The Vans Authentic shoe was the first model produced by Vans since its inception in 1966. It was designed by Paul Van Doren, the company's founder, and remains popular today in skateboarding, punk and many other cultures where it has earned a reputation as an iconic shoe.
Materials
Upper
Textile: The textile upper of the sneakers is lightweight, breathable and comfortable, ideal for everyday wear and sports. It ensures air circulation, keeps feet fresh and adapts to their shape. Often complemented with synthetic or rubber details for durability and support.
Midsole
Rubber: a material that is very easy to maintain and you will appreciate it especially in rainy weather.
Sole
Wafer: The legendary sole that will never lose touch with the surface. It is especially typical for Vans sneakers.
Van Doren Rubber Co. was founded in 1966 by Paul Van Doren in Anaheim, California. The brand’s unique journey began when Paul experimented with molding soles on a classic waffle maker—an unconventional idea at the time that has since become a cornerstone of modern footwear. At Footshop, we offer a wide range of Vans apparel, sneakers, and accessories for men, women, and children in a variety of styles and colors.
Returns possible until January 15.
