A special edition of Vans' "Authentic" sneakers has been released, featuring an aged look reminiscent of deadstock from the 1980s.
2026.04.11

This release features a special edition of Vans' classic sneaker, the 'Authentic'.
The design draws inspiration from vintage shoes of the 1980s, recreating the faded orange color that appears to have developed over many years. The brownish orange is combined with the aged tones of the outsole and laces, resulting in a slightly yellowish nuance. The distinctive feature is a texture that looks as if the shoes have been displayed in a store for many years and become sun-bleached.
Furthermore, to create a vintage feel as if the shoes were about 45 years old, every detail was carefully considered to capture the nuances of aging. The result is a natural, well-worn look.
As a special accessory, we've included a handwritten-style price tag (sticker) inspired by shoes sold in thrift shops and vintage stores. The price tag is designed to reflect the actual retail price, enhancing the realism.
Furthermore, in true BEAMS BOY style, the brand's iconic "reclining heart" is placed on the clear sole. The design, which subtly peeks out from the sole of your foot with every step, has become an iconic detail of this model.
