Japanese lifestyle brand TOGA works in collaboration with Vans to create its own design iteration of the Authentic silhouette. The two are no strangers to one another, having worked together three years prior. The Authentic gets a new look that stems from a Western influence with a Japanese flair.
These will officially launch on September 1st and will come with socks as well. Visually, the shoes have a black western bird concept that is carefully stitched on the foundation of a white canvas material throughout the upper. It is then finished with contrast details that are sewn in a zig-zag style. Additionally, the rubber base and tongue unit are blacked out with co-branding along the insole.
