Dear Fellow Shareholders:

We are pleased to invite you to the 2021 Annual Meeting of Shareholders of VF Corporation, to be held Tuesday, July 27, 2021, live via the Internet at www.proxydocs.com/VFC, commencing at 10:30 a.m., Mountain Daylight Time. In light of the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic and uncertainty related to the pandemic, and after careful consideration, our Board of Directors has determined to hold a virtual annual meeting in order to facilitate shareholder attendance and participation by enabling shareholders to participate from any location and at no cost. We believe this is the right choice for VF at this time, as it enables engagement with our shareholders, regardless of size, resources, or physical location while safeguarding the health of our shareholders, Board and management. Shareholders will not be able to attend the meeting in person.

We are committed to ensuring that shareholders who attend the virtual meeting are afforded the same rights and opportunities to participate as they would at an in-person meeting, using online tools to ensure shareholder access and participation. To attend the meeting, shareholders must register, using their control number and other information, at www.proxydocs.com/VFC. Upon completing registration, shareholders will receive further instructions by email, including links that will allow them to access the meeting, vote online during the meeting and, if they register prior to 5:00 p.m., Eastern Daylight Time, on Friday, July 23, 2021, submit questions for the meeting.

At the meeting, shareholders will be asked to vote on (i) the election of directors; (ii) approval of the compensation of named executive officers as disclosed in this proxy statement; (iii) ratification of the selection of PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP as VF’s independent registered public accounting firm for fiscal 2022; and (iv) such other matters as may properly come before the meeting.

Your Board of Directors recommends a vote “FOR” the election of the persons nominated to serve as directors, “FOR” the approval of compensation of named executive officers as disclosed in this proxy statement, and “FOR” the ratification of the selection of PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP as VF’s independent registered public accounting firm. Regardless of the number of shares you own or whether you plan to attend the virtual meeting, it is important that your shares be represented and voted at the meeting.

On or about June 11, 2021, we will begin mailing a Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials (the “Notice”) to all shareholders of record on our books at the close of business on May 28, 2021, the record date for the meeting, and will post our proxy materials on the website referenced in the Notice. As more fully described in the Notice, shareholders may choose to access our proxy materials on the website referred to in the Notice or may request to receive a printed set of our proxy materials. In addition, the Notice and website provide information regarding how you may request to receive proxy materials in printed form by mail, or electronically by email, on an ongoing basis.

##### Table of Contents

ABOUT THE MEETING

What is the purpose of the meeting?

At the meeting, holders of VF Common Stock will vote on the matters described in the notice of the meeting on the front page of this proxy statement, including the election of directors, approval of the compensation of named executive officers as disclosed in this proxy statement, ratification of the selection of PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP as VF’s independent registered public accounting firm for fiscal 2022 and such other matters as may properly come before the meeting.

Who is entitled to vote at the meeting?

Only shareholders of record on May 28, 2021, the record date for the meeting, are entitled to receive notice of and vote at the meeting.

What are the voting rights of shareholders?

Each share of VF Common Stock is entitled to one vote on each matter considered at the meeting.

Why will shareholders receive a one-page notice in the mail regarding the Internet availability of proxy materials instead of a full set of proxy materials?

In accordance with rules adopted by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), we may furnish proxy materials, including this proxy statement and our Annual Report for fiscal 2021, to our shareholders by providing access to such documents on the Internet instead of mailing printed copies. Most shareholders will not receive printed copies of the proxy materials unless they request them. Instead, the Notice, which was mailed to most of our shareholders, will instruct you as to how you may access and review all of the proxy materials on the Internet. The Notice also instructs you as to how you may submit your proxy on the Internet. If you would like to receive a paper or email copy of our proxy materials, you should follow the instructions for requesting such materials in the Notice.

How may shareholders attend the virtual meeting and ask questions at the virtual meeting?

We are committed to ensuring that shareholders who attend the virtual meeting are afforded the same rights and opportunities to participate as they would at an in-person meeting, using online tools to ensure shareholder access and participation. To attend the meeting and vote during the live webcast of the meeting, you must first register at www.proxydocs.com/VFC, using your control number and other information, at www.proxydocs.com/VFC, and, to submit questions for the meeting, you must register and submit questions prior to 5:00 p.m., Eastern Daylight Time, on Friday, July 23, 2021. Upon completing your registration, you will receive further instructions via email, including your unique link that will allow you to access the meeting and vote online during the meeting. Please be sure to follow instructions found on your proxy card or other information forwarded by your bank, broker or other nominee and subsequent instructions that will be delivered to you via email.

Beginning one hour prior to, and during, the meeting, support will be available to assist shareholders with any technical difficulties they may have accessing, hearing or participating in the virtual meeting. If participants encounter any difficulty accessing, or during, the virtual meeting, they should call the support team at the numbers listed on the emailed instructions.

Even if you plan to attend the virtual meeting, we encourage you to vote in advance by Internet, telephone or mail so that your vote will be counted even if you later decide not to attend the virtual meeting.

How do shareholders access the proxy materials over the Internet?

The Notice, proxy card or voting instruction card you receive will contain instructions on how to view our proxy materials for the meeting on the Internet and vote your shares, and will allow you to instruct us as to how to send our future proxy materials to you either by mail or by email. Our proxy materials are also available for viewing at: www.proxydocs.com/VFC. Choosing to receive your future proxy materials by email will save us the cost of printing and mailing documents to you, and

will reduce the environmental impact of printing and mailing these materials.

How do shareholders vote?

Shareholders may vote at the meeting by attending the virtual meeting or by proxy. Proxies validly delivered by shareholders (by Internet, telephone or mail as described below) and received by VF prior to the meeting will be voted in accordance with the instructions contained therein. If a shareholder’s proxy card gives no instructions, it will be voted as recommended by the Board of Directors. A shareholder may change any vote by proxy before the proxy is exercised by filing with the Secretary of VF either a notice of revocation or a duly executed proxy bearing a later date or by registering to attend the virtual meeting, attending the virtual meeting and voting at the virtual meeting. Shareholders who vote by telephone or the Internet may also change their votes by re-voting by telephone or the Internet within the time periods listed below. A shareholder’s latest vote, including via the Internet or telephone, is the one that is counted.

THERE ARE THREE WAYS TO VOTE BY PROXY:

|  | BY INTERNET: |  |  |  | BY TELEPHONE: |  |  |  | BY MAIL: |  |
|  | Visit the website www.proxypush.com/VFC. To vote your shares, you must have the Notice or your proxy/voting instruction card in hand.

If you are a beneficial owner, please refer to your proxy card or other information forwarded by your bank, broker or other holder of record to see which of the above choices are available to you.

What constitutes a quorum?

Shareholders entitled to cast at least a majority of the votes that all shareholders are entitled to cast must be present at the virtual meeting or present by proxy to constitute a quorum for the transaction of business. Abstentions and broker “non-votes” are counted as present for establishing a quorum. A broker non-vote occurs on an item when a broker is not permitted to vote on that item absent instruction from the beneficial owner of the shares and no instruction is given. At the close of business on May 28, 2021, there were 392,356,212 outstanding shares of VF Common Stock.

What are the Board’s recommendations?

Your Board of Directors recommends a vote “FOR” the election of the persons nominated to serve as directors; “FOR” the approval of compensation of named executive officers as disclosed in this proxy statement; and “FOR” the ratification of PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP as VF’s independent registered public accounting firm for fiscal 2022. If any other matters are brought before the meeting, the proxy holders will vote as recommended by the Board of Directors. If no recommendation is given, the proxy holders will vote in their discretion. At the date of this proxy statement, we do not know of any other matter to come before the meeting. Persons named as proxy holders on the form of proxy/voting instruction card are Steven E. Rendle, Chairman of the Board of Directors of VF and President and Chief Executive Officer of VF, and Laura C. Meagher, Executive Vice President, General Counsel and Secretary of VF.

VF CORPORATION | 2021 ANNUAL MEETING OF SHAREHOLDERS 3

##### Table of Contents

ABOUT THE MEETING

What vote is required to approve each item?

Under our By-Laws and our Corporate Governance Principles, Directors are elected by the affirmative vote of a majority of the votes cast in uncontested elections. This means that the number of votes cast “for” a Director nominee must exceed the number of votes cast “withheld” with respect to that nominee. Abstentions and broker non-votes are not counted as votes “for” or “withheld” with respect to a Director nominee. In an uncontested election, any nominee who does not receive a majority of votes cast “for” his or her election is required to tender his or her resignation promptly following the failure to receive the required vote. The Governance and Corporate Responsibility Committee is then required to make a recommendation to the Board as to whether it should accept the resignation. The Board is required to decide whether to accept the resignation. In a contested election, the required vote would be a plurality of votes cast. Full details of this policy are set forth in our Corporate Governance Principles, available on our website, www.vfc.com, under “Policy on Majority Voting.” Approval of the compensation of named executive officers as disclosed in this proxy statement, ratification of the selection of PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP as VF’s independent registered public accounting firm for fiscal 2022, or approval of any other matter to come before the meeting requires the affirmative vote of a majority of the votes cast on such matter at the meeting. Withheld votes and abstentions will not be taken into account in determining the outcome of the approval of compensation of named executive officers as disclosed in this proxy statement, ratification of the selection of PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP as VF’s independent registered public accounting firm for fiscal 2022, or approval of any other matter to come before the meeting (other than the election of directors, which is described above). Under current New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) rules, if the record holder of your shares (usually a bank, broker or other nominee) holds your shares in its name, your record holder is permitted to vote your shares on the ratification of the selection of PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP as VF’s independent registered public accounting firm for fiscal 2022 in its discretion, even if it does not receive voting instructions from you. On all the other items referenced above, your record holder is not permitted to vote your shares without your instructions, and such uninstructed shares are considered broker non-votes and will not be taken into account when determining the outcome of the election of directors or the approval of the compensation of named executive officers as disclosed in this proxy statement.

Householding

Under SEC rules, a single Notice or set of annual reports and proxy statements may be sent to any household at which two or more VF shareholders reside if they appear to be members of the same family. Each shareholder receiving physical copies of the proxy materials continues to receive a separate proxy card. This procedure, referred to as “householding,” reduces the volume of duplicate information shareholders receive and reduces mailing and printing expenses for VF. Brokers with accountholders who are VF shareholders may be householding our proxy materials. As indicated in the notice previously provided by these brokers to our shareholders, a single Notice or annual report and proxy statement will be delivered to multiple shareholders sharing an address unless contrary instructions have been received from an affected shareholder. Once you have received notice from your broker that it will be householding communications to your address, householding will continue until you are notified otherwise or until you revoke your consent. If, at any time, you no longer wish to participate in householding and would prefer to receive a separate Notice or annual report and proxy statement, please notify your broker so that separate copies may be delivered to you. Shareholders who currently receive multiple copies of the Notice or annual report and proxy statement at their address who would prefer to receive a single copy should contact their broker or the Company’s Transfer Agent: Computershare, Inc., P.O. Box 505000 Louisville, KY 40233-5000; (800) 446-2617.

Other Information

A copy of VF’s Annual Report for fiscal 2021 accompanies this proxy statement. No material contained in the Annual Report is to be considered a part of the proxy solicitation material. VF’s mailing address is P.O. Box 13919, Denver, Colorado 80201.

ITEM NO. 1

Election of Directors

VF’s Board of Directors has nominated the persons named below whose terms expire at the meeting to serve as directors. All nominees currently serve as directors on our Board and, if reelected, will serve a term of office until our 2022 annual meeting or until a successor is duly elected and qualified. The persons named in the accompanying form of proxy/voting instruction card intend to vote such proxy for the election as directors of the following nominees, subject to any explicit instructions of the shareholder set forth on the proxy/voting instruction card. If any nominee becomes unable or unwilling to serve as a director, the proxy holders will vote for such other person or persons as may be nominated by the Board of Directors. The nominees named below have indicated that they are willing to serve if reelected to the VF Board. It is the policy of VF that a substantial majority of the members of its Board of Directors should be independent. Currently, eleven of the nominees have been determined by the Board to be independent in accordance with standards adopted by the Board, as set forth in the Board’s Corporate Governance Principles and as attached hereto as Appendix A, and the Listing Standards of the NYSE, the securities exchange on which VF’s Common Stock is traded.

ITEM NO. 1
Election of Directors

IDENTIFYING AND EVALUATING NOMINEES FOR DIRECTOR

The Board of Directors believes directors should possess backgrounds, qualifications, attributes and skills that, when taken together, provide VF with a broad range of experience. The Governance and Corporate Responsibility Committee identifies potential candidates that are proposed by Board members, management, third-party search firms and our shareholders. The Board and the Committee consider the qualifications of Directors individually, and in the broader context of the Board’s overall composition and VF’s current and future needs. Candidates are selected for their character, judgment, business experience, acumen, independence and commitment to VF and service on the Board. Board members are selected to represent all shareholders and not any particular constituency. In accordance with VF’s Corporate Governance Principles, the Committee considers diversity of experience and background in selecting nominees, and includes qualified female, gender, and racially/ethnically diverse candidates in the initial list of candidates from which any new independent director nominee is chosen by the Board. The Committee considers this policy to have been effective to date in identifying and evaluating diverse candidates.

Any shareholder who wishes to recommend a candidate for consideration by the Governance and Corporate Responsibility Committee for nomination at an annual meeting should submit a written recommendation to the Secretary of VF. If the Committee does not recommend a nominee proposed by a shareholder for election as a director, then the shareholder seeking to propose the nominee would have to follow the formal nomination procedures set forth in VF’s By-Laws. VF’s By-Laws provide that a shareholder may nominate a person for election as a director if written notice of the shareholder’s intent to nominate a person for election as a director is received by the Secretary of VF (1) in the case of an annual meeting, not less than 120 days before the anniversary of the date VF mailed its proxy materials for the prior year’s annual meeting, or (2) in the case of a special meeting at which directors are to be elected, no later than seven days following the day on which notice of the meeting was first mailed to shareholders. The notice must contain specified information about the shareholder and the nominee, including such information as would be required to be included in a proxy statement pursuant to the rules and regulations established by the SEC under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. The Committee’s policy with regard to consideration of any potential director is the same for candidates recommended by shareholders and candidates identified by other means.

Election of Directors

NOMINEES

Our Board selected the nominees based on their experience, qualifications, attributes and skills and the belief that each can make unique and substantial contributions to VF. Together, our nominees bring to our Board a vast array of public company and multi-brand consumer product company experience, and domestic and international business experience. In addition, our nominees represent diverse viewpoints and bring a blend of historical and new perspectives about VF as a result of their varied lengths of tenure as our directors. Our Board believes, in totality, this mix of attributes among the nominees enhances our Board’s independent leadership and effectiveness in light of VF’s businesses and organizational complexities and long-term strategy, including its transformation to a purpose-led, performance-driven enterprise that is consumer-minded, retail-centric and hyper-digital.

CORPORATE GOVERNANCE AT VF

VF’s business is managed under the direction of its Board of Directors. Members of the Board are kept informed of VF’s business through discussions with the Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer and other officers, by reviewing VF’s annual business plan and other materials provided to them and by participating in meetings of the Board and its committees. In addition, to promote open discussion among the independent directors, those directors meet in regularly scheduled executive sessions without management present. During fiscal 2021, the independent directors met in executive session without management present six times. Since April 2016, VF has had a lead director structure, in which the independent directors annually elect a lead independent director whose duties include those described below. W. Alan McCollough, a member of each of the Governance and Corporate Responsibility Committee, the Talent and Compensation Committee and the Executive Committee, was selected by the Board to serve as our lead independent director and has served in such position since April 2016.

Corporate Governance Principles

VF’s Board of Directors has a long-standing commitment to sound and effective corporate governance practices. A foundation of VF’s corporate governance is the Board’s policy that a substantial majority of the members of the Board should be independent. This policy is included in the Board’s written Corporate Governance Principles, which address a number of other important governance issues such as:

| • |  | qualifications for Board membership;

| • |  | mandatory retirement for Board members at the annual meeting of shareholders following attainment of age 72;

| • |  | a requirement that directors offer to submit their resignation to the Board for consideration upon a substantial change in principal occupation or business affiliation;

| • |  | Board leadership;

| • |  | a lead independent director, whose duties include presiding at meetings of the Board at which the chairman is not present, serving as a liaison between the chairman and the independent directors, approving meeting agendas and schedules, having authority to call meetings of the independent directors and being available for consultation and direct communication with major shareholders;

| • |  | committee responsibilities;

| • |  | Board consideration of majority shareholder votes;

| • |  | authority of the Board to engage outside independent advisors as it deems appropriate;

| • |  | inclusion of qualified female, gender, and racially/ethnically diverse candidates in the initial list of candidates from which any new independent director nominee is chosen by the Board;

| • |  | majority voting for directors in uncontested elections;

| • |  | succession planning for the chief executive officer; and

| • |  | annual Board self-evaluation.

In addition, the Board of Directors for many years has had in place formal charters stating the powers and responsibilities of each of its committees.

The Board believes that a rigorous evaluation process is an essential component of strong corporate governance practices. The lead independent director, or an independent director designated by the lead independent director, personally interviews all members of the Board and senior management to obtain candid feedback on the performance of the Board as a whole as well as individual director performance.

The Board’s Corporate Governance Principles, the Audit, Governance and Corporate Responsibility, Talent and Compensation and Finance Committee charters, code of business conduct and ethics applicable to the principal executive officer, the principal financial officer, and the principal accounting officer as well as other employees and all directors of VF, and other corporate governance information are available on VF’s web site (www.vfc.com) and will be provided free of charge to any person upon request directed to the Secretary of VF at P.O. Box 13919, Denver, Colorado 80201.

