The Authentic is the original Vans deck shoe that became a skateboarding standard, its no-nonsense build already something of a ‘deconstructed’ look. In fact, the easiest way to tell the Authentic from the Era is the former’s utter lack of ankle cushioning, but apparently it can be stripped down even further. The Vans California Authentic Decon CA proves that you need little more than a quality full grain leather to show off this 1966 original in its purest form. Click through to get a better look at how the rich navy blue leather perfectly blends with the upscale feel of waxed corded laces and look for these at select Vans retailers starting July 1st. via HB
