Vans is celebrating the 60th anniversary of its classic Authentic with the launch of a star-studded Spring 2026 campaign featuring artists who embody the creative drive and individuality of the brand’s “Off The Wall” slogan.
The lineup of creatives featured in the campaign includes artist and Vans Creative Director SZA, Paramore frontwoman Hayley Williams, Blink-182 drummer Travis Barker, Turnstile bassist Franz Lyons, and pro skaters Lizzie Armanto and Tristan “T-Funk” Funkhouser.
The Vans Authentic was first introduced in 1966 as the Style 44 deck shoe before becoming a staple in skateboarding culture. After sixty years in the game, the Authentic is recognized as more than just footwear — it’s a global icon that defies conformity and highlights creative expression and freedom for those who live authentically.
The campaign is accompanied by the release of the “Off The Wall” Authentic pack, featuring new colorways of the silhouette’s most iconic designs — from checkerboard and floral prints to needlework and shell knit styles.
The Vans “Off The Wall” Authentic pack will be available starting March 12th on Vans.com and at select retailers, with additional colorways releasing on April 2nd. Check out the collection and campaign below.
