Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements Disclosure | Note A Basis of Presentation VF Corporation (and its subsidiaries, collectively known as VF) operates and reports using a 52/53 week fiscal year ending on the Saturday closest to December 31 of each year. For presentation purposes herein, all references to periods ended September 2009, December 2008 and September 2008 relate to the fiscal periods ended on October 3, 2009, January 3, 2009 and September 27, 2008, respectively. The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X and do not include all of the information and notes required by generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) in the United States of America for complete financial statements. Similarly, the December 2008 consolidated balance sheet was derived from audited financial statements but does not include all disclosures required by GAAP. In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements contain all normal and recurring adjustments necessary to make a fair statement of the consolidated financial position, results of operations and cash flows of VF for the interim periods presented. Operating results for the three and nine months ended September 2009 are not necessarily indicative of results that may be expected for any other interim period or for the year ending January 2, 2010. For further information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and notes included in VFs Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 2008 (2008 Form 10-K). Certain prior year amounts, none of which are material, have been reclassified to conform with the 2009 presentation. |

Changes in Accounting Policies [Abstract] | |
Schedule of New Accounting Pronouncements and Changes in Accounting Principles | Note B Changes in Accounting Policies In June 2009, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued the FASB Accounting Standards Codification (the ASC) as the source of authoritative U.S. GAAP recognized by the FASB to be applied to nongovernmental entities. The ASC also recognizes rules and interpretive releases of the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) as authoritative GAAP for SEC registrants. The ASC, which became effective in the third quarter of 2009, supersedes all existing non-SEC accounting and reporting standards but does not change U.S. GAAP. Accordingly, references to standards issued prior to the codification have been replaced with a description of the applicable accounting guidance. During the first quarter of 2009, VF adopted the FASBs new accounting guidance on business combinations. The new guidance revises how business combinations are accounted for, both at the acquisition date and in subsequent periods. The new guidance changes the accounting model for a business acquisition from a cost allocation standard to recognition of the fair value of the assets and liabilities of the acquired business, regardless of whether a 100% or a lesser controlling interest is acquired. During the first quarter of 2009, VF adopted the FASBs new accounting guidance on noncontrolling interests in consolidated financial statements. The new guidance requires information about the entity as a whole, with separate information relating to the parent or controlling owners and to the noncontrolling (minority) interests, and provides guidance on the accounting for transactions between an entity and noncontrolling interests. Upon adoption of the new guidance, the FASB requires retroactive treatment for the presentation and disclosure requirements, with all other requirements to be applied prospectively. Accordingly, for VFs previously issued financial statements: Noncontrolling interests in subsidiaries were reclassified from Other Liabilities to a separate component of Stockholders Equity. Consolidated net income was adjusted to separately present net income attributable to noncontrolling interests. Consolidated comprehensive income was adjusted to separately present comprehensive income attributable to noncontrolling interests. During the first quarter of 2009, VF adopted new accounting guidance issued by the FASB for derivative instruments and hedging activities. The new guidance requires expanded disclosures related to (i) how and why an entity uses derivative instruments, (ii) how derivative instruments and related hedged items are accounted for and (iii) how derivative instruments and related hedged items affect an entitys financial position, operating results and cash flows. See Note N. During the first quarter of 2009, VF adopted the FASBs new accounting guidance for fair value measurements. The new guidance requires quarterly disclosures (rather than just annually) of the fair value of financial assets and liabilities. See Note M. During the first quarter of 2009, VF adopted the FASBs new accounting guidance on the determination of the useful life of intangible assets. The new guidance amends the fa |

