My six year old son only wears slip on Vans for the way they look and the ease of getting them on and off quickly. We have been buying them for years. He goes through them pretty quickly, but they last a long time for how he wears them! This time, not so much! We had them two weeks and they were barely worn and the entire white side sole started to peel off from the shoe all the way around! Of course after calling Zappos, they took care of this, but I was very disappointed in Vans. We finally convinced my son to try another brand of sneakers and he is really liking his Converse.

These look so cute on my little boy's feet I can hardly stand it! He does have Fred Flintstone feet so they are a little bit of a challenge to get on, but I ordered them a half a size bigger so it's not too bad. Love these little shoes!

Bought these shoes for my three year old son for several reasons. He can slip them on himself (builds confidence), they're comfortable (important to a pre-schooler), blue (his favorite color), good stability (important to me), and I love the look of Vans. Great buy.

Van's are my son's staple shoe. They are so cute, I get tons of compliments, they're easy to slip on but don't fall off, and are very durable. You can't ask for better quality for your toddler.

Love these sneakers! We always buy Vans for my 3 year old son. He loves all of the different colors and styles. They are very comfortable and easy for him to put on and take off himself. Great quality. They really hold up very well. Love the 'old school' style of this pair.

My son loves these shoes. great for learning how to skate with and just jumping around. Zappos has excellent service. I could get them anywhere but I love how fast the shoes can come and I love that it's free shipping. One of my favorite sites to shop on.

The shoes are great. He is new at walking, and had only had soft shoes before so it took him a while to learn to walk in such stiff soled shoes. Now there is no stopping him. They are well made like all Vans. He loves them.

These look just like the adult version! Just look at size chart provided and measure your child's feet accordingly. Being a first time dad, I ordered a size too big. Kids grow so fast, so I kept them anyhow!

This is the fifth pair of Vans classic slip-ons that I have bought for my son (15 months old). It started out a sentimental thing, because my husband wore them as a boy. But they are so comfy, and easy to get on and off his feet that we continued the tradition! Not to mention, they get very high style points. The world of clothing & shoes is geared toward girls, with not many options for boys. This is one sure pick!

The shoes are great. I got it for my 4 year old son. He wore them with a white suit for a wedding and it looked adorable. I must say thank you for the previous review since the shoe size does run larger. My son's true size is 11, I ordered this shoe in size 10 and it was perfect fit. Lastly, thank you Zappos for the great service and fast shipping.

My 3 year old loves these because he can just slip them on and off easily by himself without needing anyone's help to tie them because there are no laces. They don't keep feet warm in the winter but they are great for summer and warm seasons. Also as easy as flip-flops to put on but much more stylish!

These run big! Very cute but I had to send them back a couple of times to get the right fit. My son is normally an 10.5 (heading toward an 11) but we ended up going with a 10 in the end. And even then I stuffed a little paper in the toe to stop him from slipping around.

My son and I love these shoes. This was his third pair. The slip on style is wonderful for allowing little ones to be able to put on their own shoes, they are classic, and, come on, just look at them!
