    The Vans Rata is the perfect summer shoe. I've always felt it’s like wearing a slipper that is acceptable out in public. Whether you’re skating down to the store or escorting your lady to a wedding, the Rata doesn't buckle. Thanks again, Vans, for another win.

    These shoes (in the dachshund brown) are the most ridics comfy shoes I've ever owned. I have bony feet and feel pressure points in everything. Not these. I forget I'm wearing them all the time. Sleek and supple as a sexy seal too. Worth buying x 2. (Waterproof/stainproof the suede ASAP.)

    These shoes are great! They formed to my foot within a day. They're soft and go well casual or dressed up. The suede ones are really nice too. They fit true to size.

    My 17 year old son really likes these shoes. They are as comfortable as his other Vans, but a little dressier. Nice materials, well made!

    I bought these for my son for Christmas and he absolutely loves them. The fit was perfect and the shoe is very lightweight and comfortable. They arrived quickly.

    Pretty decent beach shoes, not a lot of arch support and definitely thin material. For those with slightly wider feet, this might feel a little tight.

    These shoes are very stylish and comfortable. I've gotten compliments on them. They're a little low, so I have to fold the bottom of my jeans up once so that they don't touch the ground. They look awesome with shorts, too.

    Really comfortable. You can wear it with or without socks, though I did start to get a blister without socks. The foam insert is super comfy. Not a whole lot of arch support, but it hasn't given me any problems. Also, if you think your feet aren't quite done growing yet you may want to go up a half size because it's slightly smaller than marked. Overall, a very good value.

    These shoes are very comfortable with or without socks. The insoles included with the shoes are nice and soft, but depending on how much wear and tear you put them through, they may need replacement (which is simple). Overall, the shoes look very stylish with shorts or pants and can be made to look casual or a little dressier. Great shoes.

    This is my second pair of these babies, they are so comfortable! They smell a little because I do not wear socks with them, but they are still excellent shoes! They are at an awesome price! These are definitely a must have!

    I really like these shoes but I had a bit of trouble estimating my size. I'm a women's 6 so I bought the boy's 4, they were entirely too small but I was able to exchange them for a 4.5 with no problems because Zappos is great like that. They're kind of stiff now but they've slowly begun to relax and take the shape of my foot. No complaints really.

    I bought these in Khaki for my boyfriend 3 months ago and he loves them. He's worn them literally every day since then and they're still in good shape. People are always telling him how cool they are. Comfortable, durable (so far), stylish, and versatile. Love these shoes. Buy them.

    I bought these to wear without socks. At first they are kind of rough and gave me blisters, but after a week or so and tying them looser, they worked. Great shoes, great low profile look. Buy them.