Acquisitions [Abstract] | |
Schedule of Business Acquisitions, by Acquisition | Note C Acquisition On March 11, 2009, VF completed the acquisition of Mo Industries Holdings, Inc. (Mo Industries), owner of the Splendid and Ella Moss brands of premium sportswear marketed to upscale department and specialty stores. This transaction resulted in VF acquiring the remaining two-thirds equity of Mo Industries for a purchase price of $160.8 million (consisting of $156.1 million of cash and $4.7 million of notes) and payment of $52.3 million of debt. In June 2008, VF had acquired one-third of the outstanding equity of Mo Industries for $77.4 million. The agreement included put/call rights to acquire the remaining equity during the first half of 2009 at a price based on the acquired companys earnings. The initial investment was recorded in Other Assets and was accounted for using the equity method of accounting. The carrying value of the investment was $80.5 million at the time of the March 2009 acquisition, consisting of the initial cost of the investment, plus the equity in net income of the investment to the date of acquisition. In accordance with authoritative guidance, VF recognized a gain in the first quarter of $0.3 million from remeasuring its one-third interest in Mo Industries to fair value. The gain was included in Miscellaneous Income in VFs Consolidated Statement of Income. Mo Industries is being reported as part of the Contemporary Brands Coalition. The following table summarizes the amounts of tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed (including the fair value of the prior one-third equity investment) that were recognized at the date of acquisition: In thousands Cash and equivalents $ 5,244 Other tangible assets 18,234 Intangible assets -- indefinite-lived 98,900 Intangible assets -- amortizable 115,700 Goodwill 142,361 Total assets acquired 380,439 Current liabilities 7,384 Other liabilities, primarily deferred income taxes 79,038 Total liabilities assumed 86,422 Net assets acquired 294,017 Fair value of VF's prior equity investment 80,854 Purchase of two-thirds equity interest $ 213,163 Acquired intangible assets consisted of trademarks and customer relationships. Management believes the Splendid and Ella Moss trademarks have indefinite lives. Customer relationship intangible assets are being amortized using an accelerated method over their 18 year useful life. Factors that contributed to the recognition of Goodwill included (i) expected growth rates and profitability of the acquired business, (ii) the ability to expand the brands within their markets and to new markets, (iii) an experienced workforce, (iv) VFs strategies for growth in sales, income and cash flows and (v) expected synergies with existing VF business units. None of the Goodwill is expected to be deductible for income tax purposes. Amounts of Mo Industries revenues and pretax earnings included in VFs Consolidated Statements of Income for the third quarter were $20.0 million and $4.2 million and since the date of acquisition were $41.7 million and $8.5 million, respectively.

Sale of Accounts Receivable [Abstract] | |
Sale of Accounts Receivable Disclosure | Note D Sale of Accounts Receivable During September 2009, VF entered into an agreement to sell selected trade accounts receivable, on a revolving basis, to a financial institution. This agreement covers the sale of up to $105.0 million of accounts receivable on a nonrecourse basis. After the sale, VF continues to service and collect these accounts receivable on behalf of the financial institution but does not retain any other interests in the receivables. Net proceeds of this accounts receivable sale program are recognized in the Statement of Consolidated Cash Flows as part of the change in accounts receivable in cash from operations. By the end of September, VF sold $57.6 million of accounts receivable at their stated value, and accordingly accounts receivable in the September 2009 Consolidated Balance Sheet was reduced by that amount. The funding fee charged by the financial institution for this program, which was not significant for the period ended September 2009, is recorded in Miscellaneous Expense. Proceeds from this transaction were contributed to our defined benefit pension plan to improve its funded status; see Note G. |

The fair value of identified intangible assets is based on expected cash flows at the respective acquisition dates. These expected cash flows consider the stated terms of the rights or contracts acquired and expected renewal periods, if applicable. The number of renewal periods considered is based on managements experience in renewing or extending similar arrangements, regardless of whether the acquired arrangements have explicit renewal or extension provisions. Trademark intangible assets represent individual acquired trademarks, some of which are registered in more than 100 countries. Because of the significant number of trademarks, renewal of those rights is an ongoing process, with individual trademark renewals ranging from 7 to 14 years and averaging 10 years. License intangible assets relate to numerous licensing contracts, with VF as either the licensor or licensee. Individual license renewals range from 3 to 5 years, with an average of 4 years. Costs incurred to renew or extend the lives of recognized intangible assets are not significant and are expensed as incurred. Amortization expense of intangible assets for the third quarter and nine months of 2009 was $10.7 million and $30.0 million, respectively. Estimated amortization expense for the remainder of 2009 is $10.9million and for the years 2010 through 2013 is $39.3 million, $36.5million, $34.4million and $32.9 million, respectively. |

