Been a fan of these shoes for as long as I can remember. Love the style of them and they never seem to get old to me. Whenever one pair wears out, I always have to get a new pair.

First time buyer, they are comfortable wide enough for my big size 15 feet.

Love these shoes. Classic skater/surfer look. Construction feels solid and durable. If you want more comfort over style, I would recommend Van's Chukka low, they have a padded tongue and still look sick.
I'd also recommend:

I wouldn't buy this shoe unless you're a skater. It feels floppy and it makes a terrible floppy noise coming from the sides when I walk.

i was so happy i found what i thought was the same white leather vans that i had a few years back but they were not like i thought they would be the style is great but they rub the back of my ankles and sides of my feet where my bone is and gave me a blister. im so dissapointed unfortunately i cannot return i wore them twice out and about thinking that they might need broken in a little bit and even loosened up the shoestrings to see if it would help but nope . I guess its just somethin about the leather i own several pairs of vans and these are the only ones i cannot wear .

Well.... if I were looking for grey which I wasn't. They would be perfect. According to the picture the shoes look beige and cream color. I took them out of the box and they look grey.

They are very pretty but I can't say they're the comfiest pair ever. They pinched the back of my feet through the socks and I had to bandage up that friction point in order to walk in these without hurting myself.

Just not impressed with the shoe style. They're okay but I wouldn't recommend them or buy them again.

Correct order but the shoes were bent out of shape in the box. I am not sure how, maybe bad placement inside the box.

They run a bit small so if ordering get a half size bigger.

I was shocked that the entire sneaker wasn't suede. My other are. I'll keep them but very disappointing

I usually go for the classic slip on, and have had one pair of authentics, but really wanted to try the old skools. Upon first test I thought they're very stiff but so were my last slip on and those broke in just fine. Fast forward to the end of the day and my heel was being rubbed raw by these old skools! I haven't decided if I'm willing to stick through the pain and hope they break in or see if I can exchange for an authentics. (All other vans I've had may have been stiff but were never painful to wear).

Do you make the old skool corduroy in men's 10.5 or 11? Seems like it's always out of stock. - Matt

It would have been nice to give these a real go, but I was disappointed opening the box as the paper was yellowed and so were the shoes (see photos). The only thing I did to the photos was brighten them. Such a bummer.

The issue for me was the pictures on the shoes, some of them are faded and its difficult to see them or read. Online you can see the characters clearly but when you get the shoes pictures are faded and I didn't like that at all, i couldn't even see the writing of mohana means family, so upsetting , dissatisfied and disappointing

This is the first time I've gotten a pair that weren't perfect! The sizing was off- I love the design- I want a pair that fits perfectly like my other 25 pair!

Bought where shoes for my wife. When they arrived they were way too big for her. I tried them on and they fit me!! She wears a w8.5 and me m8.5. These were definitely men's 8.5 marked as women's. Can't reorder because now they're sold out.

i love this classic shoe, but just because I ordered online and not in store does not mean that they shouldn't be laced up. The entire pair.
