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.

For an inexpensive tennie this is a great pick! True fit and cute style.

I have been ordering 11.5 for years yet my latest shoes ordered are 1/2 size smaller ! They must have changed the mold

Overall, I like the simple, classic look of these shoes. But, they're HEAVY! I mean, clonkers really. And unfortunately, they're not terribly cushioned. I'm often standing around waiting for my kids' games to start and I life to walk around when I have time, but not with these shoes. These are strictly for go there, hang and come back" activities. If I know I'll be walking, I have to wear something more comfortable.

I like them but fit a little big. Needed some tennis shoes to kick around in.

The only issue was 1 shoe had 4 eyelets and the other had 5. The way my daughter does her laces, she needed 5. Her last Vans had 5.

Great shoe - but color & size are off. My son picked these out for school and he wears Vans all the time. He picked Navy, but when they arrived, it was more of a light blue (just a shade darker than a powder blue) and they were a bit tight. He thought maybe I ordered a woman's shoe - but it is labeled unisex.

These shoes felt very stiff and uncomfortable even when I ordered a size up to ensure they wouldn’t be too tight of a fit.

Cute and almost comfortable - but the seam across the end of the laces (where the tongue starts) dug into the top of my (slightly wide) foot. It's a shame, because the toe box actually is wide enough, the seam just isn't. Returning.

Fit was fine and surprisingly comfortable - what looks to be a flat sneaker has decent cushioning in the footbed. Weirdly my pair came with one shoe lace. Not sure how to request the second one be sent.

Great style, but really uncomfortable with high arches and wide feet. May have been more comfortable a size up, but the thick soles are already a little blocky and I was afraid they'd look clownish on my feet. Stylish, but not for me due to the shape and needs of my feet.

I am always a true women's size 6, but when looking at the size conversions it just didn't seem right especially when compared to my Converse that are boys size 3. The size chart told me to get a 4.5 and I thought that was going to be too big so I took a gamble and ordered a size 4. They fit with a little room. Would have liked to have compared them to the 3.5, but I just decided to send them back.

The top edges of the shoe (towards the front) rub against my foot, leaving sore red marks. I'm hoping the second time I wear them it will be better. Other than that, they are as they seem!

It’s a nice shoe, runs half a size small though. Also not a lot of up/down toe room.
