On the front there is a colorful graphic with a redesigned print of the iconic checkerboard pattern and a citrus fruit motif, which refers to Lizzie's Californian roots. The whole thing is made of thick cotton jersey.
Lizzie Armanto embodies the true spirit of creative expression in all forms. The word "first" often appears in her extensive career - for example, she is the first woman to appear on the cover of TransWorld SKATEboarding magazine; one of the first women on the cover of Thrasher magazine in many years; the first woman to perform the vertical loop made famous by Tony Hawk. Additionally, she was part of the talented team that competed in the skateboarding competition debuting at the 2021 Tokyo Olympics. Lizzie is a true pioneer and role model. Vans and Lizzie showcase innovative changes and proudly offer unique solutions for a new generation of skaters.

ABOUT THE BRAND
VANS was founded in 1966 by brothers Paul and Jim Van Doren and Gordon Lee and Serge Delia as The Van Doren Rubber Company in Anaheim, California. The first shoes to be created were Vans #44, now known as Authentic. In 1976, Vans #95, now known as Era, was created, designed by Tony Alva and Stacey Peralta. In the same year, the Vans "Off the Wall" logo appears. In 1977, Vans #36, Old Skool, and #98, Slip-On, were released. A year later, #38 - Sk8-Hi is created. In 1988, Vans signed by Steve Caballero were presented - the legendary Half Caby. In 2001, Vans helped produce "Dogtown and Z-Boys," a film that gave Stacy Peralta a look at the early days of skateboarding and the personalities that shaped the sport. The film receives the audience award and the directing award at the Sundance Film Festival. In 2010, Vans opens House of Vans Brooklyn, a retail and event space in New York, and in 2014 opens House of Vans in London. In May 2015, Vans makes skateboarding history with the release of the highly anticipated PROPELLER: A Vans Skateboarding Video, the first skateboarding video from Vans. This unique event catapulted Team Vans Pro Skate to international prominence and further highlighted the importance of the Vans brand to the history of skateboarding. PROPELLER becomes the fastest-selling skateboarding video on iTunes.
