Top 5: Vans Authentic moments.

Vans really need no introduction, especially not the Vans Authentic. They’re the original shoe that define Vans' heritage, since their launch in 1966. They were originally dubbed Style #44 upon their beginnings, however have become known as the Authentic ever since then.

The shoe has become renowned for its durability and versatility, a blank canvas from which creative expression can be explored. Though they began as a style that caught the eye of Southern Californian surfers and skaters, they’ve since expanded into a worldwide brand, and a world-renowned product.
