It all started in 1978, when Paul Van Doren wanted to create a counterpart to the iconic #36, now known as the Vans Old Skool. His goal was to design a functional and tall shoe that would suit all skaters and give them a whole new look. He succeeded and introduced us to the new model #38, simultaneously known as the Vans Sk8-Hi, which has already celebrated its 40th birthday! Of course, he didn't forget about the legendary sidestripe.
