I’m heartbroken - I have worn this shoe for years and the fit is completely off! It’s as if they made it a bit longer and there is more fabric at front of foot. I think going down 1/2 size would be too small. Crushed!

Fit well in length but is is to wide for my feet. The sole is too thick and the shoes did not feel comfortable or elegant.

One of the shoes had a yellow stain on them. This is obviously a problem seeing as the shoes are supposed to be all white so needless to say I am disappointed. I am directly referencing this product.

I have many of these pairs. I bought two pairs this day and one fits perfect while other is very snug.

I love how these look but oh my goodness, I don't understand how people wear these! I have a few pair of Vans and I've never had this issue. These tear up my feet

I bought the old skool vans in size 7 men's (8.5 in women's) I got them today and tried to get my foot in and they are way too small. I have slender feet and have been measured in shoe stores multiple times, and I'm always a 7 in men's / 8.5 women's. I typically wear men's shoes and haven't had an issue with size until now. I held the old skool up to a pair of my Nike running shoes and they are significantly smaller. I understand that not all shoes have the same sizing and sometimes I get shoes that are little bit tight or snug in the toes depending on brand. But this is a hole size and half difference and I can't even squeeze my feet in. Sometimes if a shoe is snug I wear them until they stretch a bit and they work out but this isn't even possible. I was hoping to have the new shoes before a trip I have planned this weekend and paid for the extra shipping to be here in time. I'm really disappointed and wish that the sizing was a little more accurate. The shoe is literally the equivalent to a 7 women's cause my daughter wears that size. I double checked to make sure it wasn't 7 women's by mistake but it says 7 men's 8.5 women's US.

Photos are extremely deceptive, these shoes are extremely yellow in direct sunlight and in shade. The build quality on the pair I received was pretty bad on top of feeling like I was misled.

Fit, size, all good. Love the new white Zans....but, washed them w/mild detergent & soft brush, they looked great wet, but after drying they have ugly brown/yellowish stains as if some material from the inside has bled through. Please tell me there is a way to cure this.

Bought these for my son, who walks a lot. Arrived in November, by March there was a hole in the side. Maybe they'd last longer if they weren't worn every day. They look and fit fine but not impressed with their wearability.

When I put the vans on they seemed to fit but they gave me an awful heel blister so I have not been able to wear them. I have not gotten Vans before but I thought they were very attractive with the change of season. Anyway I cannot wear them and not sure if I can return them because I wore them once. thanks, Leslie

I’ve been wearing Vans old schools and classics for at least 15 years. I have always been a size 12. Vans must’ve changed something because these shoes are too tight in the toe box and seem to be at least 1/2 a size smaller than they used to be.

Fit was fine but shoes are defective. I bought these shoes for my husband to wear on our wedding day in December. There’s something in the shoe that pokes up and is very uncomfortable. Unfortunately, it is too late to return the shoes. I just want everyone to be sure to check them out right away when they buy them. I’m very disappointed and don’t foresee the issue ever being resolved. You can see the shadow of the object just above the vans logo, to the left.

They look good, but this has to be the most uncomfortable shoe I've ever worn. Laced tight and my heels are still slipping. Considering dropping a half size, but then I can't use the inserts I got because the ones it comes with are not removable (contrary to the claim from a Vans representative on this page).

I have bought many of this exact item and never had a problem. This pair had bad fit and a very rough inside that gave me blisters... I think they are cheaping out the quality. Too bad.

I love the look of this shoe. It is stylish, and can be worn with both casual and formal wear. These even look great with a suit! The shoe is also very comfortable and lightweight. My only criticism is that they don't hold up well. I ordered two pairs of these shoes in May, it's now September and one pair already has a hole in the toe, and the other (which I only started wearing within the last 3 weeks) is starting to show some wear in the toe area. I am not terribly hard on my shoes, so this is disappointing. These are great if you can wear them sparingly.
