VansVans Authentic Racing Red Blue

A red forefoot set against a blue rear quarter gives the Vans Authentic Racing Red Blue (VN000EHHIZQ1) its two-tone look. This men's skate shoe keeps the familiar low-top profile and brings contrasting color to a straightforward everyday design. Blue covers the rear quarter, while racing red spans the forefoot and toe. White laces, a white sole with a thin blue stripe, and white stitching complete the contrast. Paul and Jim Van Doren designed the Authentic, which debuted in 1966 as Style 44. Southern California skateboarders adopted the model in the early 1970s.
