The House of Vans is where “Off the Wall” lives.
It’s a place where imagination lets loose over concrete bowls, art installations, workshops and concert stages, inspiring every person who runs, rolls, or stomps through its door. Located in Brooklyn, New York, Chicago, Illinois and Waterloo, London, as well as pop-ups around the world, the House of Vans is home to the creativity that moves us.
Due to unforeseen circumstances House of Vans Toronto has been postponed. We apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused. Stay tuned for more info on when we will be returning to Toronto.
