The Los Angeles brand added sun-faded blue canvas, yellowed soles, and oversized vintage patches to both styles. Shoppers can remove or rearrange the patches and add brass beads for custom looks. The Authentic also carries co-branded leather labels while the Half Cab includes leather kiltie tassels.