Corporate Governance Principles

Anyone wishing to communicate directly with one or more members of the Board of Directors or with the non-management members of the Board of Directors as a group (including the directors who preside at meetings or executive sessions of non-management directors) may contact the Chair of the Governance and Corporate Responsibility Committee, c/o the Secretary of VF at the address set forth in the preceding sentence, or call the VF Ethics Helpline at 1-866-492-3370 or send an email message to corpgov@vfc.com. The Secretary forwards all such communications, other than solicitations and frivolous communications, to the Chair of the Governance and Corporate Responsibility Committee.

Related Party Transactions

Since the beginning of VF’s last fiscal year, no financial transactions, arrangements, relationships, or any series of them, were disclosed or proposed through VF’s processes for review, approval or ratification of transactions with related persons in which (i) VF was or is to be a participant, (ii) the amount involved exceeded $120,000, and (iii) any related person had or will have a direct or indirect material interest. A related person means any person who was a director, nominee for director, executive officer or 5% owner of VF Common Stock, or an immediate family member of any such person. PNC Bank, N.A., which is one of three co-trustees under the Barbey Family Trust accounts (see footnote 2 to the “Common Stock Beneficial Ownership of Certain Beneficial Owners” table on page 53), is one of several lenders party to VF’s revolving credit facility. The credit facility was entered in the ordinary course of business, was made on substantially the same terms, including interest rates and collateral, as those prevailing at the time for comparable loans with persons not related to the lender, and did not involve more than the normal risk of collectability or present other unfavorable features.

The VF Code of Business Conduct prohibits any associate, including officers and directors, of VF from owning any interest in (excluding publicly traded securities) or having any personal contract or agreement of any nature with suppliers, contractors, customers or others doing business with VF that might tend to influence a decision with respect to the business of VF. Each of the Chief Executive Officer and senior financial officers must disclose to the General Counsel any material transaction or relationship that reasonably could be expected to give rise to such a conflict of interest, and the General Counsel must notify the Governance and Corporate Responsibility Committee of any such disclosure. Conflicts of interest involving the General Counsel must be disclosed to the Chief Executive Officer, and the Chief Executive Officer must notify the Governance and Corporate Responsibility Committee of any such disclosure.

In addition, all directors and persons subject to reporting under Section 16 of the Rules and Regulations under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 are required to disclose any transaction between them, entities they own an interest in, or their immediate family members, and VF (other than transactions available to all employees generally or transactions of less than $100,000 in value) to the General Counsel. The General Counsel presents any items disclosed by any director to the full Board of Directors, and any item disclosed by an officer to the Governance and Corporate Responsibility Committee.

Board of Directors

Eleven of VF’s current directors are non-employee directors. Under the NYSE Corporate Governance Rules, no director qualifies as “independent” unless the Board of Directors affirmatively determines that the director has no material relationship with the company (either directly or as a partner, stockholder or officer of an organization that has a relationship with the company). The Board has adopted categorical standards that are part of the Corporate Governance Principles to assist it in making determinations of independence, which are attached to this proxy statement as Appendix A. In evaluating the independence of directors, the Board considered transactions and relationships between each director and members of his or her immediate family. When considering commercial transactions that are made from time to time in the ordinary course of business between VF and certain entities affiliated with non-management directors, transactions are not considered to be a material transaction that would impair the independence of the relevant non-management director if the director is an executive officer or employee of another company that does business with VF in an amount which, in any single fiscal year for the past three fiscal years, is less than the greater of $1 million or 2% of such other company’s consolidated gross revenues.

The Board determined that eleven of VF’s twelve nominees for director are free of any material relationship with VF, other than their service as directors, and are “independent” directors both under the Listing Standards of the NYSE and

VF CORPORATION | 2021 ANNUAL MEETING OF SHAREHOLDERS 13

##### Table of Contents

CORPORATE GOVERNANCE AT VF
Board of Directors

the categorical standards adopted by the Board. The Board determined that Mses. Chugg, Lang, Roberts, and Wu and Messrs. Carucci, Dorer, Hoplamazian, McCollough, McMullen, Otis, and Shattock are independent directors, and that Mr. Rendle is not an independent director. The Board, in making its determination as to Mr. Hoplamazian’s independence, considered that he is President, Chief Executive Officer and a director of Hyatt Hotels Corporation, which is a vendor to VF Corporation in the ordinary course of business. The Board, in making its determination as to Mr. McMullen’s independence, considered that he is Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of The Kroger Co. which transacts business with VF in the ordinary course of business. The Board, in making its determination as to Ms. Chugg’s and Mr. Otis’s independence, considered that Ms. Chugg and Mr. Otis serve as two of the three Trustees under the Barbey Family Trust accounts (collectively, the “Trusts”).

Because all decisions of the Trustees require a majority vote, and thus none of the three Trustees individually controls the decision-making of the Trustees, the Trustees are not considered to separately beneficially own the VF Common Stock held by the Trusts (the “Trust Shares”). As a result, and after considering all other relevant factors related to their roles as Trustees, the Board determined that Ms. Chugg’s and Mr. Otis’s status as Trustees of the Trusts does not give rise to a material relationship with VF other than in their service as directors.

During fiscal 2021, VF’s Board of Directors held ten meetings. Under VF’s Corporate Governance Principles, directors are expected to attend all meetings of the Board, all meetings of committees of which they are members and the annual meetings of shareholders. Every current member of the Board, since the time of his or her election to the Board, attended at least 75% of the total number of meetings of the Board and all committees on which he or she served during fiscal 2021, and every member of the Board who was a Board member in July 2020 attended the Annual Meeting of Shareholders in July 2020.

Board Committees and Their Responsibilities

The Board has Executive, Audit, Finance, Governance and Corporate Responsibility, and Talent and Compensation Committees. The Board has determined that each of the members of the Audit, Governance and Corporate Responsibility and Talent and Compensation Committees is independent. Each of these committees is governed by a written charter approved by the Board of Directors. Each is required to perform an annual self-evaluation, and each committee may engage outside independent advisors as the committee deems appropriate. A brief description of the responsibilities of the Audit, Finance, Governance and Corporate Responsibility and Talent and Compensation Committees follows.

Audit Committee: The Audit Committee monitors and makes recommendations to the Board concerning the financial reporting policies and procedures to be observed in the conduct of VF’s affairs. Its duties include:

| • |  | selecting the independent registered public accounting firm for VF;

| • |  | reviewing the scope of the audit to be conducted by the independent registered public accounting firm;

| • |  | meeting with the independent registered public accounting firm concerning the results of their audit and VF’s selection and disclosure of critical accounting policies;

| • |  | reviewing with management and the independent registered public accounting firm VF’s annual and quarterly statements prior to filing with the SEC;

| • |  | overseeing the scope and adequacy of VF’s system of internal controls over external financial reporting;

| • |  | reviewing the status of compliance with laws, regulations, and internal procedures, contingent liabilities and risks that may be material to VF;

| • |  | preparing a report to shareholders annually for inclusion in the proxy statement;

| • |  | serving as the principal liaison between the Board of Directors and VF’s independent registered public accounting firm;

| • |  | reviewing enterprise risk management matters and plans;

| • |  | reviewing health and safety matters; and

| • |  | overseeing and reviewing cybersecurity and information security matters.

As of the date of this proxy statement, the members of the Committee are Messrs. Otis (Chair), Carucci, Dorer, and McMullen, and Mses. Roberts and Wu. The Committee held ten meetings during fiscal 2021. The Board of Directors has

14 VF CORPORATION | 2021 ANNUAL MEETING OF SHAREHOLDERS

##### Table of Contents

CORPORATE GOVERNANCE AT VF
Board Committees and Their Responsibilities

determined that all of the members of the Committee are independent as independence for audit committee members is defined in the Listing Standards of the NYSE and the SEC regulations and that all are financially literate. The Board of Directors has further determined that Messrs. Carucci, Dorer, McMullen, and Otis, and Ms. Roberts qualify as “audit committee financial experts” in accordance with the definition of “audit committee financial expert” set forth in the SEC regulations and have accounting and related financial management expertise within the meaning of the Listing Standards of the NYSE. Messrs. Carucci, Dorer, McMullen, and Otis and Ms. Roberts acquired those attributes through acting as or actively overseeing a principal financial officer or principal accounting officer of a public company. Each of them has experience overseeing or assessing the performance of companies with respect to the evaluation of financial statements.

Finance Committee: The Finance Committee monitors and makes recommendations to the Board concerning the financial policies and procedures of VF. The responsibilities of the Committee include reviewing and recommending to the Board, as appropriate, actions concerning:

| • |  | dividend policy;

| • |  | changes in capital structure, including debt or equity issuances;

| • |  | the financial aspects of proposed acquisitions or divestitures;

| • |  | VF’s annual capital expenditure budgets and certain capital projects; and

| • |  | the funding policy for VF’s benefit plans.

As of the date of this proxy statement, the members of the Committee are Messrs. Hoplamazian and Shattock and Mses. Lang, Roberts (Chair), and Wu. Mr. Rendle serves as an ex officio member of the Committee. The Committee held five meetings during fiscal 2021.

Governance and Corporate Responsibility Committee: The responsibilities of the Governance and Corporate Responsibility Committee include:

| • |  | recommending to the Board of Directors criteria for Board membership, screening potential candidates for director and recommending candidates to the Board of Directors;

| • |  | recommending to the Board a succession plan for the Chief Executive Officer (or delegating such responsibility to the full Board), and, in the event the Board conducts a search for a new Chief Executive Officer that will include candidates who are not then VF employees or directors, including qualified female, gender, and/or racially/ethnically diverse individuals in the list of candidates from which the new Chief Executive Officer is to be chosen;

| • |  | reviewing and evaluating strategies, programs, policies and practices relating to ESG issues and impacts to support the sustainable and responsible growth of VF’s businesses; and

| • |  | reviewing developments in corporate governance and making recommendations to the Board on governance policies and principles for VF.

The Committee annually evaluates each director to determine his or her fitness and appropriateness for continued service on the Board. As of the date of this proxy statement, the members of the Committee are Messrs. Carucci (Chair), Dorer, McCollough, McMullen, and Otis and Ms. Chugg. The Committee held five meetings during fiscal 2021.

Talent and Compensation Committee: The Talent and Compensation Committee (the “Compensation Committee”) has the authority to discharge the Board’s responsibilities relating to compensation of VF’s executives and to review and make recommendations to the Board concerning compensation and benefits for key employees. The responsibilities of the Compensation Committee include:

| • |  | reviewing and approving VF’s goals and objectives relative to the compensation of the Chief Executive Officer, evaluating him in light of these goals and objectives, and setting his compensation level based on this evaluation;

| • |  | annually reviewing the performance evaluations of the other executive officers of VF;

| • |  | annually recommending to the Board the salary of each named executive officer of VF and reviewing management’s recommendations regarding the salaries of other senior officers;

| • |  | making recommendations to the Board with respect to incentive compensation-based plans and equity-based plans;

| • |  | periodically reviewing all VF’s compensation and benefit plans insofar as they relate to key employees to confirm that such plans remain equitable and competitive;

| • |  | administering and interpreting VF’s management incentive compensation plans, in accordance with the terms of each plan;

CORPORATE GOVERNANCE AT VF
Board Committees and Their Responsibilities

| • |  | preparing a report to shareholders annually for inclusion in the proxy statement;

| • |  | reviewing VF’s Compensation Discussion and Analysis in the proxy statement and discussing with management;

| • |  | periodically reviewing the competitiveness and appropriateness of the compensation program for non-employee directors and recommending to the Board compensation to be paid to non-employee directors; and

| • |  | reviewing and recommending to the Board VF’s submissions to shareholders on executive compensation matters.

The Compensation Committee has the authority to retain or obtain the advice of any compensation consultant, legal counsel or other adviser. The Compensation Committee may only select a compensation consultant, legal counsel or other adviser after taking into consideration the factors that affect the independence of such advisers as identified by the SEC and the NYSE. The Compensation Committee has retained Frederic W. Cook & Co., Inc. (“FW Cook”) as its independent compensation consultant to assist the Compensation Committee in accomplishing its objectives. FW Cook has no relationship with VF other than providing services to the Compensation Committee.

The Chief Executive Officer makes his performance evaluation comments and recommendations to the Compensation Committee regarding compensation for executives reporting directly to him. VF management purchases aggregate executive compensation data from Willis Towers Watson from its database of over 700 U.S.-based companies to assist the Chief Executive Officer in making those recommendations to the Compensation Committee. The Compensation Committee has the authority to form and delegate authority to subcommittees as it deems appropriate. The role of the Compensation Committee, the compensation consultant and management in executive compensation is discussed in further detail in the Compensation Discussion and Analysis beginning on page 20. As of the date of this proxy statement, the members of the Compensation Committee are Messrs. Shattock (Chair), Hoplamazian, and McCollough and Mses. Chugg and Lang. The Compensation Committee held eight meetings during fiscal 2021.

COMPENSATION COMMITTEE INTERLOCKS AND INSIDER PARTICIPATION

None of the members of the Compensation Committee (i) has ever been an officer or employee of VF, (ii) had any relationship requiring disclosure by VF under the rules and regulations established by the SEC, or (iii) is an executive officer of another entity at which one of VF’s executive officers serves on the board of directors. None of VF’s executive officers has served during fiscal 2021 as a director or a member of the compensation committee of another entity, one of whose executive officers serves as a member of the VF Board of Directors or Compensation Committee.

BOARD LEADERSHIP STRUCTURE

Steven E. Rendle serves as both Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of the Board of VF. The members of the Board possess considerable experience and unique knowledge of the challenges and opportunities VF faces, and the Board believes that the most effective leadership structure for VF is for Mr. Rendle to serve as both Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer. Further, the Board believes VF has a strong governance structure in place with sufficient processes to provide for independent discussion among directors and for independent evaluation of, and communication with, many members of senior management. These processes include the lead independent director structure adopted by the Board in 2016. The Board has concluded that VF and its shareholders are best served by not having a formal policy on whether the same individual should serve as both Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of the Board. The Board retains the flexibility to determine the appropriate leadership structure based on the circumstances at the time of the determination.

Since April 2016, W. Alan McCollough has served as lead director, and his duties include presiding at meetings of the Board at which the Chairman is not present, serving as a liaison between the Chairman and the independent directors, approving meeting agendas and schedules, having authority to call meetings of the independent directors and being available for consultation and direct communication with major shareholders.

RISK OVERSIGHT

BOARD OVERSIGHT OF RISK

The Board of Directors considers its role in risk oversight when evaluating VF’s Corporate Governance Principles and its leadership structure. Both the Corporate Governance Principles and the Board’s leadership structure facilitate the Board’s oversight of risk and communication with management. Our Chairman is focused on VF’s risk management efforts and ensures that risk matters are appropriately brought to the Board and/or its committees for their review. The Board executes oversight responsibility for risk both as a whole and through delegation to its committees, for example:

| • |  | the Audit Committee, consistent with the requirements of the NYSE and the Audit Committee charter, discusses guidelines and policies to govern the process by which risk assessment and management is undertaken at VF and oversees the steps management takes to monitor and control VF’s material financial risk exposure. The Audit Committee reviews the status of compliance with laws, regulations and internal procedures, contingent liabilities and risks that may be material to VF, and the scope and status of systems designed to assure VF’s compliance with laws, regulations and internal procedures through receiving reports from management, legal counsel and third parties, as well as major legislative and regulatory developments which could materially impact VF’s contingent liabilities and risks;

| • |  | the Compensation Committee evaluates the risks and rewards associated with VF’s compensation philosophy and programs; and

| • |  | the Finance Committee oversees certain financial matters and risks relating to capital structure, acquisitions and divestitures and capital projects.

CYBERSECURITY AND INFORMATION SECURITY RISK OVERSIGHT

We place a high priority on securing confidential business information and data and the personal information we receive and store about our customers and employees. We have systems in place to securely receive and store that information and to detect, contain, and respond to data security incidents. We also have a cybersecurity and information security training and compliance program in place to support our teams who work in areas of cybersecurity and information security risk. As part of this program, VF associates who have access to confidential information receive training at least annually on cybersecurity and information security. VF also maintains a cybersecurity and information security risk insurance policy. VF has not experienced a material cybersecurity or information security breach in the last three years. Oversight responsibility in this area is shared by the Board, its Audit Committee, and management. Management receives a cybersecurity and information security maturity assessment from a third party assessor biannually to gain an independent view of our cybersecurity and information security program. The Board oversees VF’s cybersecurity and information security program and receives an annual update from VF senior leadership on cybersecurity and information security matters. To respond to the threat of security breaches and cyberattacks, VF maintains a program, overseen by VF’s Chief Information Security Officer, that is designed to protect and preserve the confidentiality, integrity and continued availability of all information owned by, or in the care of, VF. This program also includes a cyber incident response plan that provides controls and procedures for timely and accurate reporting of any material cybersecurity incident. The Audit Committee, which is tasked with oversight of certain risk issues, including cybersecurity and information security risk, receives an annual report from VF senior leadership, including the Chief Information Security Officer. The Audit Committee regularly briefs the Board on these matters, and the Board also receives periodic briefings on cyber threats to enhance our directors’ literacy on cybersecurity and information security issues.

COVID-19 PANDEMIC RESPONSE

The Board, together with management, has overseen our ongoing efforts to mitigate financial, human capital management and other risk exposures associated with the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic. The Audit Committee, which is tasked with oversight of health and safety matters, continues to assess measures to mitigate the spread of COVID-19 and respond to health advisories and related governmental actions and regulations. We have modified our business practices, including temporary closing of offices and retail stores, instituting travel bans and restrictions and implementing health and safety measures including social distancing and quarantines. We have also implemented measures that are designed to ensure the health, safety and well-being of associates employed in our distribution, fulfillment and manufacturing centers around the world.

