In this illustrated guide, bestselling style writer Josh Sims explores the Vans phenomenon from the brand's overnight success thanks to Sean Penn in Fast Times at Ridgemont High to its status as a style staple worn by the diverse likes of Justin Bieber and Iron Maiden. Through various fortuitous turns and a readiness to ride the wave, Vans's association with skateboarding - an outsider sport gone global - has also proved pivotal in making it one of the most beloved footwear brands across the world.
