Born in Anaheim, California in 1966, the Authentic is the original Vans heritage style. Originally know as Vans #44 Deck Shoes, the Authentic became an immediate cult icon, and has embodied our “Off The Wall” attitude ever since. Constructed with a simple lace-up profile, the Retro Mart Authentic combines our classic low top shoe with a colorful retro print inspired by old school mini marts. This time-honored silhouette also features sturdy textile uppers, metal eyelets, and signature rubber waffle outsoles.