Directors’ Compensation

The primary components of compensation for our non-employee directors are cash retainer, Lead Director and Committee Chair fees and equity-based grants of nonqualified stock options to purchase shares of VF Common Stock and restricted awards (restricted stock or restricted stock units (“RSUs”)) under VF’s 1996 Stock Compensation Plan. The Board sets directors’ compensation annually based on analysis of information provided by the independent compensation consultant to the Compensation Committee regarding director compensation at publicly traded companies of a size comparable to VF. The following describes our fiscal 2021 non-employee director compensation:

COMPENSATION ELEMENT |  | DIRECTOR COMPENSATION PROGRAM
Annual Retainer |  | $100,000
Annual Equity Retainer |  | Approximately $170,000 1 (split approximately equally between options and RSUs)
Committee Fees |  | None
Lead Director Fee |  | $30,000
Committee Chair Fee |  | $20,000
Meeting Fee for Board meeting in excess of ten meetings during the year |  | $2,000 per meeting
Special Assignments in connection with Board or Committee Activity |  | $1,000 per day per assignment
Stock Ownership Guidelines |  | Stock ownership with a fair market value equal to five times the annual retainer 2

1 | The actual dollar value for options and RSUs awarded to directors varies slightly due to sizing of equity awards, and for fiscal 2021 it was $169,947. Terms of the awards are described in the footnotes to the fiscal 2021 Independent Director Compensation table below.

2 | All of the directors have met the guideline targets for director stock ownership except for Ms. Wu, who is in a five-year period to achieve the guideline ownership level.

In response to the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, the Compensation Committee recommended, and the Board approved, a 100 percent reduction to the retainer fees paid to non-employee directors effective April 1, 2020 through August 8, 2020. Effective August 9, 2020, retainer fees were fully restored to pre-pandemic amounts.

Mr. Rendle, the only director who is an employee of VF, does not receive any compensation in addition to his regular compensation for service on the Board and attendance at meetings of the Board or any of its committees. VF does not provide pension, medical or life insurance benefits to its non-employee directors.

Each non-employee director may elect to defer all or part of his or her retainer and fees into equivalent units of VF Common Stock under the VF Deferred Savings Plan for Non-Employee Directors. All VF Common Stock equivalent units receive dividend equivalents. Deferred sums, including VF Common Stock equivalent units, are payable in cash to the participant upon termination of service or such later date specified in advance by the participant. Eight directors elected to defer compensation in calendar year 2020 and eight directors elected to defer compensation in calendar year 2021.

VF reimburses non-employee directors for travel and lodging expenses incurred in the performance of their duties. Directors traveling on VF business are covered by VF’s business travel accident insurance policy which generally covers all VF employees and directors. Directors are encouraged to attend formal training programs in areas relevant to the discharge of their duties as directors. VF reimburses expenses incurred by directors attending such programs. Directors are also eligible for discounts on VF products equal to discounts available to all employees of VF.

2 | Each director serving in fiscal 2021 was awarded 1,525 RSUs on May 19, 2020. The value in this column is the grant date fair value ($55.74 per RSU) computed in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 718. The assumptions used and the resulting weighted average value of RSUs granted during fiscal 2021 are summarized in Note 18 to VF’s consolidated financial statements included in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended April 3, 2021. These RSUs, which are vested and non-forfeitable at grant, remained outstanding on April 3, 2021, and at that date each non-employee director granted RSUs in fiscal 2021 held a total of 1,525 RSUs. RSUs earn dividend equivalents and are settled in shares of VF Common Stock one year after the date of grant.

3 | Each director serving in fiscal 2021 was awarded options to purchase 5,383 shares of VF Common Stock on May 19, 2020. The exercise price of the options is $55.74 per share. The value in this column is the grant date fair value ($15.78 per option) computed in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 718. The valuation assumptions used and the resulting weighted average value of stock options granted during fiscal 2021 are summarized in Note 18 to VF’s consolidated financial statements included in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended April 3, 2021. Options granted to non-employee directors have an exercise price equal to the fair market value of a share of VF Common Stock at the date of grant, are non-forfeitable, have a stated term of ten years and become exercisable one year after the date of grant. Upon a director’s separation from the Board, options are exercisable for 36 months but not after the expiration of the option term. Options to purchase shares of VF Common Stock were outstanding at the end of fiscal 2021 for each current non-employee director as follows: Richard T. Carucci, 57,414; Juliana L. Chugg, 57,414; Benno Dorer, 24,775; Mark S. Hoplamazian, 36,536; Laura W. Lang, 57,414; W. Alan McCollough, 42,349; W. Rodney McMullen, 31,055; Clarence Otis, Jr., 49,985; Carol L.

Compensation Discussion and Analysis

INTRODUCTION

This Compensation Discussion and Analysis explains VF’s executive compensation program, compensation philosophy and objectives, the components of executive compensation, and executive stock ownership. The focus of the analysis is on the Company’s named executive officers listed in the Summary Compensation Table (the “NEOs”):

NAME |  | TITLE
Steven E. Rendle |  | Chairman of the Board, President and Chief Executive Officer
Scott A. Roe(1) |  | Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer
Kevin D. Bailey |  | Executive Vice President and Group President, APAC & Emerging Brands
Martino Scabbia Guerrini |  | Executive Vice President and Group President, EMEA
Stephen M. Murray(2) |  | Global Brand President, The North Face

(1) | Mr. Roe retired as our Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer effective at the end of May 2021.

(2) | For fiscal 2021, Mr. Murray held the position of Executive Vice President and Group President – Americas ex Emerging Brands until October 12, 2020. On October 13, 2020, Mr. Murray was appointed as our Global Brand President, The North Face.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

Our Compensation Philosophy – VF’s Executive Compensation Program (the “Program”) is designed to:

| • |  | Enable VF to attract and retain talented executives

| • |  | Align our executives’ interests with those of shareholders by paying for performance

| • |  | Provide a high percentage of our executives’ total direct compensation in pay at risk and long-term equity-based compensation to reward performance over the short- and long-term and align the compensation of our executives with shareholder returns

Balance of Base Salary and At-Risk Pay for Performance Components – VF’s philosophy is that a significant portion of each executive’s total direct compensation should be at-risk, meaning subject to fluctuation based on VF’s financial performance and stock price performance. The at-risk components of total compensation targets are annual cash incentives and long-term equity compensation. The at-risk portion of target total compensation is progressively greater for higher level positions.

EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION
Compensation Discussion and Analysis

VF intends to continue this strategy of compensating its executives through programs that substantially link compensation to VF’s performance, with a view to striking an appropriate balance between the long-term and short-term performance of VF, and between VF’s financial performance and shareholder return.

Fiscal 2021 Key Compensation Program Design Changes – Taking into consideration the significant impact of the COVID-19 global pandemic on all industries, for fiscal 2021 the Talent and Compensation Committee (the “Committee”) made key changes to VF’s compensation programs outlined below to appropriately drive business continuity and health as well as immediate and future growth. In addition, in consultation with its independent compensation consultant, the Committee delayed establishing the annual and long term incentive goals under VF’s Management Incentive Compensation Plan and VF’s Mid-Term Incentive Plan until the second quarter of fiscal 2021, to provide additional time to gain greater clarity of the potential impact of the pandemic on VF’s fiscal 2021 objectives. Finally, the Committee did not exercise discretion nor did it adjust any results for the impact of the pandemic to increase incentive compensation payouts for fiscal 2021.

FISCAL 2021 KEY COMPENSATION PROGRAM DESIGN CHANGES

Annual Cash Incentive Plan |  | Aligned weighting on metrics that measure VF’s achievement in executing VF’s Transformation and Enterprise Protection Strategies in response to the COVID-19 global pandemic •   Added a relative Total Revenue metric indicating VF’s performance against a 16-Company Apparel/Footwear Peer Set •   Added a total Digital Revenue metric •   Eliminated Net Income metric for fiscal 2021 •   Increased weighting of Free Cash Flow metric •   Reduced maximum payout opportunity from 200% to 150%
Long Term Incentive Plan |  | Performance-Based Restricted Stock Units (“PRSUs”) •   Simplified plan by reducing the number of metrics from four to three •   Moved to two core relative metrics to be measured over three fiscal years •   Embedded Total Shareholder Return (“TSR”) as one of the core metrics •   Added a profitability modifier

EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION
Compensation Discussion and Analysis

Our Governance Practices – Our executive compensation practices support good governance and mitigate excessive risk-taking. Below we highlight key compensation practices that we have implemented in our Program to promote the interests of shareholders and ensure responsible compensation and governance practices:

WHAT WE DO

Annual “say-on-pay” advisory vote for shareholders (approved by 91.4% of votes cast in 2020) |  | Pay-for-performance emphasis with a balance of short- and long-term incentives, using an array of key performance metrics
Alignment of executive compensation with shareholder returns through equity ownership and equity-based awards |  | Significant stock ownership guidelines for executives
Long-term incentive compensation tied to VF’s total shareholder return (“TSR”) relative to TSR of S&P 500 Consumer Discretionary companies |  | Claw-back provisions for cash and equity performance-based compensation
“Double trigger” required for severance under change-in-control agreements and for accelerated vesting of equity awards |  | Compensation consultant to the Committee is independent and free of conflicts

WHAT WE DO NOT DO

No excise tax gross-up payments |  | No back dating or re-pricing of stock options and stock appreciation rights
No hedging or pledging of VF Common Stock |  | No employment agreements for U.S.-based executive officers

At our 2020 Annual Meeting, shareholders showed strong support for our executive compensation program, with approximately 91% of the votes cast in favor of our advisory “say-on-pay” resolution.

Impact of COVID-19 and Enterprise Protection Strategy

Our business was significantly impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic throughout fiscal 2021. COVID-19 also impacted some of VF’s suppliers, including third-party manufacturers, logistics providers and other vendors. Throughout fiscal 2021 we continued the enterprise preservation actions that we initiated during the fourth quarter of fiscal 2020 when COVID-19 was declared a pandemic. We also pivoted and accelerated our digital and consumer centric transformation, while we continued to strengthen our portfolio with the acquisition of Supreme Holdings, Inc. (“Supreme”), which closed in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2021.

Our enterprise protection actions included: temporarily reducing our CEO’s base salary by 50 percent and the VF Executive Leadership Team’s base salaries by 25 percent; temporarily forgoing the cash retainer paid to VF’s Board of Directors; completing a $3 billion bond offering to establish a significant cash buffer to ensure near-term liquidity; temporarily suspending our share repurchase plan; and implementing cost controls to reduce discretionary spending.

As the global spread of COVID-19 continued, we remained first and foremost focused on a people-first approach that prioritized the health and well-being of our employees (while implementing no COVID-related furloughs or layoffs), customers, trade partners and consumers around the world. To help mitigate the spread of COVID-19 and in response to health advisories and governmental actions and regulations, we modified our business practices, including the temporary closing of offices and retail stores, instituting travel bans and restrictions, implementing health and safety measures including social distancing and quarantines.

Our quick and decisive actions to ensure liquidity allowed us to continue investing through this disruptive period, highlighted by our acquisition of Supreme®. Our aggressive control of inventory while prioritizing innovation allowed us to

Compensation Discussion and Analysis

maintain brand momentum while positioning us for a return to profitable growth beginning in the fourth quarter and into fiscal 2022. Finally, our disciplined discretionary spending and the launch of Project Enable (a multi-year initiative designed to enable our ability to accelerate and advance our business model transformation and position ourselves to drive long-term growth for all of our brands) supported operating leverage moving forward and the ability to direct more investment dollars to our highest priority growth investments.

As the fiscal year came to a close, we saw a continuation of sporadic store closures in Europe and North America, while our APAC-based stores largely remained open since re-opening during the summer of calendar 2020. The rollout of COVID-19 vaccines in combination with reduced case counts has continued to have a positive impact on our return to growth.

Fiscal 2021 Financial and Operational Highlights

Despite the headwind created by the COVID-19 global pandemic, our business delivered solid results. However, revenue and profit measures were negatively impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic. The following are highlights for continuing operations:

| • |  | Full year fiscal 2021 revenue decreased 12% to $9.2 billion.

| • |  | Full year fiscal 2021 Direct-to-Consumer revenue was down 5%; e-commerce revenue increased 67%.

| • |  | Full year fiscal 2021 International revenue decreased 7%; Greater China revenue increased 24%.

| • |  | Full year fiscal 2021 gross margin decreased 260 basis points to 52.7%.

| • |  | Full year fiscal 2021 diluted earnings per share decreased 42% to $0.91.

| • |  | Full year fiscal 2021 operating cash flow was $1.2 billion.

In addition, consumer engagement with our brands remained strong, and the secular trends related to casualization, health and wellness, and the desire to get outdoors have positioned us for growth in fiscal 2022. While the consumer discretionary environment has proven to be somewhat more difficult than expected, the performance of our business demonstrates the resilience of our portfolio.

While the full extent of these headwinds was not contemplated, we were able to more than absorb these impacts as a result of the continued strength of our Digital and China businesses, as well as better than expected performance from our The North Face® and Timberland® brands globally.

Based on performance against the defined metric, the performance payout for VF’s Management Incentive Compensation Plan was at 120.7% of target for fiscal 2021. The performance payout under VF’s Mid-Term Incentive Plan for the fiscal 2019-2021 performance period was at 40% of target.

End of Executive Summary

Compensation Programs

COMPENSATION PHILOSOPHY AND OBJECTIVES

The fundamental philosophy of our Programs is to pay for performance, through the alignment of our executives’ pay to the achievement of overall short- and long-term business strategies of VF. The Programs incorporates the following objectives:

| • |  | Motivate executives to accomplish VF’s short-term and long-term business objectives;

| • |  | Provide annual incentives to executives based on corporate, business group and individual performance;

| • |  | Provide executives with long-term equity-based compensation that aligns the interests of shareholders and executives, while retaining executives; and

| • |  | Offer total compensation that is competitive with other large U.S.-based companies with which VF may compete for executive talent.

Our Programs are designed to balance fixed and performance-based compensation components, and incentivize responsible achievement of multiple operating goals over one- and three-year periods. For the purpose of valuing total

Compensation Discussion and Analysis

direct compensation, the performance-based elements are valued at their grant date at target levels. Such awards also provide for above- and below-target payout levels and thereby directly motivate executives to achieve VF’s business goals, reward them for achieving and exceeding these goals and reduce compensation below target levels if goals are not achieved. No awards will be earned if a minimum threshold level of performance is not achieved.

Following are the Elements of our Programs:

TYPE |  | COMPONENT |  | ELEMENT |  | TERMS |  | OBJECTIVE |  | PERFORMANCE/ VESTING PERIOD
Fixed Compensation |  | Annual Base Salary |  | Cash |  | •   Fixed pay reflective of an executive’s role, responsibilities and individual performance •   Reviewed annually |  | •   Competitively compensate executives for their level of responsibility, skills, experience and sustained individual contribution |  | N/A
Performance- Based Compensation |  | Annual Incentive Awards |  | Cash |  | •   Variable, performance-based cash compensation earned based on achieving pre-established annual goals •   Annual payouts range from 0% to 150% of the targeted incentive opportunity |  | •   Link compensation to annual operating and strategic performance objectives |  | One Year
| Long-term Equity Incentive Awards |  | Performance- Based Restricted Stock Units (“PRSUs”) |  | •   Variable, performance-based equity compensation earned based on achieving pre-established financial goals and relative total shareholder return over a three-year performance period; represents 50% of long-term equity incentive award opportunity •   Payouts range from 0% to 225% of the targeted incentive opportunity •   Generally vest three years from grant date •   Dividend equivalent units accumulate during the vesting period, but remain subject to performance •   Paid in shares of VF Common Stock upon vesting |  | •   Link rewards to long-term operating performance and relative Total Shareholder Return •   Link rewards to shareholder value creation through stock price growth •   Aid in retention |  | Three Years
| Long-term Equity Incentive Awards |  | Stock Options |  | •   Represents 50% of long-term equity incentive award opportunity •   Generally vest one third each year for three years •   Expire after ten years •   Granted at fair market value |  | •   Link rewards to shareholder value creation through stock price growth •   Aid in retention |  | Up to Ten Years

In establishing the elements of executive compensation, the Committee, in consultation with its independent consultant, assesses whether the Program’s terms promote unnecessary risk-taking. In performing this assessment, the Committee reviews such compensation design elements as pay mix, performance metrics, performance goals and payout curves, payment timing and adjustments, equity incentives, stock ownership requirements, clawbacks and VF’s trading policies. After performing this analysis, the Committee has concluded that the Program does not promote excessive or unnecessary risk-taking.

Compensation Decision-Making Process – Roles and Responsibilities

THE TALENT AND COMPENSATION COMMITTEE
VF’s Talent and Compensation Committee, composed entirely of independent directors, reviews all components of the Program annually to confirm that they are necessary and appropriate to promote VF’s strategic objectives while considering the competitive marketplace for executive talent.

