They're adorable, but OUCH! My boy/girl twins love Vans for all the funky styles they come in and luckily the regular "old school" slip on Vans fit my son beautifully. My daughter, however, has a wide foot with a high arch and never fit in the slip-ons so she was thrilled when we found this style. We put them on and they fit her foot beautifully! She loved them and wore them around the house for about 10 minutes before she started crying and trying to rip them off her feet. In that short time she had rubbed a monster blister onto the side of her heel. I can feel the part in the shoes that caused this and I don't think even with really thick socks this wouldn't continue to give her blisters so we sent them back. Very disappointing because they were so cute!

Great shoes for a toddler -
We had a pair of these as hand me downs for both of my kids so when we grew out, I needed to find a larger size. I would have loved red, as a more versatile color but the pink are a hit for my little girl and she puts them on all by herself now.

Perfect shoes - I just ordered these for my 22 month old daughter and she loves them. Some shoes she's had have been too tight for her feet as she has a high arch. But these fit perfectly and they are very adjustable. Also, she can do the velcro herself to put them on and take them off! For the other ratings, I have a hard time comparing them. They may be a little wider but that is probably because they can be tightened? Also, I'm not sure really about the arch support but my daughter seems comfortable in them!

I bought these for my 3 year old after buying the good ole slip on vans. These appear wider, and she doesn't like to wear them as much as the slip on version. They feel good inside, & I believe offer enough support, & they were definitely cute. Being a former skateboarder myself, it's fun to get these kinds of things for my kid, as they weren't this readily available when I was on a board back in the day!

I love them, but more importantly, my daughter loves them. She has a thing for shoes, and these seem to meet her high standards.

Great shoe for toddler who wants to do it all -
When my daughter learned to put on her own shoes, we tried a pair of velcro Vans. She loves them so much we now have 5 pairs and they wash up really nice so you can keep them clean. My daughter's fav part is she can put them on and take them off ALL BY HERSELF.

Fantastic -
I bought these for my daughter...her first pair of sneakers! They fit perfectly and she really loves them. So when her twin brother needed a new pair of sneakers, I bought him the same style but with the rocket ships/planets on them. He loves them too! I highly recommend these shoes.

Cuter than expected!
My 2 1/2 year old daughter loved these shoes from the moment I opened the box, which speaks to the color and dolphins. She chooses to wear them often because she can put them on herself.

Very stylish shoe!
These shoes are so adorable. My 2 year old always begs to put them on and she looks so cute in them. I ordered a size smaller as some reviewers suggested but when I got them they were too small, so I shipped them back (which was an absolutely wonderful service) and ordered a new pair in her original size. They fit great! I'll be ordering more soon! Thanks Zappos!

These shoes are great! My 12 month old daughter pushes her car back and forth on our patio in these shoes. I love the velcro closure! Cute designs.

GREAT shoe for a high arch -
This is my daughter's first pair of sneakers at age 2 and a half. Previously, we have been unable to find a sneaker into which her very high arch would fit, velcro or not. She LOVED the turtle print I ordered, and never wants to take them off!

A great shoe for early walkers!
These were the first sporty style shoe we got for our granddaughter when she first began walking at 11 months. They quickly became our favorite shoe to put on her and (though she couldn't have cared less) garnered many compliments by others - we got the pink/white with sea turtle design. We favored the shoe so much that I have since re-ordered it again in the next size. That way my granddaughter can enjoy her 'way cool' look as much as we did!!

Cute as can be and practical too!
These are the best! They are easy to get on and off. The velcro is wonderful and so far is staying 'tight.' We got the pink and white checked ones, and they are kickin. My girl is stylin in these sneaks.

Cool Vans for Toddlers -
They seem to fit my daughter's fat little feet perfectly, not tight at all. Easy to get her feet in and out and easy for her to even take on and off. And we love the pink 80's checked design. So RAD! I would definitely buy another style.

HIP, FUNCTIONAL and GIRLY all at once!
We got the pink and white checkers and my 2 1/2 year old daughter LOVES them! Her 5 year old brother has the black and white version and she had to have a pair of her own... Love the sturdy rubber toe - holds up well on scooters and at the park - and love the velcro closures. Both kids will actually do their shoes themselves! Mostly we just LOVE how cool and cute they are :) Stylish and sporty - girly and functional all at once! LOVE THEM
They do seem to run a little large, but both kids find them comfortable... (Great for wider feet).

Vans are great kids shoes. They are totally comfy and easy on/off. My daughter who is now 4 has been wearing them since 18 mnths old. We've gone though 5 pairs of slip ons. She picked the "Big Skool" on her own b/c she loved the hearts design and the velcro on/off factor. Luv em, luv em, luv em. And they go with anything too!
