This shoe is the best and I got it in two days thanks to Zappos. Can I really appreciate the effort the store put into getting this product to me? Thank you very much.

GREAT SHOES! But this color is NOT NAVY blue! It is more Royal Blue or Aqua-ish...kind of a girlish color for me.

I love these shoes and get compliments on them all the time. I've ordered about 5 pairs of vans of Zappos and can't stress how fast and reliable this site is, good work! One thing to note with Vans, I wear them without socks which is a cooler look, but wearing them for long periods of time walking around a city and out at night your feet could hurt at the end. Other than that it's a great shoe and a great buy. I don't typically wear them for that long so I give it max stars all the way!

Perfect and ultra fast delivery (3 days). Ordered from Canada and picked it up in the states when I went to visit family the following week. Exactly what I wanted and what I expected. I wish they had a canadian Zappos or ship to Canada because I really would like to be buying from this cite in the future as a go-to cite for my shoe purchases.

These shoes are still in my life after a hard year of use. There isn't much left to them but they did their work and I'm happy to replace them with the exact same shoe. Great if you have a wide foot and for a flat, I was fine in them all day long, lots of walking and climbing. I love my Vans.

These shoes are stylish and comfortable. I wear them with and without socks, and in both cases, my feet feel great.

Great canvas shoes which were a lot more comfortable than I expected. Use these on the weekends in Manhattan walking all day with no issues. The tongue does not come up as high as other brands (Sperry, etc.) which makes style a little different but I like it. Good sole and construction.

I love these shoes which are my first pair of Vans. I got a lot of complements the first time I wore them. I wasn't sold on wearing shoes without socks but thought I would give it a try. They are super comfortable and cute. I'm planning to get few more pairs in different colors. As always, Zappos shipped quickly and I had them to wear the next day.

Couldn't have been happier with the order process and with the product! Vans, I think fit true to size and are a great classic shoe.

I love these shoes! They are so cute and so comfortable. I was very impressed with the free shipping, it was super fast. I ordered these shoes on a Sunday evening and I recieved them the next day. I will definitely be buying shoes at Zappos again!

I love them! My only issue is that one day I was running late so I just slid them on and stepped on the heel, and now the heel is dented. Also they are a bit wider than I expected. But they are still a good buy!

These are very basic casual sneakers. They are comfortable and do not stretch out too much after they are broken in. The heel might leave blisters initially, but it softens up once they are worn for a little while. I have gotten a few pairs of these and they are a good choice.

Zappos service was great! I actually returned about 3 other pairs of shoes before I found these that fit! I just ordered another pair in a different color! Thanks!

My daughter loves these shoes. They're very cute on her and a great neutral color. She needs more arch support than they give so she wears an orthotic in them.

Bought these for my brother, but I own about 6 pairs of these myself. The ultimate plimsoll, edgy skater feel plus casual cool and you can't get find a better shoe under 50 bucks (if you want to get away from that Converse Chuck Taylor look). Comfy soles, easy to slip, great colors/styles to choose from. A must buy!

Just received the blue ones in the mail. I absolutely love Vans. They are so comfortable. Zappos is the best site. I order them Sunday and received them today. Which is Tuesday. Thank you Zappos.

This is the 3rd time my son got these shoes, he likes to have several colors. He says they are comfortable and he skateboards better in them.

Though the Vans Authentics are certainly worthy of the praises given in many of these reviews, I'm surprised to find that the only person who bothered mentioning this model's attributes as a skate shoe was a mother of three. I guess people in California make a living out of looking like they might, at any moment, elect to shred the gnar while looking superbly hip. These shoes, having no padding to speak of, usually feel about a half size larger. While the ollie pad is prone to utter destruction, a little duct tape from the inside out and the nigh-indestructible vulcanized soles make this more than manageable. Take care of these puppies properly and you can skate these longer than almost any modern skate shoe.

Check out Frye. They make a mean cavalry boot.

These shoes are fresh, fashionable, and they give you a very good noticeable look! You want to make sure that you pick the right size just because they do not stretch. Overall they grow to be very comfortable after you've worn a couple times. Best of all they are very easy to clean by hand or using a washer. Make sure not to dry them; that may turn white part yellow.

Took a few days to break into, but now they are extremely comfortable. A great shoe for the hot Atlanta days.