THE INDEPENDENT COMMITTEE CONSULTANT
The Compensation Committee retained FW Cook as its independent compensation consultant to assist the Committee in accomplishing its objectives for fiscal 2021. FW Cook is independent of VF, having no relationship with VF other than providing advisory services to the Committee. In reviewing FW Cook’s independence, the Committee has considered the six factor test prescribed under NYSE rules. The Committee has sole authority to retain or terminate the service of its compensation consultant and to establish the fees to be paid to the consultant.
•   At the Compensation Committee’s instruction annually, independently prepare an analysis of compensation data relating to the Chairman and Chief Executive Officer and report to the Committee on the compensation data provided by management regarding the other NEOs •   At the Committee’s request, a representative of FW Cook attended all meetings and executive sessions of the Committee in fiscal 2021 |  | •   Advises the Committee on current executive compensation practices that meet high governance standards, as well as current market trends, regulatory issues and developments related to executive compensation and director compensation •   Periodically reviews the peer group of publicly traded apparel/retail and consumer products companies whose compensation data is used by the Committee in its process of establishing compensation targets (collectively, the “Peer Group”) •   Advises the Committee on the relationship between Chief Executive Officer pay and performance

Compensation Discussion and Analysis

VF MANAGEMENT
As requested by the Compensation Committee, management is responsible for providing FW Cook with information to facilitate its role in advising the Committee and preparing information for each Committee meeting.
•   The Executive Vice President, Chief Human Resources Officer and Public Affairs and the Chairman and Chief Executive Officer generally attend Compensation Committee meetings, except the executive sessions that are held as part of each meeting •   Work with the Committee Chair to prepare the agenda for each meeting •   The Chairman and Chief Executive Officer makes recommendations to the Committee regarding compensation for NEOs (other than himself) •   The Chairman and Chief Executive Officer provides the Committee with a self-assessment based on achievement of the agreed-upon objectives and other leadership accomplishments |  | •   Provide information on VF’s strategic objectives to the Committee and make recommendations to the Committee regarding business performance targets and objectives for all senior executives including the Chairman and Chief Executive Officer •   In consultation with FW Cook, recommend for the Committee’s consideration the Peer Group whose compensation data is used by the Committee, based on management’s knowledge of the publicly traded companies with which VF is most likely to compete for top executives

COMPETITIVE COMPENSATION TARGETS AND THE ROLE OF THE PEER GROUP

In 2020, FW Cook and management each independently utilized data from the Willis Towers Watson (“Towers”) executive compensation database, which includes executive compensation data for over 800 U.S.-based companies (the “Comparison Data”), to assist in establishing compensation targets for fiscal 2021.

| • |  | The Comparison Data was provided by Towers on an aggregated basis: it reported actual salary levels and target levels of performance-based compensation and was adjusted to April 2020 using a three percent annual update factor.

| • |  | Towers used regression analysis to size-adjust the compensation data due to significant variance in size among the companies compared to VF’s approximate annual revenue range.

| • |  | Neither the Committee nor management receives or uses information on any subset of the Towers database and the Committee and management are not aware of the identities of the individual companies in the database.

| • |  | FW Cook utilized that data to recommend compensation targets for the Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, and the Chairman and Chief Executive Officer utilized the data to recommend compensation targets for the other named executive officers.

In addition, the Committee utilizes the Peer Group to evaluate whether executive officer pay levels are reasonable on a relative basis.

PEER GROUP

The Committee reviewed the composition of the fiscal 2020 Peer Group and determined to make no changes to the Peer Group for fiscal 2021. The fiscal 2021 Peer Group constituent companies fall into the following business types:

26 VF CORPORATION | 2021 ANNUAL MEETING OF SHAREHOLDERS

##### Table of Contents

EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION
Compensation Discussion and Analysis

The Committee primarily identifies companies that are of comparable size (based on revenue and market capitalization), and meet a majority of several criteria, such as:

| • |  | having significant non-US (greater than 30%) revenue,

| • |  | having similar products and/or customers,

| • |  | having a significant number of brands (at least 10, excluding licensed brands to the extent possible),

| • |  | considers VF as a compensation peer,

| • |  | is a frequent peer of peers being listed as a compensation peer in at least four other current peer companies, and

| • |  | is a 2020 peer company identified by Institutional Shareholder Services (ISS), a leading independent proxy advisory firm.

The Committee sets target total direct compensation (base salary, target annual cash incentive awards and target annual long-term equity incentive award values) for senior executives generally between the 50th and 75th percentile of the Comparison Data (subject to the fluctuation of foreign exchange rates for executives paid in currency other than the U.S. dollar). The Committee considers the scope of the executive’s duties, the executive’s experience in his or her role and individual performance relative to his or her peers to establish the appropriate point within that range of percentiles, or outside the range under circumstances that justify a deviation. For purposes of evaluating Chairman and CEO compensation data, the Committee excluded the anomalous compensation data for the CEO of Nordstrom, Inc.

For fiscal 2021, the target total direct compensation was within the 50th to 75th percentile range for each NEO. In general, the Committee believes that it should set total direct compensation targets for VF’s senior executives within this range to appropriately motivate and reward strong performance and retain top talent at a reasonable cost to VF as indicated by the available data. The Committee targets total direct compensation for each VF executive officer to be competitive with compensation paid to executives in comparable positions according to the Comparison Data based on targeted rigorous performance goals established by the Committee. Thus, the Committee balances the elements of total direct compensation – salary, annual cash incentives and long-term equity incentives – in this process. Benefits are set at levels intended to be competitive but are not included in the Committee’s evaluation of total direct compensation. The Committee may also provide retention awards, but these are not considered in VF’s total direct compensation for purposes of setting target levels of NEO compensation. No retention awards were granted to NEOs in fiscal 2021.

The components of the target total direct compensation opportunity set by the Committee annually for each executive are short-term cash compensation (annual base salary and target annual cash incentive award) and long-term equity incentive compensation (stock options and PRSUs under VF’s Mid-Term Incentive Plan). The Committee generally allocates between total cash compensation and equity compensation in a way intended to be competitive with the Comparison Data and the Peer Group. The Committee also considers historical compensation levels, relative compensation levels among VF’s senior executives, and VF’s corporate performance as compared to the performance of companies in the Peer Group.

The portions of fiscal 2021 target total direct compensation for each of the compensation elements for the NEOs were as follows:

EXECUTIVE |  | BASE SALARY |  | ANNUAL CASH INCENTIVE AWARD |  | LONG-TERM EQUITY INCENTIVE AWARDS |  | AT-RISK PORTION*
Mr. Rendle |  | 10% |  | 18% |  | 72% |  | 90%
Mr. Roe |  | 21% |  | 21% |  | 58% |  | 79%
Mr. Bailey |  | 18% |  | 18% |  | 64% |  | 82%
Mr. Scabbia Guerrini |  | 21% |  | 17% |  | 62% |  | 79%
Mr. Murray |  | 19% |  | 15% |  | 66% |  | 81%

* At-risk Portion includes Annual Cash Incentive Award and Long-term Equity Incentive Awards.

Components of Total Direct Compensation

BASE SALARY

Base salary is designed to compensate executives for their level of responsibility, skills, experience and sustained individual contribution. Base salary is intended to be competitive as compared to salary levels for equivalent executive positions at companies in the Comparison Data and the Peer Group. The Committee believes that a competitive base salary provides the foundation for the total compensation package required to attract, retain and motivate executives in alignment with VF’s business strategies.

Target salary ranges and individual salaries for the named executive officers are reviewed by the Committee annually, as well as at the time of a promotion or other change in responsibilities. Each named executive officer is evaluated annually based on several components: key job responsibilities, key accomplishments and annual goals and objectives. The resulting performance evaluations are presented to the Committee to be used in assessing each component of total compensation for each NEO.

Annual base salary increases for each named executive officer are based on (i) an assessment of the individual’s performance, (ii) the competitive market salary range for the individual’s position, and (iii) VF’s overall merit increase budget for salaries. In addition, the Committee considers substantial increases in an executive’s responsibilities in setting base salary increases.

Generally, base salaries of the named executive officers are approved by the Committee members and all other independent members of the Board of Directors. For fiscal 2021, the base salaries for our NEOs remained unchanged from the prior year. Additionally, in response to the challenges presented by the pandemic and as part of our proactive Enterprise Protection Strategy, the base salary of our CEO was reduced by 50 percent and the base salaries of our other NEOs were reduced by 25 percent for a four-month period. Annual base salary rates from fiscal 2020 to fiscal 2021 for the NEOs, as well as the actual salary amounts paid to the NEOs in fiscal 2021, are set forth below:

EXECUTIVE |  | FY2020 BASE SALARY |  | FY2021 BASE SALARY |  | % CHANGE vs FY2020 BASE SALARY |  | FY2021 ACTUAL SALARY PAID
Mr. Rendle |  |  |  | $1,300,000 |  |  |  |  | $1,300,000 |  |  |  |  | 0 | % |  |  |  | $1,089,863 |
Mr. Roe |  |  |  | $ 875,000 |  |  |  |  | $ 875,000 |  |  |  |  | 0 | % |  |  |  | $ 804,281 |

ANNUAL CASH INCENTIVES

VF has a cash incentive plan for the named executive officers, the VF Management Incentive Compensation Plan (“MIC Plan”). The MIC Plan focuses executive attention on annual VF performance as measured by pre-established goals. The incentives are designed to motivate VF’s executives by providing payments for achieving and exceeding goals related to VF’s annual business plan and strategic priorities. The MIC Plan framework also applies to all eligible participants, including employees who are not named executive officers, and payouts as a percentage of target for all eligible participants are aligned with such payouts for the named executive officers.

Compensation Discussion and Analysis

The Committee used the competitive external Comparison Data to assist it in establishing targeted dollar amounts to award each named executive under the MIC Plan. The Committee establishes each named executive’s targeted annual incentive opportunity under the MIC Plan after consideration of compensation data and the recommendations of the Chairman and Chief Executive Officer and FW Cook. The Committee also makes a general assessment as to the relative amounts of annual incentives for the NEOs to make sure they are, in the Committee’s judgment, fair and reasonable. For fiscal 2021, the annual cash incentive target amount for our NEOs remained unchanged from the prior year in alignment with our proactive Enterprise Protection Strategy, while the Committee reduced the maximum payout opportunity from 200% to 150% to further align VF’s incentive program with the interests of its stakeholders. The annual cash incentive targets from fiscal 2020 to fiscal 2021 for the NEOs, as well as the fiscal 2021 payout range, are set forth below:

EXECUTIVE |  | FY2020 ANNUAL CASH INCENTIVE TARGET AMOUNT |  | FY2021 ANNUAL CASH INCENTIVE TARGET AMOUNT(1) |  | % CHANGE VS FY2020 |  | FY2021 PAYOUT % OPPORTUNITY(2)
Mr. Rendle |  |  |  | $2,400,000 |  |  |  |  | $2,400,000 |  |  |  |  | 0 | % |  | 0 – 150% |

(2) | For fiscal 2021, the maximum payout opportunity was reduced from 200% to 150%.

Our Performance Goals – Under the MIC Plan, performance goals are set each year by the Committee. The pandemic caused worldwide uncertainty and disrupted the global pandemic as well as VF’s business strategy and value creation model. As a result, and taking into consideration the new challenges faced by VF in the midst of COVID-19 and in consultation with FW Cook, the Committee made design changes to VF’s MIC Plan and delayed establishing the annual goals under the MIC Plan until the second quarter of fiscal 2021, to provide additional time to gain greater clarity of the potential impact of the pandemic on VF’s fiscal 2021 objectives. The Committee replaced the Net Income goal with a new Total Digital Revenue goal to focus VF’s efforts on the strategic importance of VF’s digital transformation and e-commerce growth plans. A relative Total Revenue goal replaced the absolute Total Revenue goal, recognizing the importance of measuring VF’s market share of Total Revenue as compared to a 16-Company Apparel/Footwear Peer Set (the “Performance Peer Set”). The following companies comprise the Performance Peer Set:

THE PERFORMANCE PEER SET
Adidas AG* Asics Canada Goose Holdings Inc. The Columbia Sportswear Company |  | Deckers Outdoor Corporation Gap, Inc.* Levi Strauss and Company* lululemon athletica, inc.* |  | Moncler S.p.A. Nike, Inc.* Puma SE PVH Corporation* |  | Ralph Lauren Corporation* Skechers USA, Inc. Under Armour, Inc.* Wolverine World Wide, Inc.

* | Represents a Peer Group company for Compensation Data.

About the Performance Peer Set – For purposes of measuring relative business performance, the Committee chose the 16 apparel and/or footwear companies with which VF competes most for a share of consumer spending. Not all of the companies in the Performance Peer Set meet the size criteria (revenue and market capitalization) used in selecting the Peer Group and are therefore excluded from the Peer Group on that basis.

Fiscal 2021 Performance Goals – In summary, the Committee chose the following goals as the most impactful drivers of VF’s strategic growth plans, its digital transformation plan and Enterprise Protection Strategy in response to the COVID-19 outbreak:

|  | FISCAL 2021 GOAL |  | EXPLANATION |  | RATIONALE
|  | Market Share of Total Revenue(1) |  | Measures VF’s total revenue as a percentage of the Performance Peer Set. |  | Indicates the degree to which VF is successful in capturing market share growth within the apparel/footwear peers against which it is competing for consumers’ spend.
| Digital Revenue(1)(2) |  | Measures total VF Digital Revenue performance against absolute targets. |  | Indicates the company’s progress against Digital growth and transformation objectives.
| Free Cash Flow(3) |  | Measures cash from operations after accounting for operating expenses and capital expenditures. |  | Indicates the financial strength and resiliency of the company and allows it to return earnings to shareholders through dividends and pursue opportunities that enhance shareholder value.
| Net Revenues of acquired businesses(4) |  | In years in which VF acquires a business or businesses the metric “Net revenues of acquired businesses” is applied as a modifier to the sum of the results achieved on each objective (excluding “Net revenues of acquired businesses”). |  | Indicates the success of the inorganic growth strategy of the company as part of its broader portfolio strategy.
|  | Total Revenue(1) |  | Measures Total Region Revenue performance against absolute targets. |  | Key measure of top line growth at the Region level indicating contribution to overall profitability.
| Digital Revenue(1)(2) |  | Measures Total Region Digital Revenue performance against absolute targets. |  | Indicates the Region’s progress against Digital growth and transformation objectives.
| Segment Profit(5) |  | Profitability measure that measures Operating Income plus other income (expense) as a percentage of total revenue. |  | A profitability measure at the region level that indicates the region’s ability to maintain appropriate levels of profit as a proportion of total revenue while managing controllable expenses.
|  | Strategic Goals – Individual NEO |  | Individual goals and metrics focused on progress against key enterprise and/or regional transformational programs, portfolio/function optimization, and Inclusion and Diversity. |  | Performance goals approved by the Committee structured around key drivers of VF’s strategic growth plans and value creation model.

(1) | Total Revenue and Digital Revenue are based on VF’s continuing operations and are measured on a constant currency basis, which is a non-GAAP financial measure that excludes the impact of translating foreign currencies into U.S. dollars. To calculate measures on a constant currency basis, the amounts in the current year for entities reporting in currencies other than the U.S. dollar are translated into U.S. dollars at the average exchange rates in effect during the comparable period of the prior year, which represent the foreign exchange rates used in VF’s fiscal 2021 financial plan at the time the Committee set the targets. Additionally, Total Revenue, Digital Revenue and Market Share exclude the results related to the acquired Supreme® business after the acquisition date.

(2) | In the event results achieved for Market Share of Total Revenue or Total Revenue fall below target, Digital Revenue performance will be capped at a maximum achievement level of 90%.

(3) | Free Cash Flow is a non-GAAP financial measure that is calculated based on VF’s cash flow provided by operating activities from continuing operations on a GAAP basis less capital expenditures, software purchases and the results related to the acquired Supreme® business after the acquisition date.

EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION
Compensation Discussion and Analysis

(4) | For fiscal 2021, the Net Revenues of Acquired Businesses reflect the net revenues from the acquired Supreme® business after the acquisition date.

(5) | Segment Profit is a non-GAAP financial measure that is calculated based on VF’s income from continuing operations on a GAAP basis plus (or minus) other income (expense) as a percentage of Total Revenue. These measures are calculated on a constant currency basis, which is further explained above. Segment Profit also reflects the impact of other non-GAAP adjustments, which during fiscal 2021 include i) the results of the acquired Supreme® business after the acquisition date as well as transaction and transaction-related costs primarily associated with the Supreme® acquisition and ii) costs related to specified strategic business decisions primarily associated with the strategic review of the Occupational Workwear business, a transformation initiative for the Asia-Pacific regional operations, wind down activities in South America and other business model transformation initiatives.

The Committee established target performance goals as described below to determine the actual payouts to the executives. While it is the policy of the Committee to provide opportunities for annual incentive compensation for achievement of pre-established performance goals based primarily on financial measures, the Committee also retains discretion to pay bonuses apart from the MIC Plan reflecting its subjective assessment of the value of accomplishments of VF’s executive officers which, in the Committee’s view, cannot always be anticipated in advance or reflected in such pre-established goals.

As shown in the table below, the Committee established the performance goals for three different business performance elements for fiscal 2021. It then weighted the three elements for each executive, as applicable. As it does each year, the Committee chose weightings that are intended to strike an appropriate balance between aligning each executive’s individual objectives with VF’s overall corporate objectives while holding the executive accountable for performance in the executive’s particular area of responsibility.

(1) | Mr. Murray’s performance goals during his prior role as EVP and Group President – Americas ex Emerging Brands were weighted 50% VF Enterprise Goals / 30% VF Region Goals / 20% Individual Strategic Goals. His performance goals as of his appointment as a Global Brand President, The North Face were 40% VF Enterprise Goals / 40% Global Brand Goals (including The North Face® and Dickies®) / 20% Individual Strategic Goals.

The choice of which objectives are used and the relative weightings given to each objective varies (i) among named executive officers depending upon the business for which each named executive officer is responsible and (ii) from time to time based on VF’s strategic business goals. In July 2020, target performance goals for fiscal 2021 for the named executive officers were set by the Committee after considering criteria and weighting recommended by management as well as advice from FW Cook. Also, in January 2021, target performance goals were set for Mr. Murray in connection with his new role as Global Brand President, The North Face.

The objectives for the VF Performance Targets and the Regional Performance Targets have different ranges of achievement. Each component of the objectives then

| (3) | using the Company’s long-standing methodology, excludes any difference between actual foreign exchange rates and the foreign exchange rates used in VF’s fiscal 2021 financial plan at the time the Committee set the targets.

The performance targets were set in alignment with VF’s strategy to deliver consistent, profitable growth that provides sustainable, long-term returns for VF’s shareholders while considering the shorter term reality of global industry disruption as a result of the impact of COVID-19 on the global economy. The targets reflected a number of factors, including the impacts of recent acquisitions and planned synergies, VF’s strategic growth plan and value creation model and long-term commitments to our shareholders as outlined in our strategic 2021 plan.

Fiscal 2021 Performance Summary – In determining the payout for fiscal 2021 performance, the Committee considered achievement against all pre-set enterprise, region and strategic goals as applicable to each NEO as described above, and determined to fund payout for fiscal 2021 performance at 120.5% for Mr. Rendle, 117.5% for Mr. Roe, 106.8% for Mr. Bailey, 110.5% for Mr. Scabbia Guerrini and 104.6% for Mr. Murray.

