Fits good but the "white" checkered is actually like a cream color not a real white. Super bummed.

The shoes themselves are fine, I've had a pair before so I know they're great. However, this order arrived looking like someone wore the shoes (dirty) and they weren't what I ordered (I ordered classic tumble, got true white instead).

I've owned many pairs in the past but the recent pair I've ordered is painfully tight in one foot. I have a bad habit of ordering new shoes and putting them away for a later date so now Vans won't help me since it's been over 30 days even though the shoes are still new.

These are cute, but not for flat feet. Arch support was too hard, and hurt. They also hit a little high and rubbed my ankle bone.

Shoes didn't really fit even after a bigger size

I have a lot of vans and well....these just didn't cut it in the comfort department. The left was stitched weirdly on the inside and left a very uncomfortable feeling. Figured I just needed to break them in but it was just poor craftsmanship and sadly just not comfortable.

When they say Sherpa lined they really means small decoration Sherpa piece on heel. These are not actually Sherpa lined like the description, so they aren't really great for cold/winter.

This model gets dirty easily and tends to stain after drying when washed. I bought them less than a year ago to go to university, they are comfortable but the fabric of the shoe has become watery and the edges are taking off.

Purchased this shoe for my husband in a size 9.5 to wear on our upcoming cruise trip. Big disappointment, he can't even get his foot into the shoe, it runs a whole size smaller than expected. Also, I did not realize they were cloth and not leather., ew....don't judge me! Needless to say I will be returning these.

Overall the shoes are cute and go with everything so it's a nice shoe to have. HOWEVER, I've had them for over a year now and they stillll give me blisters on my heels everytime I wear them. Not worth it. They haven't worn out at all but they're all white so they do get dirty easily obviously but not hard to clean.

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.
