Great shoes - They fit perfect, absolutely no problems. As always Zappos comes through better than most skateboard websites.

The Perfect White Tenny! I was looking for a cute, plain white, round toe tennis shoe to bum around in. It's harder than it sounds! But I went to Zappos, entered my parameters and voila! These cute VANS popped up. They are comfortable, fit true to size and had the clean, retro look I was after. I have a boney instep but these felt fine. I THINK I can wash them in the machine, too. They are a super cute shoe! AAA+++

It is good to be back in Vans again. I always used to wash them first (to slightly shrink them) and it worked the same as always this time too. Before washing it was slightly loose but perfect now.

My NEW favorite shoe(s)- I purchased these shoes trying to venture out into my style and I instantaneously fell in love with them! Today I spilt bleach on them, sadly, but I love them so much I don't even care going out buying another pair; they are that special to me, and they’re CHEAP!!! In the past I was a Jordan person (and I still am) but with a shoe that cost less than 1/3 of the shoes that I use to purchase I can purchase 2 or 3 at a time and still have money in my pocket. I LOVE 'EM!

Not perfect, but a good option. It's not the most comfortable or best looking shoe you could find, but as far as something to throw on when you just want to run out to the corner market, it's great. My only recommendation would be to get cushiony insoles if you're planning on standing around in them. The soles are very thin and flat so they don't offer much comfort.

Comfortable (though not much arch support-they feel similar to Converse All Stars). They have a nice, simple look-I’ve received a number of compliments on them.

Great Shoe! Great classic! I have had a few pairs of these and they take a beating! Comfortable for walking around, I wouldn't recommend a long hike in them, but great for getting around during the day!

White Vans - I love these shoes, they are ultra comfy and the TRUE WHITE is a staple for the summer. The cost is very reasonable; HOWEVER, it seems that Zappos has a better quality of shoe than Vans.com. I noticed that the Pairs you purchase from Vans.com the sole of those shoes are thinner and they look like variants. Zappos is THE PLACE to purchase alllll your Vans shoes!!!!

Can't beat Vans or Zappos - I knew before I even ordered this shoe that it would be just what I wanted. My son wears Vans and he had been trying to get this black on black classic shoe at a store in our area, but they never had his size. I found them on Zappos, ordered them, and had them the very next day. They fit just like the other Vans Classics he has - true to size and he loves them. I am not sure about the arch support, since he has never mentioned it, but has never complained, so I listed it as moderate.

One of THE best... I just purchased these shoes and they are one of the most comfortable pairs of shoes I own. They look super casual and look especially good with jeans and a t-shirt. They're great for walking around in all day in, as well!

EXCELLENT SERVICE...FIVE STARS! Excellent service...by far the best and fastest service I received throughout the holiday season! My teenagers LOVE the shoes and won't wear anything but Vans and we had plenty of variety to pick from at Zappos. I would not buy shoes from anyone but Zappos. Fair prices and the best service ever!

Rad- These shoes continue to be one of Vans biggest hits because they really are the ideal casual sneaker. They match with everything, they're real comfortable, and they're pretty rad.

Just what he wanted! Good shoe, good price. His last pair lasted him for over a year which is remarkable for a canvas shoe and a 14-year old boy! He loves his white Vans and was thrilled with a new pair for his birthday. Zappos is the only place to buy Vans. Fair price and SUPER quick shipping. I have never been unhappy with Zappos! Cheers!

Love my Vans! This is my 8th pair of Vans. I love them because they are a simple, colorful, fun shoe. Support could be better, so I don't wear them for walking, but they are the best for a casual look.

I received these shoes as a gift after eyeing them for weeks. Although, I love the style and overall look of the shoe-it is terribly uncomfortable. I've noticed a review that mentioned that the shoe should be purchased a half-size larger, but a few mentioned that the shoe fits true to size. I would definitely recommend purchasing it in a larger size. Unfortunately, I wore mine for about :30 and the sole reveals that it's been worn, so I'm stuck!

Dear Zappos, I just had to write. I am so blown away with the speedy delivery of my order that I placed YESTERDAY! I am so excited and never expected that my order would be delivered so quickly. Thank you SO MUCH, Zappos is awesome. I was so thrilled, I went around and told everyone in my office about my experience. Surprisingly several folks had not heard of Zappos - but THEY DO NOW! I am anxious to go back online and see what else I can order. It's easier than driving to the mall in Houston to pick it up. Thanks again so much for exemplary service. Millions of other online providers could learn so much from your service policy. And P.S. - I loved the flap on the box that says "Packed with Happiness". I felt happy to receive it! Sincerely, Stacy T.
