We've always loved Authentics because it's the type of sneaker you're not afraid to beat up during summer months. Besides them coming in all colors, it's not going to hurt your pockets when it's time to re-up.
That said, some are more high-brow than others, which takes us to this perforated black/blue colorway off Vans' more exclusive Vault line. Think of these when it's time to compliment the chinos, not the ripped skinny jeans. Check VV retailers right now.
