Description: If you love Vans and their history the next paragraph is for you. The Needlepoint and canvas lining in these shoes is perfect with no obvious signs of wear. Unless you have these conserved by a professional or refurbished by Vans themselves, they shouldn't be worn and are being sold for display only. The Van Doren heel patch inside is curling and needs to he re-laid. I found these without laces and chose not to disrespect them with modern ones; they deserve a pair new dead stock vintage laces. The original Vans were made by the Van Doren Company. Paul Van Doren's customers nicknamed them Vans and history was made. These OOAK sneakers were stitched from a kit the owner bought from the Van Doren company then returned to the company, when the stitchery was completed, to be made into sneakers. Each design was created specifically by and hand worked by the buyer, making every pair of these rare sneaks a genuine work of art. Step back in time with these vintage Vans Van Doren needlepoint shoes. The sneakers are adorned with daisies and rainbows, perfectly capturing 60's hippy organic vibe. These may be from the 70's but the toes are almond shaped enough it's a hard call. Made from 100% wool, these shoes are a rare find and a must-have for collectors. They come in a women's size 7.5.
