oddball color combos that none of my friends had seen.
I’m close to 50 now and I’d definitely still wear them but I mostly wear Chucks. |
