Vans Sk8-Hi 38 DX (Anaheim Factory)

The Anaheim Factory Pack refers to the first Vans factory which produced the first sneakers over 50 years ago. The models bear the numbers 44, 36, and 38 which later changed to the legendary names Authentic, Old Skool, and Sk8-Hi. The Vans Anaheim sneakers will be especially appreciated by fans of OG models and fans of stories behind sneakers. Learn more about Vans Anaheim Factory on our blog.

It all began in 1978, when Paul Van Doren wanted to create a similar model to the iconic #36, known today as Vans Old Skool. His goal was to design a functional and high-top shoe that will suit all skateboarders and that will provide a whole new point of view. He succeeded and introduced a new model #38, known as Vans Sk8-Hi, which celebrates its 40th birthday this year! Of course he didn´t forget the legendary sidestripe. Celebrate with us and we´ll leave it to you to pick your style.
