Urban Footwear Spring 2014: Vans


If you're a true sneakerhead or just into dope urban footwear, then you definitely know about Vans. Based out of California, Vans have been around since March 16, 1966 - that's 48 years! Wow! Once known mainly just for their flat bottom two-toned shoes popular on California beaches, Vans' products, sold worldwide, have evolved over the years to also include clothing and accessories for men and women. Now that spring is right around the corner, like many companies, Vans have already revealed their Spring 2014 shoe collections which include my favorites, "Vans California", the "Van Doren" series, "Vans X Della", the "Vans OTW Collection", "Vans LXVI", and "Vans Old Skool". Also, be on the lookout for "The Yellow Submarine Vans Collection", a very special first time ever footwear collaboration between Vans and The Beatles, due to be released on March 1, 2014. This collection will consist of four different shoes featuring artwork from the Yellow Submarine movie and album. Now, here are just a few images of some of my favorites from the Vans Spring 2014 collections available right now online and in select retail stores. Check them out! If you like what you see, get a jump on your fashion game for the spring 2014 season
and pick up a pair or two for yourself!
