A Vans' classic canvas shoe for the ladies. Keeping things real since '66. The women's Authentic shoes from Vans have stayed true to their roots since 1966. Now they've become a classic for any casual occasion. The Authentic was the first lace-up shoe featuring Vans' signature waffle bottom construction and original vulcanized sole. Check out more unisex colorways here.

Sole
Vulcanized - “Vulc” shoes are light, flexible and break in quickly. The sole consists of several layers of rubber, glued together then attached to the upper with rubber foxing tape. Vulcanized soles don’t provide as much foot protection or support as cupsoles, but they are preferred if you’re looking for good board feel in a shoe with less weight and bulk.
Details
Original Waffle Outsole - Back in '66, Paul van Doren made the first soles of his new shoes twice as thick so they would wear longer. That decision ended up defining the company when the world's first skateboarders discovered how Vans' rubber Waffle Outsole let them feel their board while staying firmly connected to it.

Vans Women's Authentic Shoes - island paradise/true white
Exactly what I ordered! I thought this would be a knock-off of some sort since the price was so good, but they are perfect! Would order again =)
Exactly what I was looking for. It's hard to find a good shoe with a black base

Vans Women's Authentic Shoes - (hawaiian floral) black
The shoes were true to size, super comfortable and stylish. They go well with anything! I'm so glad I finally found a retailer who sold Vans in this style. Thank you Tactics for the cute shoes and fast shipping!

Yes they do! Vans is listed as a Strategic Cause Partnership with ASPCA, meaning that some of the proceeds are donated to animal welfare programs. More information can be found on the ASPCA website through the following link:
