I needed shoes to use for flat pedal mountain biking. Unfortunately I wear a 15 so bike specific shoes were all too small. These are exactly what I expected. Black on black so they won't show dirt as bad, and the flat sole that sticks to my pedal posts. I would still like to try five-tens if they ever decide to make a 15, but these work a lot better than running shoes in the meantime.

Haven't worn these shoes in over 10 years. I remembered loving them, but I completely forgot about the blisters! A simple lift insert from amazon did the trick, guess the back of my heel rubs on these in a weird place. Once I raised up my heel, problem solved. They are very comfortable, but I still wouldn't wear them to walk long distances, just for casual hanging out. I like the black on black because I can get away with that at work.

Bought this pair in black for my daughter who has wide feet. She said they felt snug at first bur did not give her pain and eventually stretched out.

I ?? My Vans! I've literally worn them everyday since I've received them. I saw Kendall Jenner wearing a pair. I love how she style them, so effortless and cool. I've worn them with denim shorts, cropped flared jeans, black mini dress with a leather jacket. I also work them with a metallic pleated skirt & a concert tee tucked in with a oversized denim jacket. The possibilities are endless. There so comfortable and a easy choice.

This is my second pair of the Old Skools. I've tried a lot of brands but these are easily my favorite shoe. They're comfortable and always in style.

Very comfortable shoes! I don't skate but these are great every day shoes. Very durable and grip well. However, if you have narrow feet they might be wide on you. I have slightly wider than average feet and these feel great. They also stretch a bit with wear. A simple but very cool classic shoe.

You can't go wrong with this classic look. Growing up, I had these in every color. They're nice and comfy, and I hope they never stop making them. I'll keep buying them until I'm too old to wear stylish things.

Love these! I have officially become a Vans fan. My feet are a little on the wider side and Vans allow for that so I don't have to have a longer shoe to make the width work. Going to start a new collection!

I actually bought 3 pairs for my kids (different colors of course). They absolutely love these shoes. Nice looking casual shoe for school.

My feet are so happy. These are cute and comfortable! The toe box is suede and the ankle area is padded, which is much more than I expected from a shoe at this price point. Love, love, love them!

I've worn an 8.5 in Vans for as long as I can remember, but had to go with a 9 in these. They fit perfectly after I threw some insoles in.

Super comfortable, great kick around shoes. These do not offer the same support & function as athletic shoes but they've got style! :)

It was good to know that Vans sizing carries over from one model of their shoes to the next. These were a nice upgrade from the other model I had bought, with more padding on the tongue and around the ankle. Hope they will hold up well, because I really like these shoes!
