Born in Anaheim, California in 1966, the Authentic is the original Vans heritage style. Originally known 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 low top, lace-up profile, the Kids Skate Dragon Authentic combines our classic low top shoe with an allover print featuring a gnarly skateboarding dragon. This time-honored silhouette also includes sturdy textile uppers, metal eyelets, and signature rubber waffle outsoles.
