    This is a great shoe. Classic design. Perfect Vans fit. Just notice that there is no padding around the ankle as there is on other Vans shoes. I like the shoes, but if I were to make them perfect, they'd have that padding like the slip-ons do.

    These are just simple, classic shoes. I find them comfortable and wear them almost everyday. If your not used to these type of shoes (Converse, Chuck Taylors, Pro-Keds, Court King Oxfords, etc.) then you may not like them.

    Shoe Size: Felt a half size smaller than marked Shoe Arch: Moderate arch support Shoe Width: Felt true to width

    These shoes are dope. I've always worn the classic lace-up Vans, but never a black pair. I always felt the black canvas/white rubber was too high-contrast, and the all black ones to be too how should I put this Hot Topic, Well, the black hemp/brown rubber looks as awesome as the picture in person. Plus, it's made of hemp. Great shoes! I wear them with no socks until they smell like butt and feel like I'm walking in tar. Not much arch support, whatever.

    Shoe is pretty plain like the all black authentics, except for the sole being different and also it being hemp. It is very soft and comfortable to walk it. Love Authentics because they dont scratch the back of my heel like Eras do.