The following chart provides a summary of performance achievement against each enterprise and region goal as applied for each NEO:

(1) | Goals applicable to Mr. Murray in his role as EVP and Group President, Americas ex Emerging Brands (from March 29, 2020 through October 12, 2020).

(2) | Goals applicable to Mr. Murray in his role as Global Brand President, The North Face (from October 13, 2020 through April 3, 2021).

Refer to discussion above within the “Fiscal 2021 Performance Goals” section for additional details regarding the performance goals and how each measure is calculated.

Performance Against Individual Strategic Objectives – In determining the payout for fiscal 2021 performance for the portion of each NEO’s individual strategic goals, the Committee considered progress against key enterprise and/or regional transformational programs, portfolio/function optimization, and Inclusion and Diversity.

Performance achievement is applied to each NEO’s weighting with overall performance results and earned annual incentives shown in the table below. Amounts may vary slightly due to rounding.

(1) | Mr. Murray’s fiscal 2021 earned Annual Incentive award was calculated on a pro-rata basis for his time in each role held by him in fiscal 2021.

The payments made to the named executive officers under the MIC Plan are set forth in the Non-Equity Incentive Plan Compensation column of the Summary Compensation Table on page 40.

PERFORMANCE-BASED RESTRICTED STOCK UNITS

Under VF’s Mid-Term Incentive Plan (“MTIP”), executives are awarded performance-based RSUs (“PRSUs”) that give them the opportunity to earn shares of VF Common Stock for performance achieved over three-year cycles. PRSUs provide long-term incentive compensation for executives with the objectives of providing a focus on long-term value and increasing stock ownership. PRSUs are designed to align the interests of VF’s executives with those of shareholders by encouraging the executives to enhance the value of VF Common Stock. In addition, through three-year performance periods, this component of the Program is designed to create an incentive for individual executives to remain with VF. MTIP awards are forfeitable upon an executive’s termination of employment, except for the following:

| (i) | a pro rata portion of the award will be deemed earned in the event of death or disability,

| (ii) | awards continue to accrue in full to the benefit of individuals who retire, provided that the individual was employed by VF for the first fiscal year of the cycle (subject to compliance with restrictive covenants),

| (iii) | a pro rata portion of the award will be deemed earned in the event of a termination of the executive’s employment by VF without cause prior to a change in control, with pro-ration based on the part of the performance period in which the executive remained employed plus any period during which severance payments will be made, provided the individual was an active participant for the first full fiscal year of the cycle, and

| (iv) | the full award at the higher of target performance or actual performance achieved through the date of termination will be deemed earned in the event of a termination by VF without cause or by the executive for good reason after a change in control of VF.

Dividend equivalents are paid on the shares actually paid out under the MTIP (no dividend equivalents are paid on any portion of the MTIP award not earned); at the payout date, the cash value of dividend equivalents is converted into additional shares.

Compensation Discussion and Analysis

Fiscal 2021-2023 Award Cycle – For fiscal 2021, the Committee established the following three-year performance goals for the MTIP based on VF’s financial performance metrics as well as a relative performance metric to further align executive compensation with shareholder value creation.

FY2021 – FY2023 PERFORMANCE GOALS |  | WEIGHTING
3-Year Revenue CAGR vs Performance Peer Set |  | 50%
3-Year TSR vs S&P 500 Consumer Discretionary* |  | 50%

* | The TSR performance period for the fiscal 2021 award is from August 1, 2020 through March 31, 2023.

Payout under the fiscal 2021-2023 award cycle is calculated as follows:

The participant’s target number of PRSUs is multiplied by the payout percentage corresponding to the level of achievement against the three-year performance goals established at the beginning of the three-year performance cycle by the Committee (between 0% and 200% of the participant’s target award). The second component, a three-year Gross Margin Rate Improvement target, modifies performance by a maximum additional 25% or a maximum reduction of 25% on a straight-line interpolated basis.

(1) | Results will be calculated based on a straight-line interpolation between Min/Target/Max

(2) | + / - percentage will be determined by interpolation with maximum +25% add-on and -25% maximum reduction

As a result of including this modifier, actual payouts may range from 0% to 225% of the targeted award. An additional number of shares equal to the dollar value of the dividends that would have accrued (without compounding) are added to the shares subject to the payout.

Award Cycles Preceding Fiscal 2021 – For award cycles preceding fiscal 2021 (specifically, fiscal 2019-2021 and fiscal 2020-2022), the Committee established the following three-year performance goals for the MTIP based on VF’s financial performance metrics as well as a relative performance metric to further align executive compensation with shareholder value creation.

THREE-YEAR PERFORMANCE GOALS |  | WEIGHTING
Earnings Per Share Growth |  | 50%
Revenue Growth |  | 30%
Gross Margin Growth |  | 20%

Payout under the plan is calculated as follows:

The participant’s target number of PRSUs is multiplied by the payout percentage corresponding to the level of achievement against the three-year performance goals established at the beginning of the three-year performance cycle by the Committee (between 0% and 200% of the participant’s target award). The second component, a relative performance metric, will be based on VF’s total shareholder return (“TSR”), as compared to the TSR generated by the S&P 500 Consumer Discretionary companies during the applicable three-year period. At the end of the three-year performance period, the payout for each participant will:

| (i) | remain unchanged if VF’s TSR is between the 75th and 25th percentile of TSR of the S&P 500 Consumer Discretionary companies over the period,

| (ii) | increase in the amount of 25% of the participant’s target award if VF’s TSR is greater than or equal to the 75th percentile of TSR of the S&P 500 Consumer Discretionary companies over the period, or

| (iii) | decrease in the amount of 25% of the participant’s target award if VF’s TSR is equal to or below the 25th percentile of TSR of the S&P 500 Consumer Discretionary companies over the period.

Compensation Discussion and Analysis

As a result of including this relative performance metric, actual payouts may range from 0% to 225% of the targeted award. An additional number of shares equal to the dollar value of the dividends that would have accrued (without compounding) are added to the shares subject to the payout.

In May 2021, in determining the results for the fiscal 2019-2021 performance period, the Committee considered achievement against the three 3-year goals that were established at the beginning of the performance cycle. The global uncertainty and disruption driven by the COVID-19 pandemic resulted in a negative impact on both Revenue and EPS growth which declined during the final year of the performance cycle, resulting in below threshold achievement. During the same performance cycle, the Gross Margin rate increased and over-achieved above maximum threshold for a combined payout of 40%, as shown in the chart below. VF TSR for the performance period was between the 75th and 25th percentile of the S&P 500 Consumer Discretionary companies. Therefore, no adjustment was made to the performance result shown below.

The PRSU payout made in May 2021 for the 2019-2021 performance period is set forth on the 2021 Option Exercises and Stock Vested table on page 44. The PRSU target award amounts made to the named executive officers in July 2020 for the 2021-2023 performance period are set forth in the 2021 Grants of Plan-Based Awards table on page 42. The grant-date fair value of the PRSU target awards for the three-year performance period beginning in each of fiscal 2019, fiscal 2020 and fiscal 2021 is reflected in the Stock Awards column of the Summary Compensation Table on page 40.

STOCK OPTIONS

Stock options awarded under the 1996 Stock Compensation Plan, as amended and restated as of February 10, 2015 (the “Stock Plan”), are intended to align executives’ and shareholders’ interests and focus executives on attainment of VF’s long-term goals. Stock options provide executives with the opportunity to acquire an equity interest in VF and to share in the appreciation of the value of the stock. They also provide a long-term incentive for the executive to remain with VF and promote shareholder returns. The Committee determines a value of options awarded to named executive officers as a component of the target total direct compensation.

Non-qualified stock options have a term of not greater than ten years and become exercisable not less than one year after the date of grant. Options are exercisable only so long as the option holder remains an employee of VF or its subsidiaries, except that, subject to earlier expiration of the option term, and to the specific terms and definitions contained in the

VF CORPORATION | 2021 ANNUAL MEETING OF SHAREHOLDERS 35

##### Table of Contents

EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION
Compensation Discussion and Analysis

Stock Plan, options generally remain exercisable for the period severance payments are made (if any) in the case of involuntary termination of employment, and for 36 months after death, retirement or termination of employment due to disability, provided that such continued vesting after retirement requires that the employee was employed by VF on the last day of the fiscal year in which the option was granted, as well as compliance with restrictive covenants in the event of retirement.

In addition, in accordance with the executives’ Change-in-Control Agreements described on page 37, upon an executive’s qualifying termination of employment following a change in control of VF, vesting of the options is accelerated and all of the options become exercisable by the executive.

RESTRICTED STOCK UNITS

Time-based restricted stock units (“RSUs”) awarded under the Stock Plan consist of awards of the right to receive stock as determined by the Committee at the end of a specified restricted period. The Committee may award dividend equivalents relating to RSUs on terms and conditions as it determines; provided that such dividend equivalents may not be paid before the underlying RSUs vest. In fiscal 2021, no RSUs were granted to named executive officers.

RETENTION AND SPECIAL AWARDS

Retention awards of restricted stock or restricted stock units are made by the Committee from time to time to attract or retain key executives and are designed to reward long-term employment with VF. Awards of restricted stock or restricted stock units for retention purposes under the Stock Plan are not part of regular annual compensation and are not treated as part of total direct compensation as discussed above. In fiscal 2021, no special awards were granted to named executive officers.

POLICY FOR THE RECOVERY OF AWARDS OR PAYMENTS IN THE EVENT OF FINANCIAL RESTATEMENT

The Board of Directors has adopted a policy for the recovery of cash and equity performance-based compensation from executives (these are generally referred to as “recoupment” or “clawback” policies). The policy provides that the Board may require an executive to forfeit a performance-based award or repay performance-based compensation if VF is required to prepare an accounting restatement as a result of misconduct, if such executive knowingly caused or failed to prevent such misconduct. The award agreements for stock options and RSUs under the Stock Plan include provisions respecting such recovery, as does the MIC Plan.

POLICY REGARDING HEDGING OR PLEDGING OF VF COMMON STOCK

The Board of Directors has adopted a policy prohibiting VF’s directors, executive officers named in this proxy statement and certain other executives from engaging in transactions in derivative securities (including puts, calls, collars, forward contracts, equity swaps, exchange funds and the like) relating to VF securities (whether granted to the director or executive as part of the compensation of the director or executive or held, directly or indirectly, by the director or executive), transactions “hedging” the risk of ownership of VF securities and short sales of VF securities. In addition, VF’s directors, NEOs and certain other executives are prohibited from holding VF securities in margin accounts or pledging VF securities as collateral for loans.

Retirement and Other Benefits

The Committee believes that retirement and other benefits are important components of competitive compensation packages necessary to attract and retain qualified senior executives. The Committee reviews the amounts of the benefits annually along with other compensation components. However, the benefits do not affect the decisions the Committee makes regarding other compensation components, which are generally structured to achieve VF’s short-term and long-term financial objectives. Mr. Scabbia Guerrini, who is not a U.S. resident, does not participate in VF’s Pension Plan, Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan or Executive Deferred Savings Plan described below. His benefits are described in footnote 5 to the 2021 Pension Benefits Table on page 46.

PENSION BENEFITS

VF sponsors and maintains the VF Corporation Pension Plan (the “Pension Plan”), a tax-qualified defined benefit plan that covers most of VF’s U.S.-based employees who were employed by VF on or before December 31, 2004, including Messrs. Rendle and Roe. The purpose of the Pension Plan is to provide retirement benefits for those employees who qualify for such benefits under the provisions of the Pension Plan. The Pension Plan is discussed in further detail under the caption “Pension Benefits” on page 45. The Pension Plan was closed to new participants at the end of 2004. Effective December 31, 2018, the Pension Plan ceased to recognize any future service performance and any eligible compensation paid for purposes of calculating participant accrued benefits under the Pension Plan (i.e., no additional benefits accrue after such date). As of December 31, 2018, Messrs. Rendle and Roe were the only NEOs who participated in the Pension Plan, and none of our other NEOs have ever participated in the Pension Plan.

SUPPLEMENTAL EXECUTIVE RETIREMENT PLAN

Messrs. Rendle and Roe participate in a Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan (“SERP”). The SERP is an unfunded, nonqualified plan for eligible participants primarily designed to restore benefits lost under the Pension Plan due to the maximum legal limit of pension benefits imposed under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 and the Internal Revenue Code (the “Code”). The SERP was closed to new participants at the end of 2004. Effective December 31, 2018, the SERP ceased to recognize any future service performance and any eligible compensation paid for purposes of calculating participant accrued benefits under the SERP (i.e., no additional benefits accrue after such date). As of December 31, 2018, Messrs. Rendle and Roe were the only NEOs who participated in the SERP, and none of our other NEOs have ever participated in the SERP.

401K PLAN

During fiscal 2021, U.S.-based named executive officers were permitted to participate in the VF Retirement Savings Plan (the “401k Plan”). The 401k Plan is a broad-based tax-qualified defined contribution plan available to most U.S.-based employees of VF. The 401k Plan is described in further detail under the caption “Nonqualified Deferred Compensation” on page 47.

NONQUALIFIED DEFERRED COMPENSATION

VF’s U.S.-based senior executives, including the U.S.-based named executive officers, are permitted to defer compensation and receive a limited amount of matching credits under the VF Corporation Executive Deferred Savings Plan. This plan enables executives to save for retirement on a tax-deferred basis. Nonqualified deferred compensation is discussed in further detail under the caption “Nonqualified Deferred Compensation” on page 47.

EMPLOYEE BENEFITS

VF provides a number of benefit plans to all eligible employees, including the named executive officers. These benefits include programs such as medical, dental, life insurance and short- and long-term disability coverage and a merchandise discount on most VF products. The named executive officers are also eligible for financial counseling and an annual executive physical.

CHANGE-IN-CONTROL AGREEMENTS

VF has entered into Change-in-Control Agreements (the “Agreements”) with certain VF senior executives, including the named executive officers, that provide the executives with certain severance benefits in the event their employment with VF is terminated by VF or by the executive for good reason, as defined in the Agreements, subsequent to a change in control of VF. The Agreements are designed to reinforce and encourage the continued attention and dedication of such executives to their assigned duties without distraction in the face of the potentially disturbing circumstances arising from the possibility of a change in control of VF. VF believes that change-in-control arrangements are an important component of a competitive compensation package necessary to attract and retain qualified senior executives. The Agreements are described and quantified below in the “Potential Payments Upon Change in Control, Retirement or Termination of Employment” section on page 48.

EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION
Compensation Discussion and Analysis

Total payments to be made to an executive in the event of termination of employment upon a change in control of VF may constitute excess “parachute payments” (as that term is defined in the Code). During 2011, the Committee eliminated the gross up feature.

Under the terms of the Agreements, the executives would also be entitled to supplemental benefits, such as accelerated rights to exercise stock options, accelerated lapse of restrictions on restricted stock and RSUs, lump sum payments under the VF SERP, and continued life and medical insurance for specified periods after qualifying termination. Upon a change in control of VF, VF would also pay all reasonable legal fees and related expenses incurred by the executive as a result of the termination of his or her employment or in obtaining or enforcing any right or benefit provided by the Agreements.

PAYMENTS UPON SEPARATION

None of the named executive officers have contractual rights to receive separation payments if they terminate their employment or are terminated with or without cause prior to a change in control of VF.

Tax Considerations

Section 162(m) of the Code generally limits the deductibility by VF for Federal income tax purposes of annual compensation in excess of $1 million paid to certain executive officers, subject to a transition rule for compensation payable pursuant to a written binding contract that was in effect on November 2, 2017, that is not materially modified after that date. When designing VF’s executive compensation programs, the Committee believes that it needs to consider all relevant factors that attract, retain and reward talent. The Committee has not adopted a policy requiring all compensation to be tax-deductible. Therefore, the Committee will continue to maintain the flexibility to award compensation that may not be tax-deductible. In addition, the Committee reserves the right to modify compensation that was initially intended to be exempt from Section 162(m) if it determines that such modifications are consistent with VF’s business needs.

EXECUTIVE STOCK OWNERSHIP GUIDELINES

It is VF’s policy to strongly encourage stock ownership by VF senior management. This policy closely aligns the interests of management with those of shareholders. Senior executives are subject to share ownership guidelines that require them to accumulate, over a five-year period, and then retain, shares of VF Common Stock having a market value ranging from one to six times current annual base salary, depending upon the position. The Chief Executive Officer, the other named executive officers, and other senior executives are required to accumulate VF Common Stock having market values as follows:

Stock Ownership Guidelines

OFFICER |  | VF COMMON STOCK HAVING A MARKET VALUE OF
President and Chief Executive Officer |  | Six times annual base salary
Chief Financial Officer and Other NEOs |  | Three times annual base salary
Other Senior Executives |  | Two times annual base salary

An executive has five years to reach the target. If an executive’s guideline ownership level increases because of a tier change or salary increase, a new five-year period to achieve the incremental guideline ownership level begins with each such change. Once achieved, the ownership of the guideline amount should be maintained for as long as the executive is subject to the guideline.

Credit will be given for direct holdings by the executive or an immediate family member residing in the same household and the 401(k) plan. No credit will be given for restricted stock, restricted stock units, or shares of stock beneficially owned by someone other than the executive or immediate family member residing in the same household, unexercised stock options, or other similar forms of ownership of stock. Shares held in trust are reviewed for credit by the Committee. Until a senior executive has met the targeted ownership level, whenever he or she exercises a stock option

he or she must retain shares equal to 50% of the after-tax value of each option exercised; 50% of the after-tax vested time-vested restricted stock units; and 50% of the after-tax vested performance-based restricted stock units. As of April 3, 2021, all of the named executive officers have met the guideline, except for Mr. Murray who is in a five-year period to achieve the guideline ownership level.

