The Vans Slip-On
Vans' Classic Slip-On footwear gained immense popularity after being introduced in 1977, leveraging Vans' decade of expertise in their design. Founder Paul Van Doran set out to improve board-feel, grip, and durability, developing the brand into a global phenomenon.
Designed from 18 pieces, the Slip-On was inspired by boat shoes, and epitomises Vans' style and versatility.
The brand showcases its commitment to innovation with technologies such as ComfyCush™ and Duracap® for tailored performance. By varying their range of materials from canvas to leather, and featuring iconic patterns like Checkboard, Vans truly has something for everyone in their Slip-on line-up.

Vans Slip-On Checkerboard Print
As one of Vans' most iconic designs, the checkerboard print is renowned throughout the world. Steve Van Doren, son of Paul, noticed skateboarders coloring their shoes' midsoles with a checkerboard pattern after discovering the Slip-On style #48. By incorporating the pattern into the Slip-Ons' canvas upper, he created the famous design.
The checkerboard pattern was also used as a symbol of racial unity by groups like The Specials during Britain's 'two-tone' ska music movement. Vans checkerboard Slip-Ons became a favorite among subculture fans because of this cultural resonance.