Financial information for VFs reportable segments is as follows: Three Months Nine Months Ended September Ended September In thousands 2009 2008 2009 2008 Coalition revenues: Outdoor and Action Sports $ 904,625 $ 906,608 $ 2,021,095 $ 2,066,351 Jeanswear 664,801 743,180 1,877,605 2,101,635 Imagewear 221,246 260,099 643,203 748,384 Sportswear 149,050 143,672 356,935 398,256 Contemporary Brands 124,009 120,550 328,611 329,991 Other 30,075 32,518 77,468 85,833 Total coalition revenues $2,093,806 $ 2,206,627 $ 5,304,917 $ 5,730,450 Coalition profit: Outdoor and Action Sports $ 209,051 $ 188,621 $ 364,310 $ 352,762 Jeanswear 110,782 122,868 266,699 323,499 Imagewear 19,521 40,757 61,476 104,529 Sportswear 23,576 15,491 35,003 32,078 Contemporary Brands 7,503 12,695 23,946 40,011 Other 912 (994) 283 (3,008) Total coalition profit 371,345 379,438 751,717 849,871 Corporate and other expenses (52,949) (29,904) (149,492) (89,541) Interest, net (20,905) (22,875) (63,409) (64,820) Income before income taxes $ 297,491 $ 326,659 $ 538,816 $ 695,510 Operating results of the John Varvatos business unit for 2008 have been reclassified from the Sportswear Coalition to the Contemporary Brands Coalition consistent with a change in internal management beginning in 2009. Defined benefit pension plans in the United States are centrally managed. Coalition Profit includes only the current year service cost component of pension cost. Other components of pension cost totaling $20.8 million for the three months ended September 2009 and $62.3 million for the nine months ended September 2009, primarily representing amortization of deferred actuarial losses, are recorded in Corporate and Other Expenses. These components of pension cost recorded in Corporate and Other were not significant in the prior year. |

Capital and Comprehensive Income (Loss) [Abstract] | |
Stockholders' Equity Note Disclosure | Note I - Capital and Comprehensive Income (Loss) Common stock outstanding is net of shares held in treasury, and in substance retired. There were 13,162,657 treasury shares at September 2009, 12,198,054 at December 2008 and 12,198,054 at September 2008. The excess of the cost of treasury shares acquired over the $1 per share stated value of Common Stock is deducted from Retained Earnings. In addition, 256,221 shares of VF Common Stock at September 2009, 261,092 shares at December 2008, and 242,964 shares at September 2008 were held in connection with deferred compensation plans. These shares held for deferred compensation plans are treated for financial reporting purposes as treasury shares at a cost of $11.5 million, $10.8 million and $9.6 million at each of the respective dates. There are 25,000,000 authorized shares of Preferred Stock, $1 par value, of which none are outstanding. Other comprehensive income consists of changes in assets and liabilities that are not included in Net Income under GAAP but are instead reported within a separate component of Stockholders' Equity.

Stock-based Compensation [Abstract] | |
Disclosure of Compensation Related Costs, Share-based Payments | Note J Stock-based Compensation During the first nine months of 2009, VF granted options for 1,358,045 shares of Common Stock at a weighted average exercise price of $53.67, equal to the fair market value of VF Common Stock on the date of grant. The options vest in equal annual installments over a three year period. The fair value of these options was estimated using a lattice valuation model for employee groups having similar exercise behaviors, with the following assumptions: expected volatility ranging from 48% to 33%, with a weighted average of 38%; expected term of 4.9 to 7.4 years; expected dividend yield of 3.5%; and risk-free interest rate ranging from 0.5% at six months to 2.9% at 10 years. The resulting weighted average fair value of these options at the date of grant was $15.39 per option. Also during the first nine months of 2009, VF granted 378,908 performance-based restricted stock units. Participants are eligible to receive shares of VF Common Stock at the end of a three year performance period. The actual number of shares that will be earned, if any, will be based on VFs performance over that period. The weighted average grant date fair value of the restricted stock units was $57.42 per unit. In addition, VF granted 10,000 restricted stock units at a fair value of $57.38 per share. These units will vest in 2014, assuming continuation of employment by the grantees to that date. |

