Van Doren, who was a chemist, and his older brother Paul began selling custom shoes in 1966 from their first store in Anaheim. The brothers only had sample shoes and their made-to-order shoes were often made with the canvas material and patterns brought in by customers.
OBITUARY
ASSOCIATED PRESS
James Van Doren, the cofounder of Vans canvas shoes that were embraced by the skateboard culture and became a nationwide sensation when Sean Penn wore a checkerboard pair in the 1982 movie "Fast Times at Ridgemont High", has died. He was 72.
Van Doren died of cancer at his Fullerton home on Oct. 12, his wife Char told The Associated Press on Thursday.
By the early 1980s, foreign competition in the athletic shoe business led to heavy losses, prompting the company to file for bankruptcy protection. A court-ordered management shake-up in 1984 led to the departure of James.
Four years later, an investment banking company bought Vans, which has been sold several times since.
As for James Van Doren, loyalty to the American-man shoe never waned. His wife says he wore Van deck shoes "every day of his life."
Control was returned to Paul, who came out of semi-retirement to run the then-Orange-Countybased firm.
Char Van Doren said. "The checkerboard pattern skyrocketed after that."
"I know where he is: He's still in my heart and he's with God," his widow said.
The Vans office is now in Cypress, where several Van Doren family members still work.
Van Doren's body was cremated and his ashes may be scattered in Hawaii. A memorial Mass is planned Friday morning at Fullerton's St. Juliana Falconieri Catholic Church.
Besides his wife, Van Doren is survived by sons James Jr., Mark and Eric; brothers Paul and Robert and sister Bernice Chute.
