Why does Vans have no creative direction in terms of clothing, it is all so plain especially when it’s taken into consideration that VF corp owns brands such as Supreme who are skater oriented as well with much better quality of designs.

As the company is falling off I’m wondering if they will try to branch out.

    Vans is for the shoes. I feel like they make clothes because I’m sure it’s another stream of revenue for them but they’re known for their shoes. Same thing with a brand like Timberland. You go to the Timberland store and it’s filled with overpriced made in China Timberland branded hoodies and sweatpants. We all know the boots are where it’s at but people will still pay for the clothes even if they are shit, which they usually are. I own a some random Vans clothing items but purely because I liked the look. I just don’t expect superior quality from their clothing.
