Bought these for my husband's 39th birthday; yes he still skates! He loved them! He grew up wearing Vans so imagine how many pair he's owned! They look great with both shorts and jeans of course; will without a doubt be buying him another pair. You rock Zappos!

Very prompt delivery! Groovy shoes, excellent company, this is. I had a quality issue with the first pair of Vans I received (some heavy stitching on the top of the right shoe quickly came undone, just after 4 days). So I requested an exchange for a new, identical pair. The guy on the phone was perfectly understanding. Not only did they grant me the exchange, after a few days of wear on the shoes, they also offered me a free upgrade of overnight shipment. I received the new pair the next day, in perfect condition, and sent my worn/faulty pair back shortly after. Zappos kept me informed on both sent and received packages. As my history with this company attests, Zappos is certainly worth crowing about. They deserve to be lauded. Amen.

The shoes are everything I expected, they are sharp shoes. I question their ability to last they way they did in the 90s, but that's the way the globalization cookie crumbles I suppose. Either way, the mid-top chukkas are no longer available at the vans stores. All they have now are the low-tops which I'm sure are fine shoes, but look like your run of the mill skate shoe: bulky.

These are the best Vans I've ever owned bar none. Don't skate much any more. Rickety ancient I'm getting and all that but this little lovely is no nonsense foot wrap. If you prefer the puffy tongue, thicker soles you might want to move on but if you like maximum feel of the original sole and no nonsense upper you'll dig these. The little extra height of the chukka makes this shoe the default pick of any day. The material is a little thicker than the classic canvas and combined with the height gives the chuckchuck an excellent protection and wear rating. In a word: Dope!

Cool but not comfortable -
Like the look, but the fit isn't as good as the slip-ons. Because of that I probably won't wear them as often.

These shoes are what you expect, comfortable for walking around in, not great for running or sports. You can easily forget that you have them on.

Used to wear the original Sydney, but the new Sydney is way too tight and hurts my bunions. This shoe was the next best thing style wise. I usually wear a normal width size 8 shoe, but had to go up an entire size for this one. Without socks the shoe is a little loose, but the 8.5 was way too tight. With mid weight socks the shoe fit well. Also, the shoe seems abnormally wide to me. Would like one more hole to tighten these up. Cute style overall.

What you sacrifice in comfort, is more than made up for with the personal suaveness you achieve with these shoes...not that suaveness is a word, but when you wear Vans, you get to make up words, word.

My husband wore these shoes in high school and loved them. We were so excited to be able to buy them on Zappos. He thinks they are very comfortable and old school style which he loves. Thank you Zappos!

I bought these after not having worn them since high school in the 90s. Nice to see that they haven't changed. Comfortable overall. They take some breaking in.

Vans Chukka -
This has been my day in day out work shoe for the past eight months until the other night. My wife said my feed stink and that I should get another pair of shoes as I had stunk these up. I hate to put them aside for awhile while my stinky foot odor gets naturally removed by not wearing them for a spell. There isn't much arch support. I usually take a high arch shoe, but I have been wearing these every day with my Thorlo (TM) socks and I've been extremely comfortable. Though, I don't know how your feed could be unhappy with the combination of Vans and Thorlos.

same look as the vans I had 10 years ago, but the materials are a lot cheaper. The suede is very thin and flimsy compared to the original. Overall a very comfortable shoe.

Chukkas are a pleasant shoe -
These shoes are very white, but once they get scuffed up they look good. If you think you can live through a few weeks of people asking you if those are socks you're wearing, or just saying, "Got some brand new sneakers, huh?" then these might be the shoes for you. Of course, you could just get them in black...
I found myself doing a little preemptive commentary whenever I caught someone looking down at my feet, "Yup, they're really white, I know." And then I would just shrug.

Great Looking Shoe...Comfort So-So -
These shoes looked great when they first came out a few years ago, and they do know. Go nice with slim jeans; you won't see many others wearing them so you won't look like a clone. When I first put them on, they're very comfortable. By the end of the day, my inner toe pushes up against the hard outsole. It's very uncomfortable and hard not to be aware of it; it has no give (this isn't an issue on most other shoes). Because of the tight rubbing, they blew a hole through some socks I had probably worn only about 5 times. They're not so great as a walking shoe. If you're sitting a lot, they're fine. There. Now you know.

While this shoe looks boring and prison-esque, it is the best "streetwear shoe" a man could buy. Like Chucks, Chukkas look better with age. Super comfortable and makes one look like a city kid.

Chukkas...
I bought my first chukkas from Zappos, and let me tell you, they are great. They are pretty comfortable and they look great with some slimmer jeans. The size runs a little big though, so get a half or one size smaller.

Great shoe, great fit. I found the shoe cheaper on Vans website and Zappos beat their price. Extremely fast shipping (1 business day). I give a full recommendation.

I ordered these boots feeling a little nervous, because I couldn't actually touch them or seem them up close (although Zappos gives a great view in all directions). We received them as expected and they were great! I'm very pleased with our purchase!

Vans Chucka Boot -
Never having owned a pair of Vans, I was excited about this purchase. Overall I think they are really cool shoes, they go great with black jeans. The only issues I have had is that I had to add a pair of insoles so they were a little more comfortably padded, the supplied shoelaces were a joke, and the rubber material around the sole seems to be wearing faster than the rest of the shoe, maybe I should stop dragging my feet.