COMPENSATION COMMITTEE REPORT

The Compensation Committee has reviewed and discussed the Compensation Discussion and Analysis with management and the Committee’s independent compensation consultant. Based on the foregoing review and discussions, the Compensation Committee recommended to the Board of Directors that the Compensation Discussion and Analysis be included in this proxy statement and VF’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended April 3, 2021.

1 | As part of VF’s proactive Enterprise Protection Strategy, VF temporarily reduced salaries for a four-month period from April through the beginning of August 2020. Mr. Rendle’s salary was reduced by 50% and the other NEOs’ base salaries were reduced by 25%. The cash compensation for Mr. Bailey is paid in U.S. dollars, other than certain perquisites which were paid in Hong Kong dollars in fiscal 2019, fiscal 2020 and fiscal 2021. The perquisites compensation was converted into U.S. dollars at the average daily exchange rate for each respective period, as follows: in fiscal 2019, 0.1275 U.S. dollars to the Hong Kong dollar, in fiscal 2020, 0.1279 U.S. dollars to the Hong Kong dollar and in fiscal 2021, 0.12899 U.S. dollars to the Hong Kong dollar. The cash compensation for Mr. Scabbia Guerrini is paid in Swiss francs. His cash compensation was converted into U.S. dollars at the average daily exchange rate for each respective period, as follows: in fiscal 2019, 1.0095 U.S. dollars to the Swiss franc, in fiscal 2020, 1.0132 U.S. dollars to the Swiss franc and in fiscal 2021, 1.0834 U.S. dollars to the Swiss franc. Mr. Murray worked in the U.K. and was paid in British pounds sterling for part of fiscal 2020. The cash compensation paid to him in fiscal 2020 in pounds sterling was converted to U.S. dollars at the average daily exchange rate for fiscal 2020 of 1.2723 U.S. dollars to British pounds sterling.

2 | The amounts shown for the restricted stock units in this column include the aggregate grant date fair value of the restricted stock unit awards computed in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 718. The valuation assumptions used are summarized in Note 18 to VF’s consolidated financial statements included in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended April 3, 2021. Awards of performance-based restricted stock units (“PSUs”) for the three-year performance periods of 2019 through 2021, 2020 through 2022, and 2021 through 2023 were made to the named executive officers in 2018, 2019 and 2020, respectively, under the Mid-Term Incentive Plan generally described in footnote 3 to the 2021 Grants of Plan-Based Awards Table on page 42. The grant date fair value of the PSUs granted in fiscal 2021 is the sum of two separate valuations, with one portion being the target payout based on the probable outcome of financial performance goals and the remaining portion being the fair value of the award based on relative total shareholder return. To calculate this, we (i) multiply the average of the high and the low price of VF Common Stock on the date of the award ($60.11) by 50% of the target number of PSUs to determine the portion of fair value based on the financial performance goal, and (ii) use a Monte Carlo simulated fair value to determine the portion of fair value based on relative total shareholder return ($81.60 per PSU at target) and multiply it by 50% of the target number of PSUs. Assuming achievement of the financial performance goals at the maximum level, including the Gross Margin Improvement modifier, the grant date fair value of the PSU awards granted in 2020 with respect to fiscal 2021 compensation would have been as follows: Mr. Rendle, $9,671,970; Mr. Roe, $2,600,014; Mr. Bailey, $2,184,031; Mr. Scabbia Guerrini, $2,184,031; and Mr. Murray, $2,184,031 (these amounts include the relative total shareholder return portion of grant date fair value, but that portion of fair value is not based on an assumed probable level of performance so does not change when fair value is shown assuming maximum performance). Dividend equivalents (without compounding) accrue on these PSUs subject to the same performance-based vesting requirements as apply to the PSUs.

For a discussion of the performance goals applicable to the PSU awards, as well as vesting, forfeiture and other terms, see the Compensation Discussion and Analysis on pages 20 – 39.

3 | Options to purchase shares of VF Common Stock are granted under the Stock Plan. The terms of options granted under the Stock Plan are described in footnote 1 to the Outstanding Equity Awards at Fiscal Year-End 2021 table on page 43. The values of the option awards in this column are the aggregate grant date fair value computed in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 718 and were estimated

| using a lattice option-pricing model, which incorporates a range of assumptions for inputs between the grant date of the option and date of expiration. The valuation assumptions used and the resulting weighted average value of stock options granted during fiscal 2021 is summarized in Note 18 to VF’s consolidated financial statements included in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended April 3, 2021.

4 | The amounts in this column represent cash awards earned under the VF MIC Plan. The general operation of the VF MIC Plan in fiscal 2021 is described in footnote 2 to the 2021 Grants of Plan-Based Awards table on page 42.

5 | The amounts reported in this column represent the aggregate positive change in the actuarial present value of the named executive officers’ accumulated benefits under all defined benefit and actuarial pension plans (including supplemental plans) in fiscal 2021, fiscal 2020, and fiscal 2019. For both Messrs. Rendle and Roe, the increase in value in fiscal 2021 is due to interest and changes in assumptions, primarily due to changes in discount rates. Mr. Bailey does not participate in the defined benefit plans. Fiscal 2021 amounts in this column for Mr. Scabbia Guerrini were valued in Swiss francs and converted to U.S. dollars at the average daily exchange rate for fiscal 2021 of 1.0834 U.S. dollars to the Swiss franc. The amount in this column for Mr. Murray’s benefits under VF’s U.K. Pension Plan was valued in British pounds sterling and converted to U.S. dollars at the average daily exchange rate for fiscal 2021 of 1.3056 U.S. dollars to British pounds sterling. See “Pension Benefits” on page 45 for a detailed discussion of VF’s pension benefits.

6 | This amount includes VF’s matching contribution under the VF Executive Deferred Savings Plan in fiscal 2021 as follows: Mr. Rendle, $190,830; Mr. Roe, $82,478; Mr. Bailey, $65,504; and Mr. Murray, $18,778. For Messrs. Rendle, Roe, and Bailey, the amount also includes VF’s payment of the cost of financial planning services, and for Messrs. Rendle and Roe, the amount also includes VF’s payment of the cost of an annual physical. This amount also includes VF’s matching contribution under the VF 401k Plan as follows: Mr. Rendle, $15,480; Mr. Roe, $16,010; Mr. Bailey, $16,209; and Mr. Murray, $16,581. For Messrs. Roe and Murray, this amount also includes VF’s payment of the cost of tax preparation services in the amount of $1,500 and $1,500, respectively, and a related tax gross-up payment in the amount of $1,187 and $36, respectively. For Mr. Bailey, this amount includes a cost of living allowance in the amount of $10,692, a housing allowance in the amount of $96,743, a transportation allowance of $3,745, a relocation expense reimbursement of $69,506, and estimated foreign (Hong Kong) tax payments of $348,711. Certain amounts in this column for Mr. Bailey were paid in Hong Kong dollars and converted to U.S. dollars at the average daily exchange rate for fiscal 2021 of 0.12899 U.S. dollars to the Hong Kong dollar. For Mr. Scabbia Guerrini, this amount includes a transportation allowance of $6,501 and a representation allowance of $26,002. Amounts in this column for Mr. Scabbia Guerrini were paid in Swiss francs and converted to U.S. dollars at the average daily exchange rate for fiscal 2021 of 1.0834 U.S. dollars to the Swiss franc. This amount includes personal use of company aircraft in fiscal 2021 by Mr. Rendle of $129,648 and Mr. Roe of $21,756. The cost of the personal use of aircraft was calculated based on the aggregate incremental cost to VF based on an hourly charge for VF’s aircraft that includes fuel, maintenance, salaries, ramp fees and landing fees. Family members of executives and their invited guests occasionally fly on VF aircraft as additional passengers on business flights. In those cases, there is no aggregate incremental cost to VF for the family member or guest, although taxable income is imputed to the individual.

7 | Mr. Roe retired as our Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer effective at the end of May 2021.

8 | Mr. Bailey was an expatriate on assignment in Hong Kong from February 2017 through July 2020 and received expatriate compensation and benefits that are available on the same basis to all U.S. employees on foreign assignments. VF’s tax equalization policy is designed to ensure that an international assignee’s income tax burden while on foreign assignment is approximately the same as the assignee’s home-based income tax, regardless of the assignment location. A final determination as to the exact amount of Mr. Bailey’s tax equalization payments for fiscal 2019 through fiscal 2021 will not be available until his calendar 2018 through calendar 2021 tax equalization settlements are finalized. As a result, VF may make tax equalization payments and adjustments at a later date.

9 | Mr. Murray was not a named executive officer for the fiscal year ended March 30, 2019.

1 | All equity awards are granted under the VF Stock Plan. Under the Stock Plan, the exercise price of stock options is the fair market value on the date of grant. “Fair market value” is defined under the Stock Plan as the average of the reported high and low sales price of VF Common Stock on the date of grant. The average of the high and the low sales price on May 19, 2020, the award date, was $55.74. The closing market price was $54.84. The Compensation Committee’s general policy under the Stock Plan is to fix the date of grant of the options and performance-based equity awards as the third business day after VF announces its earnings for the previously completed fiscal year or quarter depending upon whether the award is an annual award or a mid-year award. The Compensation Committee approved the target PSU award amounts in May 2020, but in consultation with its independent compensation consultant, the Committee delayed establishing the PSU goals until July 2020 to provide additional time to gain greater clarity of the potential impact of the COVID-19 pandemic.

2 | The amounts in these columns represent the threshold, target and maximum annual incentive awards under the MIC Plan, as described above in the Compensation Discussion and Analysis on pages 20 – 39. Depending upon the level of achievement of each of the specified performance goals, annual cash awards could range from 0% to 150% of the targeted incentive opportunity for each MIC Plan participant. Mr. Scabbia Guerrini’s target has been converted to U.S. dollars from Swiss francs based on the average daily exchange rates for fiscal 2021 of 1.0834 U.S. dollars to the Swiss franc.

3 | The amounts in these columns represent the threshold, target and maximum PSU awards under the Mid-Term Incentive Plan (“MTIP”). These PSUs were granted to the named executive officers for the three-year performance period of fiscal 2021 through fiscal 2023.

Depending on the level of achievement of certain performance goals during the three years of the performance period, payouts of awards could range up to a maximum of 200% of the target award, and potentially up to plus 25% or down to minus 25% (determined by straight-line interpolation) of the target award depending on VF’s Gross Margin Improvement rate over the performance period, for a total maximum payout of 225% of the target award. For a discussion of the performance goals applicable to the MTIP awards, as well as vesting, forfeiture and other terms, see the Compensation Discussion and Analysis on pages 20 – 39.

4 | The aggregate fair value of the PSUs was computed in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 718. See footnote 2 to the Summary Compensation Table. The assumptions used are summarized in Note 18 to VF’s consolidated financial statements included in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended April 3, 2021.

5 | The fair value on the date of grant of each option award was computed in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 718. The terms of options are described in footnote 1 to the Outstanding Equity Awards at Fiscal Year-End 2021 table. The assumptions used and the resulting weighted average fair value of stock options granted during fiscal 2021 are summarized in Note 18 to VF’s consolidated financial statements included in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended April 3, 2021.

1 | All of the options are non-qualified stock options awarded under the Stock Plan. Each option becomes vested and exercisable in thirds on the first, second and third anniversaries of the date of grant. Options generally become fully vested and exercisable upon the executive’s death or termination of the executive’s employment due to disability or in the event of certain terminations following a change in control of VF. All options have a ten-year term but, in the event of certain terminations of the optionee’s employment, the options generally expire on an accelerated basis, as follows: 36 months after retirement, death or termination due to disability; at the end of the period severance payments are made (if any) in the case of involuntary termination; and at the time of any voluntary termination.

Outstanding Equity Awards at Fiscal Year-End 2021

2 | For all restricted stock and restricted stock units awarded in 2018 and later, dividends are reinvested at the dividend payment date in additional shares that are subject to the same restrictions as the original award. For restricted stock units awarded prior to 2018, dividend equivalents accrue as cash amounts until vesting and payout, at which time such amounts are paid in additional shares of stock calculated by dividing the accrued dividend equivalents by the average of the high and low price of a share of VF Common Stock on the date the award is paid out. Dividend equivalents are not compounded.

3 | The market value of restricted awards reported in this column was computed by multiplying $79.49, the closing market price of VF’s Common Stock at April 1, 2021, the last trading day of VF’s fiscal 2021, by the number of shares or units of stock awarded. For restricted stock awards, the amount also includes the value of accrued dividends as of that date.

4 | The number of shares or units and values in these columns assumes an achievement level of 40% of the target amount, which was the actual level of achievement for the three-year performance period ended April 3, 2021. The final level of achievement for the awards in these columns may differ. The number of RSUs was calculated by multiplying 40% by the target number of RSUs awarded, and the dollar value was calculated by multiplying 40% of the target number of RSUs awarded (the number of shares in the chart is rounded to the nearest whole number; the dollar value is based on the actual number of shares including fractional shares) by $79.49, the closing market price of VF’s Common Stock at April 1, 2021, the last trading day of VF’s fiscal 2021. For a discussion of vesting, forfeiture and other terms applicable to the RSUs, see the Compensation Discussion & Analysis on pages 20 – 39.

5 | This number represents the number of RSUs that were awarded under the MTIP by the Compensation Committee in 2019 for the three-year performance period ending April 2022 multiplied by an assumed achievement level of 40% (rounded to the nearest whole number of shares). At an achievement level of 225% (the maximum), the number of RSUs and the corresponding value would be as follows (the number of shares is rounded to the nearest whole number; the dollar value is based on the actual number of shares including fractional shares): Mr. Rendle: 117,536 RSUs with a value of $4,152,399; Mr. Roe: 30,722 RSUs with a value of $1,085,356; Mr. Bailey: 25,378 RSUs with a value of $896,568; Mr. Scabbia Guerrini: 25,378 RSUs with a value of $896,568; and Mr. Murray: 25,378 RSUs with a value of $896,568.

6 | This number represents the number of RSUs that were awarded under the MTIP by the Compensation Committee in 2020 for the three-year performance period ending April 2023 multiplied by an assumed achievement level of 40% (rounded to the nearest whole number of shares). At an achievement level of 225% (the maximum), the number of RSUs and the corresponding value would be as follows (the number of shares is rounded to the nearest whole number; the dollar value is based on the actual number of shares including fractional shares): Mr. Rendle: 187,704 RSUs with a value of $6,631,374; Mr. Roe: 50,459 RSUs with a value of $1,782,643; Mr. Bailey: 42,386 RSUs with a value of $1,497,433; Mr. Scabbia Guerrini: 42,386 RSUs with a value of $1,497,433; and Mr. Murray: 42,386 RSUs with a value of $1,497,433.

7 | The number represents the number of unvested time vesting RSUs that were awarded under the Stock Plan by the Compensation Committee in 2018, including accrued but unpaid dividends. These time-vesting RSUs will vest in February 2022.

8 | Mr. Murray received an award of 7,537 restricted stock units in October 2018. These restricted stock units vest in October 2021, provided that Mr. Murray remains an employee of VF (except a pro rata portion of the awards would vest in the event of involuntary termination not for cause and the awards would vest upon termination due to death or disability or certain terminations following a change in control of VF). Dividends on these shares of restricted stock units are reinvested, at the dividend payment date, in additional shares that are subject to the same restrictions as the original award.

| RSUs were paid out following the determination by the Compensation Committee on May 17, 2021 of the level of achievement for the performance period. The aggregate dollar amount realized by the named executive officers upon the payout of the award was computed by multiplying the number of RSUs by $85.93, the fair market value of the underlying shares on May 17, 2021, the payout date (the number of shares in the chart is rounded to the nearest whole number; the dollar value is based on the actual number of shares including fractional shares). The fair market value is defined under the Stock Plan to be the average of the high and low price of VF Common Stock on the applicable date. For Mr. Rendle, the amounts in these columns also include $3,213,485, the fair market value of 35,136 shares of restricted stock, plus 4,793 shares of restricted stock resulting from accumulated dividends on the restricted stock, at the time of vesting in February 2021. For Mr. Roe, the amounts in these columns also include $3,590,102, the fair market value of 40,274 shares of restricted stock, plus 4,340 shares of restricted stock resulting from accumulated dividends on the restricted stock, at the time of vesting in February 2021. For Mr. Bailey, the amounts in these columns also include $1,415,566, the fair market value of 16,151 shares of restricted stock units, plus 1,440 shares of restricted stock units resulting from accumulated dividend equivalents on the restricted stock units, at the time of vesting in February 2021. For Mr. Scabbia Guerrini, the amounts in these columns also include $652,755, the fair market value of 9,691 shares of restricted stock units, plus 1,113 shares of restricted stock units resulting from accumulated dividend equivalents on the restricted stock units, at the time of vesting in July 2020. For Mr. Murray, the amounts in these columns represent the fair market value of 5,577 shares of restricted stock units, plus 273 shares of restricted stock units resulting from accumulated dividend equivalents on the restricted stock units, at the time of vesting on March 31, 2020. No amounts reported in these columns were deferred.

PENSION BENEFITS

VF sponsors and maintains the VF Corporation Pension Plan (the “Pension Plan”), a tax-qualified defined benefit plan that covers most of VF’s U.S.-based employees who were employed by VF on or before December 31, 2004, including Messrs. Rendle and Roe. Mr. Scabbia Guerrini has pension benefits under the VF International SAGL pension fund in Switzerland (the “Swiss Pension Plan”) that covers virtually all Swiss-based employees of VF International SAGL over 25 years of age. Mr. Murray has pension benefits under the VF Pension Scheme in the United Kingdom (the “U.K. Pension Plan”). Benefits under the Pension Plan are calculated by reference to the employee’s “average annual compensation”, which is his or her average annual salary and annual incentive compensation from January 1, 2014, with no less than five years immediately preceding retirement included in the average. Effective December 31, 2018, the Pension Plan ceased to recognize any future service performance and any eligible compensation paid for purposes of calculating participant accrued benefits under the Pension Plan (i.e., no additional benefits accrue after such date). As of December 31, 2018, Messrs. Rendle and Roe were the only NEOs who participated in the Pension Plan.

