I bought these shoes for my eight year old son. After wearing them for less than a week, the rubber on the front of the shoes began to peel away along with the Vans label on the rear of the shoes. The rubber on the toes is doubled and it is the doubled layer that is peeing away. I believe this is caused because of the "Rad" black paint on the soles. The second layer of rubber and the Vans logo just does not seem to the first layer of rubber like it needs to. But Zappos makes the exchange process incredibly easy. I will definitely shop Zappos again! Thanks!

Very uncomfortable shoe, particularly for Vans. But my child loves the look so we're slowly, slowly helping him wear them in so they'll be comfortable enough to wear at some point.
