  • VANS Marketing Report
    Vans “Off The Wall” Marketing Plan Rajneet Sahota, Prinze Lorenzo, Surya Chaudhary, AJ Diallo, Michael Wang, Pauline Bayiha, Aneil Johal Tagline: Off The Wall ​ Chief Executive Officer: Steve Van Doren ​ Global Vice President of Marketing: Fara Howard ​ I. External and Internal Environment 1. Brief company history: On March 16th, 1966, brothers Paul and Jim Van Doren, along with other co founders, decided to open a company in Anaheim, California which they called Vans. As an executive at one of America’s largest shoe ​ manufacturers, Doren noticed that shoe manufacturers were making pennies per shoe sold, while retailers took home the bulk. With this information, Doren decided to set up his own company that made and sold ​ each shoe. In the early 1980s, after a few successful years in business, ​ Dorens suggested that Vans create shoes for other sports like basketball, running, and breakdancing. However, the expansion did not work and their costs got too high which resulted in them having to file for Bankruptcy. In 1988, a group of investors bought Vans for $60 million, but Doren was sure that the investors did not understand the right way to manufacturer shoes. Sales ended up decreasing and Vans began spiraling downwards. So in the 1990s, Vans shifted its focus from being a manufacturing company to a marketing company. 2. Describe the markets, products, and customers for this firm a. Vans are extremely popular among the skateboarding community. Vans were originally created for the purpose of skateboarding, but have become a lifestyle shoe over time. Vans target market is both men and women, ages ranging from 12-36, but their ideal customers are teenagers.

  • Preliminary Evaluation of Prototype Footwear and Insoles to Optimise Balance and Gait in Older People Hylton B
    Menz et al. BMC Geriatrics (2017) 17:212 DOI 10.1186/s12877-017-0613-2 RESEARCH ARTICLE Open Access Preliminary evaluation of prototype footwear and insoles to optimise balance and gait in older people Hylton B. Menz1,2*, Maria Auhl1 and Shannon E. Munteanu1,2 Abstract Background: Footwear has the potential to influence balance in either a detrimental or beneficial manner, and is therefore an important consideration in relation to falls prevention. The objective of this study was to evaluate balance ability and gait patterns in older women while wearing prototype footwear and insoles designed to improve balance. Methods: Older women (n = 30) aged 65 – 83 years (mean 74.4, SD 5.6) performed a series of laboratory tests of balance ability (postural sway on a foam rubber mat, limits of stability and tandem walking, measured with the Neurocom® Balance Master) and gait patterns (walking speed, cadence, step length and step width at preferred speed, measured with the GAITRite® walkway) while wearing (i) flexible footwear (Dunlop Volley™), (ii) their own footwear, and (iii) prototype footwear and insoles designed to improve dynamic balance. Perceptions of the footwear were also documented using a structured questionnaire. Results: There was no difference in postural sway, limits of stability or gait patterns between the footwear conditions. However, when performing the tandem walking test, there was a significant reduction in step width and end sway when wearing the prototype footwear compared to both the flexible footwear and participants’ own footwear. Participants perceived their own footwear to be more attractive, comfortable, well-fitted and easier to put on and off compared to the prototype footwear.
