Disappointed - The stitching on the shoe is coming apart after only wearing the shoe for a couple of weeks. Very disappointing considering the amount of money we spent on the shoe and also a brand that is typically high quality.

Best Girl's Shoe Made - These are the most wonderful little girl's shoes ever made! My daughter has them in several colors, and never ceases to get compliment after compliment. They fit her foot beautifully and are true to size. Though they are a bit on the pricey side for a child's shoe, they are made of high quality materials which allow the foot to sufficiently flex when walking. This is not the case with many of the higher and lower priced brands that tend to be too stiff. Help your child avoid a lifetime of foot ailments by buying them good shoes like these!

Great fit for a wide foot - Excellent quality. The first non-wide sized shoe I have ordered for my daughter's XXW foot, but we had to have the baby pink patent for Easter, I thought for one day it would be okay. I was very pleasantly surprised to find that it fit her comfortably in the next size up, didn't look too big or fit too loosely and she was very comfortable wearing it. It looks adorable and the sole makes all the difference as far as comfort goes. Excellent quality, great looking shoe.

We bought these trying to avoid buying shoes made in China. They are adorable in silver. My daughter loves them, and her friends keep asking to try them on.

BMX and Trials riding shoe. If u ride bmx or a trials bike, and don't ride clipped-in, then u will love the traction u will get with these shoes. Get some mean caged pedals and put your vans covered foot on em and BOOM ! You will be glued to these. Boom ! Ha ha ha.

Absolutely the coolest old school vans... Always comfy, they get cooler as they age. Before Vans moved to heavy leather based athletic style shoes I would buy a pair of these every other year. Bar none the comfiest shoes for walking, skating, working--much better than Chucks. Maybe not the best support or performance, but soooo versatile.

VANS-best mens' canvas casual shoe I have been wearing these shoes since 1978 when I used to live only one block from the very first Vans retail store in Anaheim, CA. I have owned several styles, and I wish some would come back along with more colors. SUPER SHOES!

Great Shoes. This is the best shoe ever! It has the classic Vans look and the great waffle skate design on the bottom. The best skate shoe I've ever had! The only problem is, because it's canvas, it tears whenever you skate! (You have to bend your foot, so the canvas rubs up agains the griptape.) But if you don't skate, no problem! GET THESE NOW!

"Long time no see old friend" I was a teenager in San Fernando valley California in the 70's. The only shoe that kids wore were Vans. Before school started in the fall kids would have custom Vans made to match their clothes or would buy the latest color out. All types of kids wore Vans, from skete boarders, bike riders, surfers, low riders, valley girls, punk rockers to nerds. I left Caifornia, moved to the midwest and rarely saw Vans again. 25 years later the hottest shoes for my kids to get for school are Vans. I think I'll get the kids some Vans, and I'll get me a pair of Old Skools!

Comfortable customs - I began wearing Vans in the early 80's, I had the red and white "tropical" slip on style and loved them! Now I use the classic style for bowling shoes, custom painted, but, they would be more comfortable if the ankel area was padded like the slip-ons. I love the surface area of the toes, it allows for relly cool designs without much extra stitching to work around. VANS FOREVER!

Attention all bikers - Anyone who rides with platform pedals need look no further that the Authentic Vans shoes. The flat platform of the shoe combined with the sticky rubber that incorporates a unique pattern that is perfect for any platform pedal.
