Vans Skate Authentic – Black/Black/Gum

Completely redesigned for modern skateboarding, the Skate Classics collection delivers more of what skateboarders need to enable maximum progression. A vulcanized shoe made with classic suede and canvas uppers, the Skate Authentic gives you the iconic look you want while bringing all the performance benefits skateboarders demand.

• INCREASED DURABILITY – DURACAP reinforced materials, deeper knurl texture on the toe bumpers, and higher sidewall heights provide a heritage look with increased durability and protection.
• FULLY REDESIGNED UPPERS – Reconstructed with a molded heel counter and internal tongue straps for a locked-in fit and more board control.
• LEGENDARY GRIP – Our proprietary SickStick gum rubber compound is our stickiest rubber yet.
• POPCUSH CUSHIONING – Vans’ best cushioning and impact protection. PopCush energy return footbeds protect your feet while helping to lessen leg fatigue for longer skate sessions.
• ICONIC STYLING – A mix of suede, 10 oz canvas, and 6 oz canvas has been used at the upper, maintaining the aesthetic of the original Authentic.
