This is probably one of the best Vans out there, they are great for skating. Durable sole, and suede upper lasts a long time. They are also really stylish and can be worn with just about anything.

The Vans SK-8 Hi Core Classic shoe is nice looking, has great support and comfort. These shoes were bought for my 12 year old daughter who loves them!

Very good for skate boarding, class SK-8 Style needs to remain in production. Moderate to no arch support. The canvas style appears tighter than the suede. Use a good insole for these shoes, but not as much as the Converse Chuck Taylor All-Star brands. When using insoles don't go any size lower for a wide or irregular foot; however, order a half size smaller for a narrow foot.

Comments and compliments on a Classics. These skate shoes feel good and better with Miracle Molding Insoles. Just a reminder, if you consider implementing Miracle Molding Insoles in these classics, consider ordering your normal size on narrower shoes because of the space these insoles take or maybe a half size bigger, moving a half or full size lower will cramp your feet, especially the toes.

Great Shoes!
I have been wearing Vans shoes for about 28 years. I love the look and style, and the way the shoe fits. Besides these Sk8 Hi Vans, also look for the Sk8 Mids, Slip Ons, Authentics, Era 45, Half Cabs, and other Vans, which are all available here at Zappos! You will not be disappointed.

Best suede sneakers -
I got the black-on-black suede ones. They look great. Very comfortable. I used to buy Simple brand suede sneakers, but they don't make them anymore. These are a good substitute. The heel of these is a bit wide for me, but I have a narrow heel anyways.

Gift -
I bought these shoes as a gift to my husband for his birthday (30) he says he loves them and reminds him of his first pair of skate shoes but even more comfortable. Vans were all he would wear but he'd wear out the soles fairly quick. As for comfort he has never said this about the other, popular, (and more expensive) skate shoes.

Nice shoe!
I actually ordered 2 pairs of these. One was for my oldest daughter, and they were so nice-looking that my youngest daughter wanted a pair, also. They look much better when actually worn than they do in a picture. My rating is based on my girl's comments.

I just got these in the mail (purchased them elsewhere). Ordered them in brown and black and was totally disappointed. I actually ordered Report's Miley boot from Zappos and liked them much better than the Tianna boot. For one, the slouch on the Tianna was totally different for all 4 boots! The toe of the boot was really hard and pressed down on my toes so I just knew that these were going to be trouble. They also make me look like a pirate version of Olive Oyl because I have really thin legs. I'm sure these look great on girls with fuller calves, but if you have really thin calves and want a comfortable boot, I would avoid these. The Reports may not be suede, but to me, they look and feel MUCH better. :)

These are really great shoes. They run a little big about half a size big. The only down side is that they don't really have any arch support, but other than that they look and feel great!

CLASSIC -
I been wearing these for over 20 years and they still look and feel classic. No obvious changes to the design. I got the all suede uppers, which is new, but really no difference. I wear 9.5 vans, 9 converse, 9.5 adidas and 10 Nike and Puma. Hope that helps.

SKATE AND DESTROY!!!
These are a must for any thrasher. The ankle support is like none other. If you want a solid shoe that won't tear up quickly and offers full protection, these are the only solution. From the curb to the pool SK8-Hi kids.

Awesome!!!!
I think these shoes are awesome, but don't give up if they aren't that comfortable at the start, they do break in in a few days. They skate pretty well. I've had them for a week, and the only signs of wear are on the left shoe which is a little rubber wear that’s it. Now stop reading and buy them!!!!!

Could use a little more padding for the sole but still a great shoe, classic look. True to its size as well.

Vans SK8-Hi are very hard to find, especially suede. Zappos has the most and hopefully they will get the red ones in one day. They really do fit 1/2 size larger. They are comfortable and warm and the rain and snow doesn’t bother them much either.

Great Shoes, Long Wearing!
These shoes are great; I bought them in a size larger than my son usually wears, because he has a very wide foot. I know that Vans will never let us down as far as quality and style go. We also had a great experience with Zappos! Super fast, free shipping-how can you beat that? We now know where to go for our Vans!

Impossible shipping speed -
I can't hardly believe how fast the shipping is. I ordered online after dinner on a Sunday woke up early Monday and the shoes were at the door mysteriously. Has Zappos found a way to teleport items? You tell me.
Zappos is number 1 in my book! Can't be beat!

Vans SK8-Hi™ Core Classics [Black/Black Suede] are very hard to find and are only run in very limited productions. I think only once or twice per year. I chose these over any other as the all black look is slick and does not show dirt n grime! I use em for skating, casual and dress shoes. You’re a fool if ya don't like Vans anyway!

Yay -
They're awesome. At first they were really tight around the pinky toe area, but after a few days of walking around, it broke in. Now they fit fine, and of course they look great.

 |  | I ordered these shoes on the 23rd, and here they were on our doorstep by Mon. the 26th! I love the shoes, and ZAPPOS IS INCREDIBLE. I really appreciate dealing with you guys – you are the best. I am 78 and do not particularly like to go to the Mall – but I can go to Zappos Mall and I like it there. Thanks again. |  | ~ Joann K., October 26 2009
