Customer Reviews Vans Authentic

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.

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.

Felt too large, had to return.

I'm never buying another pair of Vans again.

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!

Not as comfortable as other vans

Nice shoe, half size small.

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

great sneaks but run large. The white color is more of a cream color so if your looking for a true white - this is not it.

Love the shoe can stand up all day in the for work

I love the style, but have to return. These shoes are clearly sized for men. I wear 9.5 women's. Men's 8 / Women's 9.5 was too small. Men's 8.5 / Women's 10 was somewhat too long (but doable) but way too wide. This is very disappointing. If they made women's sizes I'd buy like three pairs.

Very cute but they're heavy and a little clunky on my feet. Fine for weekends around town but I wouldn't count on them for all day walking.

good shoes for a good price.. not the worlds greatest shoes but for a non leather upper, they last a while

I love the style of Vans lace-ups but they are just not comfortable. I have and love their slip on sneakers but I just find these lace-up styles so uncomfortable. I have plantar faciitis and these are too flat and have too little support to wear without an insert but if you add an insert, the back of the shoe rubs against my heel in a way that is unbearable. I will stick to what works for me from Vans- slip ons.

Love the look but they were extremly tight and had to be returned