Income Taxes [Abstract] | |
Income Tax Disclosure | Note K Income Taxes The effective income tax rate was 27.0% for the first nine months of 2009, compared with 30.0% in the comparable period of 2008. The lower rate in 2009 was due to a higher percentage of income and, in some cases, reduced tax rates outside the United States. The effective tax rate for the full year 2008 was 28.9%, which included the favorable impact from expiration of statutes of limitations in locations where tax contingencies were recorded in prior years, tax audit settlements and updated assessments of previously accrued amounts. VF files a consolidated U.S. federal income tax return, as well as separate and combined income tax returns in numerous state and foreign jurisdictions. In the United States, tax years 2004 to 2006 are under examination by the Internal Revenue Service. Tax years 1998 to 2002 are under examination by the State of North Carolina, which has indicated its intent to examine tax years 2003 to 2005. Tax years 2003 to 2005 are under examination by the State of Alabama. In 2009, the State of California commenced an examination of tax years 2006 and 2007. VF is also currently subject to examination by various other taxing authorities. Management believes that some of these audits and negotiations will conclude during the next 12 months. The amount of unrecognized tax benefits increased by $4.2 million during the third quarter and nine month periods of 2009 primarily related to tax positions taken in prior years tax returns. During the next 12 months, management believes that it is reasonably possible that the amount of unrecognized tax benefits may decrease by approximately $18 million due to settlements of audits and expiration of statutes of limitations in locations where tax contingencies had been recorded for open tax years, which includes $12 million that would reduce income tax expense. |

In addition, 0.6 million restricted stock units for the three months and nine months ended September 2009 and 0.5 million restricted stock units for the comparable periods of the prior year were excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per share because they are subject to performance-based vesting conditions that had not been achieved by the end of those periods. |

Fair Value Measurements [Abstract] | |
Fair Value Disclosures | Note M Fair Value Measurements Fair value is defined in the accounting standards as the price that would be received from the sale of an asset or paid to transfer a liability (i.e., an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market in an orderly transaction between market participants. In determining fair value, the accounting standards establish a three-level hierarchy that distinguishes between (i) market data obtained or developed from independent sources (i.e., observable data inputs) and (ii) a reporting entitys own data and assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability (i.e., unobservable data inputs). Financial assets and financial liabilities measured and reported at fair value are classified in one of the following categories, in order of priority of observability and objectivity of pricing inputs: Level 1 Fair value based on quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. Level 2 Fair value based on significant directly observable data (other than Level 1 quoted prices) or significant indirectly observable data through corroboration with observable market data. Inputs would normally be (i) quoted prices in active markets for similar assets or liabilities, (ii) quoted prices in inactive markets for identical or similar assets or liabilities or (iii) information derived from or corroborated by observable market data. Level 3 Fair value based on prices or valuation techniques that require significant unobservable data inputs. Inputs would normally be a reporting entitys own data and judgments about assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability. The following table summarizes financial assets and financial liabilities measured and recorded at fair value on a recurring basis at the dates indicated: In thousands Fair Value Measurement Using: Quoted Prices Significant in Active Other Significant Total Markets for Observable Unobservable Fair Identical Assets Inputs Inputs Value (Level 1) (Level 2) (Level 3) September 2009 Financial assets: Cash equivalents $ 208,408 $ 208,408 $ - $ - Derivative instruments 6,554 - 6,554 - Investment securities 174,089 134,435 39,654 - Financial liabilities: Derivative instruments 25,574 - 25,574 - Deferred compensation 193,276 - 193,276 - December 2008 Financial assets: Cash equivalents $ 156,900 $ 156,900 $ - $ - Derivative instruments 13,529 - 13,529 - Investment securities 157,651 114,778 42,873 - Financial liabilities: Derivative instruments 38,474 - 38,474 - Deferred compensation 176,394 - 176,394 - For the above financial assets and financial liabilities measured at fair value, cash equivalents represent funds held in institutional money market funds and ti |

