A Christmas angel for a Foster Child who requested Vans. They looked great and the delivery was awesome! I cannot provide any rating on fit because I do not know the recipient. But, they sure looked cool!

First thing I have to say is, Zappos is amazing! I ordered these shoes yesterday (December 23rd) and received them today at noon. I can't say enough about Zappos customer service, they are the blueprint for the rest of the retail world! Now the Vans, they are like wearing a pair of your favorite slippers, so comfortable right out of the box just like I remembered them to be. I have been waiting for Vans to put out this shoe in black and red for a long time. I can't be happier with this purchase!

I'm ol'surfer who prefers Vans Shoes from Zappos. Service & Price are key. Old Skool has the fit and comfort I need after doing the rock dance at Rincon Point. More than any other Vans model I've found. The Oldman Of Da Sea

I love these shoes! I feel they run true to size, but they do take a little time to break in, the heel of the shoe is a little hard so I had to wear a band-aid on each heel the first few times I wore the shoe to avoid blisters. All and all it was worth it! They look great with skinny jeans!

Really like the way these shoes look and feel. They run a little big so I had to return my first pair and get a smaller size. After that they were great.

Fits perfect, my son loves these shoes. They were a little wide, which is why we chose them.

Great shoe and even better customer service. Didn't like a particular color and a replacement was sent out before the other was returned. And no new charges on my card! Thanks again. A+ experience

My son really likes these shoes- he is hard on shoes and these seem to be holding up well.
