These are very cute shoes - but as with a lot of slip-ons they can be tricky to order. My son measures 12.5 - so typically I order a 1/2 size up, which I did. The 13 was flopping off of his feet. I ordered the 12.5 and while they do fit, they also slip a bit. We did keep them since I know in a matter of a month or so they will fit properly!

Great fit and awesome style. My son loves it. May fit a little big, but not too big to return. Perfect for growing.

My sons have been wearing Vans for quite some time now. They are rough on their shoes and tend to wear out a pair of Vans every time they go up a half size, so I always order in the half sizes. These shoes run large from a half size to almost a whole size, so don't buy larger for them to grow into. If they currently wear a 13 junior, go with a Vans 13 for them to grow in. Don't even think about a half size bigger. In saying this, I get confused when I have to size them for a different brand. Well...they are a 1 in Vans...so I guess they are 2 in everything else.

We love the fun Vans shoes! They run really big though! My 4 year old wears a 12 but we had to get a 10½ for them to fit without slipping out of. Since you cannot Velcro or tighten them and children run around so often, I would start out at least a size smaller than you normally get. My son has narrow feet too. Thank goodness for free returns on Zappos!

Bought these Vans for my grandsons, ages 6 and 18 months. They love them so much, these are the only shoes they want to wear. The younger grandson was afraid of them at first but after he saw his older brother wearing them he wanted to wear his Vans. I highly recommend these fun shoes for kids.

My 4 year old had to have these. Now he wants to wear them every day. Unfortunately, these are not a great fit as he has a wide toe box and no heal, so there is slippage.

My 8 year old son has worn almost nothing but Vans for about 3 years now. We order 2 new styles each time so he can trade out & they do tend to wear out a bit quickly. He loves to jump on Zappos when they're starting to go to see what's new. He enjoys always having super cool shoes but different than what most of his friends are wearing. These Trex's are the latest favs in his long line of fun foot decorations! They run large though, so order half or full size smaller. He has a bit of a wide foot too but the slip-on's are always fine.

My son just loves these shoes. He's in 3rd grade and slip on shoes are "the cool shoes". Great price and extremely fast shipping! No rips or tears or any issues with the shoes (as with active boys you know how that goes). Highly recommend.

My son was so excited when we opened these! He absolutely loves the bright blue! But they do run a size big. We decided to keep them until he grows into them because they are not available in the next size down.

These are the most awesome kids' shoes I've ever seen, and my son loves them! What could be cooler than T-Rex skullies on skateboards?

I bought these for my best friend's son and he loves them. They run big so I had to send the first pair back for a smaller size and they are still a little big but that will give him room to grow into them. He definitely has the coolest shoes in his class!

These shoes looked great. The paint on the bottoms of the shoes has worn off, and the crease where my son's toes bend at the tip has lost paint. The paint on these cracked within two weeks' worth of normal wear.

Both my boys (age 5 and 7) have a pair of these. We get compliments on them constantly. It is nice to buy a fun shoe that isn't cheesy looking and totally clunky. The only slight issue is that the canvas is very rigid and it makes them harder to put on chubbier feet (as opposed to the regular canvas slip-on vans). Once on, they dont seem to cause any trouble.

I bought these shoes for my grandson Eli. I love them! So does he. The color is great and goes with everything. He wears them all the time so they must be very comfortable. I was out with him this week, and a woman inquired about them. She thought they were so cute. This sneaker is one I will probably buy the next size for next year's school year. Highly recommend!
