Customer Reviews Vans Authentic

Canvas edging chaffs ankle - padding needed.

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.

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.

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.

Had trouble getting foot into it.

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.

Good quality

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

right shoe was too tight , left shoe fit nicely...like the pair I had before. I am returning these, but, will reorder and hope for better luck this time

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 would recommend getting a size up if you have wide feet

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

Cute! I returned though because I decided all white wasn’t for me.

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.
