Exclusive Vans® Premium Authentic unisex sneakers in canvas
you'll only find here. Vans began in 1966 when brothers Paul and Jim Van Doren opened the Van Doren Rubber Company in Anaheim, California. The shop made and sold shoes directly to its customers, becoming popular with skateboarders for their light weight and extra-grip soles. By the '70s, the brand name was shortened to Vans and became synonymous with laid-back Southern California style. The Authentic (originally called the #44 Deck Shoe) was the brand's first sneaker and its simple design has stood the test of time. Vans has upgraded their classic sneaker, combining original archival details with premium materials. They've added cushy, durable and comfortable Sola Foam ADC insoles designed to be anti-fatigue. This version of Premium Authentic reissue sneakers is made with durable eight-ounce cotton canvas uppers, waffle-rubber outsoles and the iconic Vans heel tab. Please note that sizes listed are men's. To find your women's size, subtract 1.5 from your normal size for the best fit. For example, a women's size 8.5 is a men's size 7.
