My son loves these shoes. He always buys the authentics, just in different colors. However, these ones are 1/2 size too big.

The width was barely wide enough, but the next larger size was too big, so they have to be "broken in."
I love the shoes. I just wish they came in more than one width.

I have a pair of the same shoes from less than a year ago. Bought a new replacement pair in the same size. They are visibly smaller and do not fit.

Did not have padded collar and tongue so too hard to slip on and off. Returned them.

I wear these shoes everywhere they are very comfortably and hold up really well.

Looks like a nice quality white sneaker, but lacks comfort. Extremely stiff around the back of the ankle and even after a few weeks of wear, doesn’t seem any more comfortable. Probably better options in terms of comfort.

I just wish I knew before hand somehow that size difference mattered these aren't big enough and still need to send back haven't had the time though. But their very nice and clean shoes I love them otherwise.

They go with everything, and you will want to wear them all the time, but the lack of comfort is an issue. Little arch support and the canvas is very stiff, making them hard to wear for long periods of time. Probably better options for an all white sneaker.

Fit seems okay. Only lasted about 6 months so factor that in. Also, the inside of the shoes started to fall apart very quickly. Within a couple months of wearing them, some sort of adhesive they used on the inside started to fall apart and form little balls that I had to shake out every few hours. Weird and unpleasant. Love the look but doubt I will buy Vans again.

I don’t like how these fit around the heel. No padding at all, and causes no-show socks to constantly slip down your heel.

Unfortunately had to refund because it's not true to size, they run small. Next time I have to choose a size Up from regular show size.

I really liked these shoes. My one issue though was that you can’t wear regular low cut socks without them looking funny and seeing a lot of the sock. I wanted these as an everyday go to shoe so having to wear no show socks or no socks anytime I wore these was a deal for me.

So disappointed. I love the look of the Vans sneakers and I was hoping the medium width would fit, but not so especially if you have bunions!
I wish Vans would make them in wide width they were exactly what I have been looking for. Sadly, I am returning them.

I have been buying Vans Grey Lo Pro for years. Apparently they are discontinued so I bought these instead. They are MUCH heavier, have a wide bottom rubber part and aren't near as great as the Lo Pro. Please bring the Lo Pro back.

Way too big. I normally wear a size 11.5, and with these I probably should have ordered a 10. Tongue is tiny and so low -- lower than any other shoe I've ever worn -- that you can only wear ultra low socks, more like women's flat liners. Comfort-wise the shoe is basic. Compliments for style.
