When I first tried them on, I noticed that the leather inside the shoe just inside the mouth pinched the skin around my tendons. It stung for a couple of days. Now, I don't know if I developed callouses quickly or the leather just became soft, but all I know is that the pain went way. This is a mighty fine shoe. I just wanted to point out that minor flaw.

This shoe was a requested gift. Have been wearing Vans for a long time. Great classic shoe, comfortable. Like the understated black on black.

I purchased these for work and had bought Vans previously for the same purpose. I am a long time fan of Vans products. That being said, this pair of shoes had several holes in them withing 3.5 months of getting them. Work shoes usually last me 12-16 months and my work habits have not changed at all. I was disappointed in the quality of the product

These shoes have gotten me quite a few comments and looks from people. They have that classic cool factor, they feel comfortable for the most part, and seemed to have more cushioning than the Converse I tried before.

I've been wearing these shoes for performing (professional musician/drummer) for more than 10 years. I buy a couple of pairs every few years and they handle my rigorous playing and touring schedule! I love these shoes. Zappos' service rocks!

Hurt like hell. I bought these shoes and loved them immediately. I put them on and they were a perfect fit. Everything was fine until I went out. About an hour after putting them on, they started to hurt like hell. My feet were bleeding from these shoes. There is hardly any support in these shoes. It only took about an hour for my feet to start hurting. Insoles didn't work. These shoes look great, but are poorly made. Don't hurt your feet for these shoes.

True size! Comfy ! Walkable ! Compared to slip ones and high tops Vans this ones beat them! They are wide on top so won’t squeeze your feet and the bottom actually feels good! I’m impressed ! :)

Purchased the black pair, really nice low key shoes with a classic look and feel that you can expect from Vans. I would completely recommend these! Once they're worn in, they feel so good. Thank you Zappos!

Shoes are good. Last long with moderate use, I wear them everyday but not all day. Super comfortable but tend to hurt the pads of your feet if you take them for long walks. All in all, Classic Venice gear, super comfy. Love them.

Classic look, classic wear. Not the most comfortable shoe at first, but it molds to your feet, and certainly delivers style and durability for both the skater and the poser.

This is the 3rd pair I've purchased for my grandson. It's hard to find shoes in size 15 that he'll actually wear! There's not much arch support so I bought inserts which made them more comfy when standing long hours at work.

I am wearing the vans right and they are so comfortable no comfy cush but if you have a good amount of space that's not tight in your shoe you will be walking like Jesus.

Such a great looking classic shoe. Vans have been my go-to skate shoe for years, not only do they look great, but they feel great.

Bruh...wear these and you’ll be dating 16 year old girls that hang at the skatepark passed their curfew in NO TIME. Who said life in your 40’s had to be so midlife crisis-y? Throw these on, get yourself a dad cruiser board, maybe a guitar to distract them for your aging grey face, then boom, you’ll be sliding in the box in no time.

I got these shoes for my nephew for Christmas and he loves them. I've been getting him Vans for a few years and I'm impressed on how well these shoes take a beating. Thanks for great service and prompt delivery. I love Zappos!
