With Vans’ 50th anniversary celebrations coming up this weekend, the company have dropped 5 animated edits entitled ‘The Story of Vans’. Covering music, art, fashion and obviously skateboarding/surfing/snowboarding, with a main clip voiced by Jeff Grosso and featuring some dope visuals, these are definitely worth a watch.
