I'm a size 15 and flat footed. I found these ok for daily used, but they could use more padding.

These shoes look good, but the size runs a bit on the smaller end. I should have ordered a size up.

Really cool-looking shoes. I have narrow feet, so I needed insoles. There was initially some tightness in the toe box, but they feel like they’re loosening up a bit just from wearing them around. It’s still winter, so they probably won’t get a ton of mileage til the weather breaks. In terms of style, though, they look really cool!

I? ordered a size 8 and think I? could have gone a size 7.5 women’s but the extra space works for thicker socks. They remind me of converse chuck Taylor’s with slightly more comfort. Super cute.

The shoe itself is very stylish,but i wouldn't recommend to wear them all the time. Also idk if this happened to anyone else, but the leather part of the shoe tore the back of my heels up.

These felt narrow, and did not look good on my husbands foot. They looked a lot better online.

Love these shoes so much. Have been wanting them for a while now and I'm so glad I got them. I make went camping and I brought the shoes, I walked around a lot and they were comfortable throughout my whole trip. I want another pair in a different color.

Great shoe. I have had multiple foot surgeries and have difficulty finding cool shoes that don't kill me. These shoes are a keeper! The only problem is that I now want them in every color.

I have always had vans in one form or another but i think these are my favorite. a little flat compared to an athletic shoe, but very comfortable for every day wear. And they look even better all beat up.

They look great, no doubt, but do not hold up to much skating. My son wore a hole in the upper in 3 weeks. Also he wears Superfeet orthotic inserts in them because they have no support. All his friends wear the Old Skools.

Super cute shoes. Unfortunately, the back of the shoes rubbed blisters on my ankles. I can tolerate them for short wears, but they would be too uncomfortable to wear for a long day.

Love the style, but felt a little bigger than the size I bought. Returned for half size smaller and fit great.

Great style! I had to break these in though. I got a blister on the back of my foot above the heel but after wearing it a couple more times they were perfect!

I've amassed a sizable Vans collection at this point yet it still feels like I don't have enough pairs. The classic and clean designs coupled with their various colorways truly creates endless styles. The Old Skool Core Classics are easily one of my favorites and I have a few in different colors, though the black and white piping pair being ones I wear most often. As for sizing, be sure to note that women need to convert from men's sizing as this is a unisex shoe. Also note that I find Vans to run slightly on the larger end of the spectrum, but fit preferences are subjective. I generally run between wearing 6.5-7 US women's, and for Vans I am a solid 6.5. It's a barely snug and perfect fit. I tend not to reach for my size 7 Vans as much because of the roominess that I find slightly uncomfortable.

Classic Vans! Good for general wear. Not great for standing on your feet all day.
