Crocs, Nike, and Other Brands Join In on #VansChallenge Hype

Vans, a popular brand amongst skateboarders but loved by many, has been trending on Twitter for the last few days. Vans sponsors many extreme sports such as surfing, BMX, snowboarding, and motocross. However, the most extreme activity that Vans has been participating in recently is the #VansChallenge.

All you have to do is take your pair of Vans and toss them. They should land right side up. Many were dumbfounded and ran to their closest pair to toss them up in the air. Even Vans World HQ dedicated time to toss dozens of pairs of Vans in the air.

As Vans enjoyed their moment for a few days, Mythbusters swarmed to prove the shoe wrong. Many talked about how their Nike shoes or Converse also land the correct way up. No brand was more surprising than Crocs.

How many other brands’ shoes land face up when thrown? We have no clue, but we do know that throwing your shoes to land face up is nostalgic of the water bottle challenge. So what’s flipping next?
