I wanted a second pair of white vans because I love them, but the ones I received today look a little different from each other. The right shoe seems wider and the lining on the toe box is different than the left shoe. It was very noticeable when I tried them on.

They are definitely cute shoes, always loved Vans but this ones are the ones that will make you use a band aid because will hurt the back of your toes, even with socks

fit was okay, but the fabric tore *very easily.* several holes in the shoes, within a few weeks. Vans used to last me a few months.

I work at a library. Nice shoes, I love old skools but the leather makes them squeaky and loud. This is not helpful to me . Can't contact support.

I really like the look of the shoes but they came out of the box with small stains on them and defects in the rubber soles that have caused small discolorations on them. I got a pair for myself and my wife and both had similar issues.

It’s absurd how LONG the laces are on these shoes. Vans’s excuse is because they needed one size lace to fit every range of shoe sizes. This is total BS. Why can’t they at least have 2 sizes of lace — normal size for 99% of customers and the LONG ones for Shaq and Bigfoot. For this you get 2 stars.

Love the look of the Old Skool Van's but very uncomfortable and seem to be made for wider, flatter feet. Could feel the tread pattern through the insoles and insoles could not be removed to be replaced. Very dissappointing.

Shoe tounge is shorter in the right shoe. Leather pieces are uneven between the two shoes which make the very uncomfortable.

I bought these vans because I wanted all black but when I received them there is a crease down both sides on the top where the laces go that are white and it's noticeable and doesn't look like it belongs. The sneakers themselves are comfortable but I don't like the look.

I use this product to wear on my day to day. The shoe was fine for the first part of my first day wearing it. After a few hours of wearing it I felt the insole of the shoe form a hard ballin the insole of the shoe. This made it very uncomfortable and I have to return it for a refund.

I love the look of these, I own other pairs of vans, but I just can't get the sizing right. I'm an 8 in other brands but can range between a 7, 7.5, or 8 in Vans, depending on the style. I also find the simplicity of the shoe stiff, uncomfortable, and too narrow. Out of frustration, I decided to return instead of exchange, because even with a bigger size, I think they still would be too stiff and uncomfortable.

The shoes were great at first until holes started forming at the corners of the toe cap where the stiching meets the soles, then the side of one ripped open along the length of the shoe. The sole has held up well even though I use them for lifting though.

the sizing on Van shoes is weird. I have a pair of sketchers 10.5 wide, Nikes 11, and they fit perfectly for being size 11. but these shoes feel like they are 10 even though they said 11. Guess different company do foot size differently. If I was going to buy van shoes again I would always go one size up from now on.
