HENRY Davis is a man obsessed with all things Vans - and he has the world’s biggest collection of the iconic skate shoes. Over the years Henry has dedicated his time and money to tracking down rare and old pairs of Vans trainers, he told Truly: “If I were to part with or sell the collection at some point it would be on the level of buying a house.” He has been collecting the shoes and other Vans related products for over twenty years and shows no signs of stopping anytime soon. Storing his collection at his store The Otherside Of The Pillow in Clapton, East London, Henry also has a shop called Pillowheat based in Carnaby St which he describes as: "the global mecca for all things Vans USA, part archive and part commercial vintage store.” Wearing and collecting the shoes bring Henry an immense amount of joy. Truly caught up with Henry at his store in Carnaby St, to see his incredible collection and learn more about what got him hooked on the Vans brand.

This is actually really cool and seems to be a fun hobby 👏🏽💛
Giving back to the needy: fun hobby
How is being overboard obsessive and hoarding your house with pointless shoes is “cool and fun” ?
Khalilah D, you aren't wise at all ....
@@emmarosie7176 he’s a collector, historian and it’s his JOB. Weird comment to make just because you don’t understand it
@@jesseladd6864 imagine thinking hoarding this junk is considering “a collector” lmao
I bought my 5 year old his first pair of vans the other day and it was such a moment 😻
Hi, how’re you doing?
when my dad was a young scruffy surfer/ skater kid in SoCal in the early 60s, he wrote a letter to Vans saying how they should start using Velcro for their shoe laces. to this day he still talks about how he shot himself in the foot (pun intended) by letting his idea go for free haha.
Love seeing this guy pursue a passion + to be able to make money while doing something he loves! Vans shoes are a staple in my wardrobe. My friend had all us bridesmaids wear black sparkly Vans in her wedding!
My son went to his homecoming (only 1) & rocked a checkered bowtie & suspenders, black slacks with solid white vans 🛹. He was so fancy & in his comfort zone. He is now a Marine 💜.
@@BrandyD1777 I bet he looked so great! sounds like he went to homecoming in some serious style + bonus, his feet prob didn't hurt afterward haha. best wishes to your stylish, hardworking son!
@@hesherette Thank you so kindly. He definitely stood out & didn't worry about standards....he just wanted to dance with his highschool sweetheart he had just started dating. Your friends wedding pics have to be awesome. Also, happy to hear you had a down to earth Dad with style ❤️.
My all time favorite pair were purple/gray/purple suede that were brand new at a thrift store for $7.00!! I was so stoked. I bought the kicks and ate top ramen the rest of the week!! Absolutely best decision ever hands down!!
Love this video! He’s such a humble guy that loves Vans. Same my dude. Same
I’m a minimalist, always have been BUT I’d make an exception when it comes to Vans. I’m very envious right now 😅
I first bought a pair of the black and white checkered Vans for a friend over 10 years ago not knowing much about the brand,but in the last 5 yrs I have grown to love them.I have about 4 pairs mostly slip-ons.Love your collection...
I've heard that the, "Key to a happy life is to do what you love." If that's true, then he nailed it 👍
This guy is awesome and it is interesting seeing his collection. Museum quality!
This is awesome!! Now this is a collection I can get behind !!
I love Van's! I'm 39 and still wear them
I always feel like people outside of California don't mess with Vans but I guess I was wrong lol
imagine thinking only one city in the world wears this brand, that’s mad dumb my guy
I was a board 🛹 baby. My son grew up riding. Vans & Hook-ups decorated my boards among some others. I love seeing the classic stuff 👍. I have many stickers of above mentioned on a full length mirror that will always stay with me.
Hi, how’re you doing?
That’s VANTASTIC!

I’m jealous lol
I want to meet this guy
Fuckin right on, man
Does anyone know why Vans shoes doesn't have high reselling price like Nike ones ?.....
Cool guy. I fear for the smell around his house though :p
No matter how you throw a van's shoe, it will always land right side up. Try it!
In the Guinness book of records, mate ?
He’s the Imelda Marcos version.
Nice to see a guy who collects shoes ... instead of the stereotypical woman being interviewed in her huge walk-in closest.
I thought I had loads he wins. I have like over 100 pairs
Mantap 👍👍👍👍👍
This guy has the worlds largest Vans collection but I dont see the pro model shoes from the 90's and 2000's.
What's the point of collecting them or continuing to collect them if you have no way of displaying them all? The majority are still in boxes or just squished together on shelves.
💛💜💯🙏🙏🏾
What does he work as
Damn I bet he has a pair of those melon slip ons that were absolute emo goals
I think bro like Vans

NO ONE CARES IF YOU ARE FIRST IT’S ANNOYING
@@cozypup2011 well you are the one that cares too much whilst you care to reply, plus no need to project your opinion on someone who doesn’t care what you think. If you think it’s annoying, then go somewhere else (just because you have freedom of speech doesn’t give you the excuse to be rude)
Vans are ugly.
well thats why they are cheap
@@user-vj4ih9pp9z bruh walmart shoes look better than vans.
