The Bottom Line
Although there are no specific ‘vegan’ Vans on offer, many of them are not derived from animal products.
Those made with textiles, synthetic materials and canvas are examples of this.
Vans state on its website that once they have managed to certify that products are entirely animal-free, this will be indicated in its product descriptions on their website.