Derivative Financial Instruments and Hedging Activities [Abstract] | |
Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities Disclosure | Note N Derivative Financial Instruments and Hedging Activities VF is exposed to risks in its ongoing business operations. Some of these risks are managed by using derivative financial instruments. Derivative financial instruments are contracts whose value is based on, or derived from, changes in the value of an underlying currency exchange rate, interest rate or other financial asset or index. VF conducts business in many foreign countries and therefore is subject to movements in foreign currency exchange rates. Exchange rate fluctuations can have a significant effect on the translated U.S. dollar value of operating results and net assets denominated in foreign currencies. VF does not attempt to manage translation risk but does use derivative contracts to manage the exchange rate risk of specified cash flows or transactions denominated in various foreign currencies. VF manages exchange rate risk on a consolidated basis, which allows exposures to be netted. Use of derivative financial instruments allows VF to reduce the overall exposure to risks in its cash flows and earnings, since gains and losses in the value of the derivative contracts offset losses and gains in the value of the underlying hedged exposures. In addition, in prior years VF had used derivatives in limited instances to hedge interest rate risk. Accounting for derivative instruments All derivative instruments are recognized as either assets or liabilities at their fair value. The accounting for changes in the fair value (i.e., gains and losses) of derivative instruments depends on whether a derivative has been designated and qualifies as part of a hedging relationship and on the type of hedging relationship. The criteria used to determine if a derivative instrument qualifies for hedge accounting treatment are (i) whether an appropriate hedging instrument has been identified and designated to reduce a specific exposure and (ii) whether there is a high correlation between changes in the fair value of the hedging instrument and the identified exposure. A qualifying derivative is designated for accounting purposes, based on the nature of the hedging relationship, as a fair value hedge, cash flow hedge or a hedge of a net investment in a foreign business. VFs hedging practices and related accounting policies are described in separate sections below. VF considers its foreign businesses to be long-term investments and, accordingly, does not hedge those net investments. VF does not use derivative instruments for trading or speculative purposes. Hedging cash flows are classified in the statements of cash flows in the same category as the items being hedged. VF formally documents hedging instruments and hedging relationships at the inception of each contract. Further, VF assesses, both at the inception of a contract and on an ongoing basis, whether the hedging instruments are effective in offsetting the risk of the hedged transactions. Occasionally, a portion of a derivative instrument will be considered ineffective in hedging the originally identified exposure due to a decline in amount or a change in timing of the hedged exposure. In those cases, hedge accounting treatm |

Recently Issued Accounting Standards [Abstract] | |
Recently Issued Accounting Standards | Note O Recently Issued Accounting Standards In March 2009, the FASB issued new accounting guidance on employers disclosures for postretirement benefit plan assets. The new guidance expands disclosure requirements to provide information about an employers defined benefit pension plans, including the major categories and fair values of plan assets, investment policies and strategies, and significant concentrations of credit risk. This new guidance, effective for VFs 2009 fiscal year, is not expected to have a significant effect on VFs consolidated financial statements. In June 2009, the FASB issued new accounting guidance on the accounting for transfers of financial assets. This amends the accounting guidance for determining whether a transfer of financial assets is a sale or a secured borrowing and expands the related disclosure requirements. The guidance, effective for VFs 2010 fiscal year, is not expected to have a significant effect on VFs consolidated financial statements. Other new pronouncements issued but not effective until after September2009 are not expected to have a significant effect on VFs consolidated financial position, results of operations or disclosures. |
