Blending their signature design languages, BEAMS BOY and Vans collaborated for a “Vintage Orange” iteration of Vans Authentic, drawing inspiration from thrift culture and worn-in Americana references.
From the skate silhouette to its finer details, the shoe’s aged appearance makes it an attention-grabbing companion to any daily rotation. The design takes cues from Vans’ USA 1980s-made models, alongside a faded orange finish and a handwritten-style price tag that makes it seem like a fresh thrift store pickup. BEAMS BOY’s playful touch is not to be missed, with the transparent outsole subtly revealing the brand’s ‘lying down heart’ graphic at every step.