There are two formulas for computing benefits under the Pension Plan. The “normal retirement” formula is used for employees who qualify for “early retirement” under the Pension Plan upon termination, by being credited with at least ten years of service with VF and having attained age 55. The named executive officers who participate in the Pension Plan are eligible for nonforfeitable benefits under the Pension Plan and the VF Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan (“SERP”).

The SERP is an unfunded, nonqualified plan for eligible employees primarily designed to restore benefits lost under the Pension Plan due to the maximum legal limit of pension benefits imposed under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 (“ERISA”) and the Internal Revenue Code (the “Code”). The combined retirement income from the Pension Plan and the SERP for each of the eligible named executive officers, upon retirement at age 65, would be an amount equal to his or her Pension Plan benefit calculated (i) without regard to any limitation imposed by the Code or ERISA, (ii) without regard to his participation in the Deferred Compensation Plan or the Executive Deferred Savings Plan, (iii) on the basis of the average of the highest three years of his salary and annual incentive compensation during the ten-year period immediately preceding retirement, and (iv) without deduction or offset of Social Security benefits. For purposes of the table below, the “normal retirement” formula has been used for determining the SERP benefits of all of the named executive officers who participate in the Pension Plan, regardless of whether they otherwise qualify for “early retirement” under the Pension Plan. Payments under the SERP with respect to the period prior to December 31, 2004 are payable in monthly payments or in a lump sum, and payments with respect to the period after December 31, 2004 are payable in a lump sum.

At the end of December 2014 the Pension Plan and SERP were modified such that for certain executives, including the named executive officers, benefits would be frozen in the Pension Plan and would instead accrue in the SERP, and therefore accrued benefits under the SERP increased at a higher rate for service and earnings after December 31, 2014 and before January 1, 2019. Effective December 31, 2018, the SERP ceased to recognize any future service and any eligible compensation paid for purposes of calculating participant accrued benefits under the SERP (i.e., no additional benefits accrue after such date). As of December 31, 2018, Messrs. Rendle and Roe were the only NEOs who participated in the SERP, and none of our other NEOs have ever participated in the SERP.

The assumptions underlying the present values of the eligible U.S.-based named executive officers’ pension benefits are the assumptions used for financial statement reporting purposes and are set forth in Note 16 to VF’s Consolidated Financial Statements in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended April 3, 2021, except that retirement age is assumed to be age 65, the normal retirement age specified in the Pension Plan.

1 | As discussed above, the Pension Plan and SERP were frozen effective December 31, 2018, and no additional service credit will accrue after that date. All years of service reflected in this column for Messrs. Rendle and Roe include service until December 31, 2018. Mr. Murray ceased pensionable service in the U.K. Pension Plan in 2019. The number of years of service credited to Mr. Scabbia Guerrini under the Swiss Pension Plan was computed as of the same measurement date used for financial statement reporting purposes with respect to VF’s audited financial statements for the fiscal year completed April 3, 2021.

2 | The amounts in this column for Messrs. Rendle and Roe are the actuarial present value of the named executive officer’s accumulated benefit under each plan, computed as of the same Plan measurement date used for financial statement reporting purposes with respect to VF’s audited financial statements for the fiscal year completed April 3, 2021.

3 | Messrs. Rendle and Roe were eligible for early retirement on April 3, 2021. The early retirement benefit for an eligible executive is equivalent to the accumulated benefit amount payable at age 65 reduced for early commencement at the rate of five percent (5%) per year for each year prior to such executive’s attainment of age 65. At April 3, 2021, Mr. Rendle was age 61 and Mr. Roe was age 56.

4 | Mr. Bailey does not participate in these plans.

5 | The amount for Mr. Scabbia Guerrini under the Swiss Pension Plan was calculated in Swiss francs and converted to U.S. dollars using an exchange rate of 1.0834 U.S. dollars to the Swiss franc, the average daily exchange rate for fiscal 2021. The amount is the actual account value of the portion contributed by VF into the Swiss Pension Plan. Under the Swiss Pension Plan, employee and employer together contribute a percentage of the employee’s base salary up to the maximum pensionable salary depending on the employee’s age. The portion of the contribution made by employer and employee depends on the category of the employee. In addition, Mr. Scabbia Guerrini periodically makes voluntary discretionary contributions to the plan. The annual post-retirement benefit under the Swiss Pension Plan is calculated as a percentage of the accumulated capital in the Swiss Pension Plan for the employee at the time the employee retires. In the event the employee retires earlier than the regular retirement age (which is currently 65 years of age for men), the percentage is reduced. Subject to certain conditions, participants may elect to receive pension benefits entirely or partially in a lump sum; any funds taken as a lump sum reduce the remaining capital and, as a result, the amount of the annual payments. Because of the way benefits are calculated under the Swiss Pension Plan it is not possible to express the pension benefits as a percentage of the last or an average salary.

6 | The amount for Mr. Murray under the U.K. Pension Plan, which is a defined contribution plan, was calculated in British pounds sterling and converted to U.S. dollars at the average daily exchange rate for fiscal 2021 of 1.3056 U.S. dollars to the British pound sterling, and reflects the present value of Mr. Murray’s accumulated benefit as of April 21, 2021. Under the U.K. Pension Plan, the employee and employer together contribute a percentage of the employee’s base salary. The employer’s contributions are up to 8% of base salary and there is no maximum for employee contributions. The employee can start taking his or her retirement benefit at any time from age 55. There are multiple options of retirement benefit and the benefit is determined at the selected retirement age. Because of the way benefits are calculated under the U.K. Pension Plan it is not possible to express the pension benefits as a

| percentage of the last or an average salary. In fiscal 2021, VF did not contribute any amounts into the U.K. Pension Plan for Mr. Murray’s benefit due to Mr. Murray’s relocation to the U.S. in 2019. As a result, the only increases applied to his pension benefit have been annual statutory increases.

NONQUALIFIED DEFERRED COMPENSATION

VF senior executives, including the named executive officers other than Mr. Scabbia Guerrini, who is not based in the U.S., are permitted to defer compensation under the VF Corporation Executive Deferred Savings Plan II (the “EDSP”).

In 2015, the terms of the EDSP were amended to permit an eligible executive to defer into a hypothetical “account,” on a pre-tax basis, annual compensation in excess of the IRS annual compensation limit for 401k contributions ($285,000 for calendar year 2020 and $290,000 for calendar year 2021) (but not more than 50% of the executive’s annual salary and 75% of the executive’s annual cash incentive payment). A participating executive’s account was also credited with matching credits equal to 100% on the first 6% of annual compensation deferred by the executive for the year. Compensation below the IRS annual compensation limit was eligible for contributions to the 401k Plan.

The terms of the EDSP were amended effective January 1, 2020 to permit an eligible executive to defer into a hypothetical “account,” on a pre-tax basis, annual compensation from their first dollar earned (but not more than 50% of the executive’s annual salary and 75% of the executive’s annual cash incentive payment). A participating executive’s account will be credited with matching credits after the end of the plan year in an amount equal to 100% on the first 6% of deferrals for such plan year less the maximum matching contribution that could be made in the 401k Plan. Participants must be employed on the last day of the plan year to receive matching contributions for that plan year. Executives were not permitted to defer their annual cash incentive bonuses payable in 2021 due to the timing of the establishment of the performance metrics and the application of applicable tax laws.

The 401k Plan is a broad-based tax-qualified defined contribution plan for most U.S. employees of VF. A participant is credited with matching contributions equal to 100% on the first 6% of the annual compensation contributed by the participant to the 401k Plan, up to the IRS annual compensation limit of $285,000 for calendar year 2020 and $290,000 for calendar year 2021.

EDSP accounts deferred after January 1, 2005 are generally payable in either a lump sum or in up to ten annual installments following termination of employment, as elected by the executive at the time of deferral. With respect to accounts deferred prior to January 1, 2005, an executive may request, subject to VF approval, distribution in a lump sum or in up to ten annual installments following termination of employment. Prior to termination of employment, an executive may receive a distribution of the executive’s EDSP account upon an unexpected financial hardship. Accounts deferred after January 1, 2020 also have in-service distribution options. Executives may elect to receive deferrals (together with all gains and losses attributable thereto) on a scheduled date while still employed by the VF. If an executive elects to receive payment of deferrals while still employed by VF, payment cannot begin until at least five years from the plan year in which such deferrals were contributed. An executive may postpone a scheduled in-service distribution date as long as they (i) make the election to postpone at least twelve (12) months before the originally scheduled distribution date and (ii) the new distribution date is at least five (5) years after their originally scheduled distribution date.

Accounts under the EDSP are credited with earnings and losses based on certain hypothetical investments selected by the executive. The hypothetical investment alternatives available to executives include various mutual funds. Executives may change such hypothetical investment elections on a daily basis.

2 | Amounts reported in this column are included as All Other Compensation in the Summary Compensation Table on page 40. For the 2020 calendar year, the matching contribution for qualified executives was made after the end of the 2020 calendar year, in March 2021, in an amount equal to 100% on the first 6% of deferrals for such year less the maximum matching contribution that could be made in the 401k Plan, provided the executive is employed on the last day of the 2020 calendar year. For the 2021 calendar year, the matching contribution for qualified executives will be made after the end of the 2021 calendar year in an amount equal to 100% on the first 6% of deferrals for such year less the maximum matching contribution that could be made in the 401k Plan, provided the executive is employed on the last day of the 2021 calendar year.

3 | This column includes earnings and (losses) on deferred compensation balances. Such amounts are not “above-market” or “preferential” and therefore are not reported as compensation in the Summary Compensation Table on page 40.

4 | This column reflects the aggregate of salary and non-equity incentive awards deferred by each named executive officer during his career with VF plus the aggregate amount of contributions by VF and the investment earnings thereon. Amounts deferred each year by the named executive officers have been reported in the Summary Compensation Tables in VF’s proxy statements in the year earned to the extent the executive was a named executive officer for purposes of proxy statement disclosure.

Potential Payments Upon Change in Control, Retirement or Termination of Employment

The following section describes payments that would be made to each of the named executive officers and related benefits as a result of (i) a termination of service in the event of a change in control of VF, (ii) the executive’s retirement, (iii) the executive’s termination by VF without “cause”, (iv) the executive’s termination by VF with “cause”, or (v) the executive’s resignation, assuming these events occurred on April 3, 2021.

The descriptions below do not include the following amounts that the executives also would have received in all termination scenarios:

| (a) | retirement benefits, the present value of which is disclosed in the 2021 Pension Benefits Table on page 46,

| (b) | the aggregate balance disclosed in the 2021 Nonqualified Deferred Compensation table above,

| (c) | the executive’s MIC Plan payment for the year ended April 3, 2021, as disclosed in the Non-Equity Incentive Plan Compensation column of the Summary Compensation Table on page 40, or

| (d) | the value of the executive’s vested “in-the-money” unexercised stock options; the executive would be able to realize such value by exercise of the options prior to any termination, or the executive could retain the options after termination in all termination scenarios except termination by VF without “cause” with no severance, resignation not qualifying as a retirement or termination by VF with “cause”.

The named executive officers, other than Mr. Scabbia Guerrini, do not have employment contracts with VF; all of their potential payments outlined below are defined in benefit plan documents described in this proxy statement. Under Mr. Scabbia Guerrini’s 2006 employment agreement and Swiss law, he would receive six months of base salary and a pro rata amount of his annual incentive bonus which would have been earned for the year of termination in the event of his termination without cause. As described below under “Payments Upon Retirement,” as a result of retirement executives do not receive enhanced benefits other than under the terms of certain equity awards, pursuant to which an executive who is eligible for retirement would not forfeit his awards due to retirement.

POTENTIAL PAYMENTS UPON A CHANGE IN CONTROL OF VF

VF has entered into Change-in-Control Agreements with the named executive officers. These Agreements provide severance benefits to the executives only if their employment is terminated by VF without cause or for good reason by the executive within the 24-month period after a change in control of VF. “Good reason” for this purpose means a material reduction in the executive’s authority or duties, budget or compensation; a requirement that the executive relocate anywhere not mutually acceptable to the executive and VF; or a breach by VF of the Agreement. The Agreements have a term of two years with automatic annual extensions. The Agreements may be terminated by VF, unless VF has knowledge that a third party intends to effect a change in control of VF and, if a change in control has occurred, the agreements may not be terminated until two years after the change in control.

Generally, severance benefits payable to the named executive officers include a lump-sum payment of an amount equal to 2.99 times the sum of (a) the greater of the executive’s highest annual base salary in effect at any time within the twelve-month period preceding a change in control of VF or the date of termination plus (b) the greater of (1) the highest

48 VF CORPORATION | 2021 ANNUAL MEETING OF SHAREHOLDERS

##### Table of Contents

EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION
Potential Payments Upon Change in Control, Retirement or Termination of Employment

amount of annual incentive awarded to the executive during the last three fiscal years prior to the date on which the executive’s employment is terminated following a change in control of VF and (2) the target annual incentive for the year of termination. Under the terms of the Agreements or the Stock Plan, upon a qualifying termination, the executives would also be entitled to supplemental benefits, such as payment of a pro rata portion of non-equity incentive compensation, accelerated vesting of stock options, accelerated lapse of restrictions on restricted stock units and restricted stock, lump-sum payments under the VF SERP for U.S.-based executives, continued life and medical insurance for specified periods after termination, entitlements under retirement plans and a lump-sum payment upon attaining retirement age. In the case of RSUs under the MTIP, the RSUs would be deemed earned based on the actual performance achieved through the date of termination projected for the entire performance cycle (except if performance in completed years is below-target the uncompleted years are projected at target), and such RSUs would vest in full (without proration).

Except as described below, the total payments to be made to an executive in the event of termination of employment upon a change in control of VF potentially could exceed the level of “parachute payments” (as that term is defined in the Code) that would trigger the “golden parachute excise tax,” which could result in imposition of excise taxes on the executive and loss of tax deductibility for VF. In the case of Messrs. Rendle, Roe, Bailey and Murray, if the excise tax would apply, each would receive the full payments (without gross-up) or the payments would be reduced to an amount just below the level triggering excise tax, whichever alternative results in the greater after-tax value to the recipient.

A “change in control” under the Agreements would include any of the following events, subject to certain exceptions described in the Agreements:

| (A) | an outside party acquires 20% of VF’s voting securities;

| (B) | members of the VF Board of Directors on the date of the Agreement, together with new members approved to join the Board by 75% of the “Incumbent Board” as defined in the Agreements, no longer constitute a majority of the Board; or

| (C) | consummation of a plan or agreement providing for a merger or consolidation of VF if VF’s shareholders before the transaction no longer hold 65% or more of the voting power after the transaction.

POTENTIAL PAYMENTS UPON TERMINATION OF EMPLOYMENT FOLLOWING A CHANGE IN CONTROL AND RELATED BENEFITS(1,2)

If the named executives’ employment had been terminated by VF without cause or by the executives for good reason (as defined above) following a change in control of VF, assuming the triggering event occurred on April 3, 2021, the executives would be entitled to receive the following estimated amounts.

1 | These disclosed amounts are estimates only and do not necessarily reflect the actual amounts that would be paid to the named executive officers, which would only be known at the time that they become eligible for payment and would only be payable if a change in control were to occur and the executive’s employment were terminated by VF without cause or by the executive with good reason. The table reflects the amount that could be payable under the various arrangements assuming that the change in control had occurred at April 3, 2021, and the executive’s employment had been terminated on that date.

2 | Valuations of equity awards in this table reflect a price per share of VF Common Stock of $79.49, the closing market price of VF’s Common Stock at April 1, 2021, the last trading day of VF’s fiscal 2021. Totals may not add up due to rounding.

3 | The amounts in this column represent 2.99 multiplied by the sum of the executive’s current base salary plus the highest actual annual incentive paid to the executive in the past three years.

4 | The amount in this column represents the estimated value of RSU awards under the MTIP for incomplete cycles that would be paid upon a qualifying termination following a change in control. Incomplete cycles as of April 3, 2021, are the fiscal 2020-2022 and fiscal 2021-2023 RSU award cycles, both estimated at 100% of target performance. For Mr. Murray, the amount in this column also includes $638,644, the value of accelerated vesting of Mr. Murray’s 8,034 shares of restricted stock units described in footnote 8 to the Outstanding Equity Awards at Fiscal Year-End 2021 table on page 43 which would be subject to accelerated vesting.

6 | The amount in this column represents the estimated present value of the continuation of health and welfare coverage over the 36-month severance period.

7 | The amount in this column represents the value of enhanced and accelerated SERP benefits for Messrs. Rendle and Roe, who are the only executives eligible to participate in the SERP.

8 | Cash compensation for Mr. Scabbia Guerrini was paid in Swiss francs and converted to U.S. dollars using the exchange rate of 1.0834 U.S. dollars to the Swiss franc, the average daily exchange rate for fiscal 2021.

PAYMENTS UPON RETIREMENT

Messrs. Rendle, Roe, Bailey, Scabbia Guerrini and Murray were eligible for retirement on April 3, 2021. Retirement generally would not result in any enhanced benefits, but under the terms of certain equity awards an executive who is eligible for retirement would not forfeit his awards due to retirement. In the case of stock options, those options are in substance vested, with such options becoming exercisable at the specified vesting dates (including in the case in which those vesting dates occur after retirement). At April 3, 2021, the aggregate in-the-money value of the unexercisable options of Messrs. Rendle, Roe, Bailey, Scabbia Guerrini and Murray which would not be forfeited upon a retirement was $6,993,639, $1,880,026, $1,579,209, $1,579,209, and $1,579,209, respectively. In the case of time-based RSUs, unvested RSUs vest upon retirement. At April 3, 2021, the estimated value of the unvested RSUs, assuming Messrs. Rendle, Roe, Bailey and Scabbia Guerrini had retired on that date, was $585,137, $178,287, $77,548 and $77,548, respectively, assuming a price per share of $79.49, the closing market price of VF’s Common Stock at April 1, 2021, the last trading day of VF’s fiscal 2021. In addition, under the MTIP, upon retirement at April 3, 2021 for all named executive officers, the RSUs earnable for then incomplete cycles (fiscal 2020-2022 and fiscal 2021-2023) would not be forfeited, but they would remain fully subject to the performance requirements, so that the RSUs would be earned only upon completion of the performance periods and only to the extent performance goals were actually achieved over the performance period. Therefore, the value of such RSUs cannot be calculated as of April 3, 2021.

