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 lace-up profile, the Pastel Block Authentic combines our classic low top shoe with colorblocked canvas uppers in a range of pastels. This time-honored silhouette also includes metal eyelets and signature rubber waffle outsoles.
