Authentic Shoes 

The Vans Authentic shoe has been around since 1966, and it’s here to stay.  

The Ultimate Authentic Sneaker 

Iconic and legendary, our authentic sneakers are the original Vans shoes. Stay true to the groundbreaking Vans design with our classic Authentic Shoe. With lace-up closures, sturdy canvas uppers, and our signature rubber waffle outsoles, these heritage low-top shoes are the go-to authentic sneakers for a timeless and casual look. 

Play around with color for a look that’s authentically you. From all black shoes or black and white to navy, red, and bitter chocolate, you can find our authentic sneakers in a color and design that matches your sense of style. Love the feel of our authentic shoe style? Why not get them in more than one color! 

Authentic Shoes Provide All-Day Comfort 

Love the legendary Vans aesthetic but want extra support for long days on your feet? Whether you’re perfecting tricks on the half-pipe or putting in a long shift at work, our Authentic ComfyCush™ Shoe will keep your feet comfortable and cozy.  

With added arch support and rubber outsole for extra durability and traction, these shoes can handle whatever you throw at them. With moisture-wicking lining materials, you can stay active for hours on end. 

Vintage Styles with a Modern Twist 

Bring the legendary Vans style into the modern era with new designs, materials, and Off The Wall twists. For a casual, relaxed, and refined look, try the Era Pig Suede Shoe. Originally designed for skateboarders in the 1970s, it’s built with an emphasis on comfort and style. 

For a preppy cool look, try the Era 59 Shoe in Navy Chevron. To add a bit of height and a touch of extra flair, check out our Authentic Stackform Shoe. With all the awesome features of the original authentic sneaker and an added 34 mm platform, it’s the perfect nod to vintage vibes.