PAYMENTS UPON TERMINATION DUE TO DEATH OR DISABILITY(1)

The following table shows the estimated value of all unexercisable options, unvested RSU awards and unvested restricted stock or restricted stock unit awards on April 3, 2021, assuming the executives had terminated employment due to death or disability:

1 | Valuations reflect a price per share of $79.49, the closing market price of VF’s Common Stock at April 1, 2021, the last trading day of VF’s fiscal 2021. Totals may not add up due to rounding.

2 | These individuals were retirement eligible on April 3, 2021. Unearned MTIP awards are paid in full, reflect awards earned for actual performance through April 3, 2021 and assume target performance for 2022-2023.

PAYMENTS UPON TERMINATION WITHOUT CAUSE

In the event of a termination by VF without “cause”, (i) under the Stock Plan, the executive’s stock options would continue to vest and be exercisable until the end of the period of the executive’s receipt of installments of severance pay, if any, from VF, and (ii) under the Mid-Term Incentive Plan, if the executive has been an active participant for at least 12 months in a performance cycle, the executive would be eligible to receive a pro rata portion of the total number of RSUs the executive is deemed to have earned based on performance in the completed portion of the performance cycle, with the pro rata portion determined as of the earlier of (a) the date of the last severance payment, if any, and (b) the last day of the performance period. In addition, a pro rata portion of the time-based restricted stock units granted to Mr. Murray

would vest in the event of a termination by VF without “cause”. Except as noted above with respect to Mr. Scabbia Guerrini, the determination of whether severance will be paid and the period over which it would be paid is in the discretion of VF’s Compensation Committee.

PAYMENTS UPON TERMINATION FOR CAUSE OR RESIGNATION

In the event of a termination for “cause” or resignation not qualifying as retirement, each named executive officer would receive no additional compensation.

VF Corporation is a global leader in branded lifestyle apparel, footwear and accessories, engaging in the design, production, procurement, marketing, and distribution of branded products in the Americas, Europe, and the Asia Pacific.

We had previously identified a “median employee” for disclosure in the fiscal 2020 proxy statement using the methodology set out below. For purposes of determining our CEO pay ratio for fiscal 2021, our last completed fiscal year, SEC rules allow us to use of the same median employee (or comparable employee) for three years as long as there has been no change in our employee population or employee compensation programs that we reasonably believe would result in a significant change to our CEO pay ratio disclosure.

During the last completed fiscal year, we determined there has been no change in our employee population or employee compensation programs that would significantly impact our CEO pay ratio disclosure. However, as the median employee identified in our fiscal 2020 proxy statement has since terminated employment, we have identified another employee with substantially similar fiscal 2020 compensation as the original median employee.

Our CEO pay ratio for fiscal 2021, which was our last completed fiscal year, is a reasonable estimate calculated in compliance with the requirements of Section 953(b) of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act, and Item 402(u) of Regulation S-K. Our median employee is a part-time, U.S.-based retail associate whose annual total compensation for fiscal 2021 was $13,513, calculated in accordance with the requirements of the Summary Compensation Table. Our CEO received $15,782,405 in compensation during the same period. Therefore, our CEO to Median Employee Pay Ratio is 1,168:1.

In order to identify our “median employee” in fiscal 2020, we took the following steps:

Step 1: We identified our active employee population as of February 1, 2020. The active VF workforce on February 1, 2020, including VF’s consolidated subsidiaries, had 49,186 full-time, part-time, temporary, and seasonal employees in 52 countries throughout the world. Of that population, 21,862 were U.S. employees and 27,323 were non-U.S. employees. No employees were excluded under the de minimis exemption.

Step 2: We identified a consistently applied compensation measure which would provide a reasonable picture of the annual compensation of our employees. For our consistently applied compensation measure, we used total cash compensation received – a combination of salary/overtime (paid on an hourly, weekly, biweekly or monthly basis) plus a variety of other cash-based incentive pay (including bonuses and other types of production based pay typical for their respective positions) received by the employees in our identified population.

| • |  | Given our multiple payroll systems and diverse global workforce, we measured compensation for our employees using the 12-month period ended January 31, 2020. In making this determination, we annualized the compensation of all employees included in the calculation who were hired during the period, but who did not work for the company during the entire 12-months.

| • |  | The VF workforce was paid in 39 currencies throughout the world on 24 different payroll systems. For purposes of the fiscal 2020 disclosure, we applied the end of year local currency to U.S. dollars exchange rate for fiscal year 2020 to the compensation paid. We did not make any cost-of-living adjustments.

Step 3: We identified the “median employee” from our employee population by ranking our employees, excluding the CEO, high to low based on their total cash compensation earned over the measurement period.

EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION

2021 Equity Compensation Plan Information Table

The following table provides information as of April 3, 2021, regarding the number of shares of VF Common Stock that may be issued under VF’s equity compensation plans.

|  | (a) |  | (b) |  | (c)
PLAN CATEGORY |  | NUMBER OF SECURITIES TO BE ISSUED UPON EXERCISE OF OUTSTANDING OPTIONS, WARRANTS AND RIGHTS (1) |  | WEIGHTED AVERAGE EXERCISE PRICE OF OUTSTANDING OPTIONS, WARRANTS AND RIGHTS (1) |  | NUMBER OF SECURITIES REMAINING AVAILABLE FOR FUTURE ISSUANCE UNDER EQUITY COMPENSATION PLANS (EXCLUDING SECURITIES REFLECTED IN COLUMN (a)) (2)
Equity compensation plans approved by shareholders |  |  |  | 10,764,691 |  |  |  | $ | 62.56 |  |  |  |  | 21,968,357 |
Equity compensation plans not approved by shareholders |  |  |  | -0- |  |  |  |  | -0- |  |  |  |  | -0- |
Total |  |  |  | 10,764,691 |  |  |  | $ | 62.56 |  |  |  |  | 21,968,357 |

1 | The number of shares includes 2,183,555 restricted stock units that were outstanding on April 3, 2021, under VF’s Mid-term Incentive Plan, a subplan under the 1996 Stock Compensation Plan. Under this Plan, participants are awarded performance-contingent Common Stock units, which give them the opportunity to earn shares of VF Common Stock. The number of restricted stock units included in the table assumes a maximum payout of shares (i.e., at 225% of target award). Actual payout of these shares is determined as described in footnote 3 to the 2021 Grants of Plan-Based Awards table on page 42. Restricted stock unit awards do not have an exercise price because their value is dependent upon the achievement of the specified performance criteria and may be settled only for shares of VF Common Stock on a one-for-one basis. Accordingly, the restricted stock units have been disregarded for purposes of computing the weighted-average exercise price. The number of shares also includes 768,419 restricted stock units that vest over time and do not have an exercise price, granted apart from the MTIP. Had all restricted stock units been included in the calculation, the weighted-average exercise price reflected in column (b) would have been $45.40. Shares of restricted stock do not constitute “options, warrants or rights” and therefore are excluded from these columns. At April 3, 2021, a total of 920,472 unvested shares of restricted stock were outstanding.

2 | Full-value awards, such as restricted stock and restricted stock units, as well as stock options, may be awarded under VF’s 1996 Stock Compensation Plan; all shares reflected in this column are shares available under the 1996 Stock Compensation Plan. Any shares that are delivered in connection with stock options are counted against the remaining securities available for issuance as one share for each share actually delivered. Any shares that are delivered in connection with full-value awards are counted against the remaining securities available as three shares for each full-value share actually delivered.

ITEM NO. 2

Proposal to Approve Compensation of Named Executive Officers as Disclosed in This Proxy Statement

At the meeting, VF shareholders will be asked for an advisory shareholder vote to approve the compensation of VF’s named executive officers, as such compensation is disclosed in this proxy statement pursuant to the disclosure rules of the SEC.

As required by Section 14A of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, shareholders are being asked to vote on the following resolution:

“Resolved, that the shareholders approve the compensation of VF’s executive officers named in the Summary Compensation Table, as disclosed in VF’s Proxy Statement dated June 11, 2021, including the Compensation Discussion and Analysis, the compensation tables and other narrative executive compensation disclosures.”

Please refer to the section titled “Executive Compensation” of this proxy statement for a detailed discussion of VF’s executive compensation principles and practices and the fiscal 2021 compensation of our named executive officers.

VF’s Executive Compensation Program has consistently met its objectives in recent years, enabling VF to attract and retain capable executives, provide incentives for achieving and exceeding VF’s financial goals and aligning the financial objectives of VF’s executives with those of shareholders.

Despite the headwind created by the COVID-19 global pandemic, our business delivered solid results. However, revenue and profit measures were negatively impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic. The following are highlights for continuing operations:

| • |  | Full year fiscal 2021 revenue decreased 12% to $9.2 billion.

| • |  | Full year fiscal 2021 Direct-to-Consumer revenue was down 5%; e-commerce revenue increased 67%.

| • |  | Full year fiscal 2021 International revenue decreased 7%; Greater China revenue increased 24%.

| • |  | Full year fiscal 2021 gross margin decreased 260 basis points to 52.7%.

| • |  | Full year fiscal 2021 diluted earnings per share decreased 42% to $0.91.

| • |  | Full year fiscal 2021 operating cash flow was $1.2 billion.

As discussed above in the Compensation Discussion and Analysis, compensation in fiscal 2021 for each named executive officer was consistent with our pay-for-performance philosophy.

Although, as an advisory vote, this proposal is not binding upon VF or the Board, the Compensation Committee, which is composed solely of independent directors and is responsible for making decisions regarding the amount and form of compensation paid to VF’s executive officers, will carefully consider the shareholder vote on this matter, along with other expressions of shareholder views it receives on specific policies and desirable actions. If there are a significant number of unfavorable votes, we will seek to understand the concerns that influenced the vote and address them in making future decisions affecting the executive compensation program.

The VF Board of Directors unanimously recommends that you vote “FOR” the approval of the compensation of named executive officers as disclosed in this proxy statement.

ITEM NO. 3

Ratification of The Selection of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

Selection of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm. The Audit Committee has retained PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP as VF’s independent registered public accounting firm for fiscal 2022. PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP served as VF’s independent registered public accounting firm for fiscal 2021. In connection with its decision to retain PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP as VF’s independent registered public accounting firm, the Audit Committee considered whether the provision of non-audit services by PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP was compatible with maintaining PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP’s independence and concluded that it was. A representative of PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP will be present at the meeting. The representative will be given an opportunity to make a statement if he or she desires to do so and to respond to appropriate questions. Although we are not required to do so, we believe it is appropriate to ask shareholders to ratify the appointment of PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP as VF’s independent registered public accounting firm. If shareholders do not ratify the selection of PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP, the Audit Committee will reconsider the selection of an independent registered public accounting firm. Even if shareholders do ratify the selection, the Audit Committee retains its discretion to reconsider its appointment if it believes such a change would be in the best interest of VF and its shareholders.

The VF Board of Directors unanimously recommends that you vote “FOR” ratification of the selection of PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP.

Professional Fees of PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP. The following chart summarizes the estimated fees of PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP for services rendered to VF during the 2020 and 2021 fiscal years.

TYPE OF FEES |  | 2021 |  |  | 2020 |  |  | DESCRIPTION OF FEES
Audit Fees |  | $ | 8,621,000 |  |  | $ | 9,378,000 |  |  | “Audit Fees” are fees that VF paid to PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP for the audit of VF’s consolidated financial statements included in VF’s Annual Report on Form 10-K and review of financial statements included in the Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q, and for services that are normally provided by the auditor in connection with statutory and regulatory filings and engagements; and for the audit of the effectiveness of VF’s internal control over financial reporting.
Audit Related Fees |  |  | 361,000 |  |  |  | 531,000 |  |  | “Audit Related Fees” are fees billed for assurance and related services that are reasonably related to the performance of the audit or review of VF’s financial statements and are not reported above under the caption “Audit Fees”. “Audit Related Fees” in the 2021 and 2020 fiscal years consisted primarily of social security audits, sales certificates and other assurance services.
Tax Fees |  |  | 2,337,000 |  |  |  | 3,307,000 |  |  | “Tax Fees” are fees billed for professional services for tax compliance, tax advice, and tax planning. “Tax Fees” in the 2021 and 2020 fiscal years consisted primarily of tax advisory and tax compliance services, transfer pricing and VAT assistance.
All Other Fees |  |  | 1,000 |  |  |  | 76,000 |  |  | “All Other Fees” are fees billed for services other than services reported under “Audit Fees,” “Audit Related Fees” and “Tax Fees”. “All Other Fees” in the 2021 and 2020 fiscal years consisted of fees for subscription to an online research tool, and, solely in the 2020 fiscal year, additional fees for Legal & Ethics Compliance services.
Total |  | $ | 11,320,000 |  |  | $ | 13,292,000 |  |  |

VF’s process is that all audit related services and all other permissible non-audit services provided by PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP are to be pre-approved by the Audit Committee. The pre-approval policies adopted by the Audit Committee provide that annual, recurring services that will be provided by VF’s independent registered public accounting firm and related fees are presented to the Audit Committee for its consideration and advance approval. Criteria are established by the Audit Committee for its advance approval of specified categories of services and payment of fees to VF’s independent registered public accounting firm for changes in scope of recurring services or additional nonrecurring services during the current year. On a quarterly basis, the Audit Committee is informed of each previously approved service performed by VF’s independent registered public accounting firm and the related fees. During the year, circumstances may arise when it may become necessary to engage the independent registered public accounting firm for additional services not contemplated in the original pre-approval categories. In those instances, the Audit Committee requires specific pre-approval before engaging the independent registered public accounting firm.

Ratification of The Selection of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

Report of the Audit Committee. The Audit Committee reports as follows with respect to the audit of VF’s consolidated financial statements for the fiscal year ended April 3, 2021 (the “2021 Financial Statements”). At meetings of the Audit Committee held in May 2021, the Audit Committee (i) reviewed and discussed with management the 2021 Financial Statements and, for the fiscal year ended April 3, 2021, the audit of internal control over financial reporting; (ii) discussed with PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP the matters required to be discussed by applicable requirements of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (the “PCAOB”) and the Securities and Exchange Commission which include, among other items, matters related to the conduct of the audit of the 2021 Financial Statements; and (iii) received the written disclosures and the letter from PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP required by applicable requirements of the PCAOB regarding their communications with the Audit Committee concerning independence and discussed with PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP their independence from VF. Based on the foregoing review and discussions, the Audit Committee recommended to the Board of Directors that the 2021 Financial Statements as audited by PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP be included in VF’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended April 3, 2021 to be filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

APPENDIX A

V.F. Corporation

Independence Standards of The Board of Directors

To be considered independent under the Listing Standards of the NYSE, the Board must determine that a director does not have any direct or indirect (as a partner, shareholder or officer of an organization that has a relationship with VF) material relationship with VF by broadly considering all relevant facts and circumstances. Material relationships can include commercial, industrial, banking, consulting, legal, accounting, charitable and familial relationships, among others. The Board’s determination of each director’s independence will be disclosed annually in VF’s proxy statement. The Board has established the following categorical standards to assist it in determining director independence in accordance with the NYSE rules:

| • |  | No director who is an employee, or whose immediate family member is an executive officer, of VF can be considered independent until three years after termination of such employment relationship.

| • |  | No director who is affiliated with or employed by, or whose immediate family member is affiliated with or employed in a professional capacity by, a present or former internal or external auditor of the company can be considered independent until three years after the end of the affiliation or employment or auditing relationship.

| • |  | No director can be considered independent if he or she is employed, or if his or her immediate family member is employed, as an executive officer of another company where any of VF’s present executives serve on the other company’s compensation committee until three years after the end of such service or employment relationship.

| • |  | No director can be considered independent if he or she receives, or his or her immediate family member receives, more than $100,000 per year in direct compensation from VF, other than director and committee fees and pension or other forms of deferred compensation for prior service (provided such compensation is not contingent in any way on continued service) until three years after he or she or his or her immediate family member ceases to receive more than $100,000 per year in such compensation.

| • |  | No director can be considered independent if he or she is an executive officer or employee of another company not including a charitable organization (or an immediate family member of the director is an executive officer of such company) that makes payments to, or receives payments from, VF for property or services in an amount which, in any single fiscal year, exceeds the greater of $1 million or 2% of such other company’s consolidated gross revenues until three years after falling below such threshold.

| • |  | VF will disclose, in its annual proxy statement, any charitable contributions made by VF to a charitable organization if the charitable organization is one in which a VF director serves as an executive officer and, within the preceding three years, charitable contributions made by VF in any single fiscal year exceed the greater of $1 million or 2% of such charitable organization’s consolidated gross revenues. This disclosure does not automatically result in a determination against that director’s independence; however, the Board will consider the materiality of this relationship in its overall affirmative determination of that director’s independence status.

| • |  | The Board, as part of its self-evaluation will review all commercial, industrial, banking, consulting, legal, accounting, charitable, and familial relationships between VF and its directors.

| • |  | For relationships not qualifying within the above guidelines, the determination of whether the relationship is material, and therefore whether the director is independent, shall be made by the Board. The Company will explain in the next proxy statement the basis for any Board determination that a relationship was immaterial despite the fact that it did not meet the categorical standards of immateriality set forth in the above guidelines.

In addition, members of the Audit Committee of the Board are subject to heightened standards of independence under the NYSE rules and the SEC rules and regulations.
