Customer Reviews Vans Old Skool™ - DELETED

Great n Stylish

The silver/true white is glittery.

Great size!

These fit okay - I found them to be rather stiff - really wanted to wear w/o socks, but the back hits my leg in a weird way x but they are ADORABLE! So, I wear them with ankle socks and still think they look cute!

I have the old skool vans in a couple of colors and they are extremely comfortable. I ordered the floral pair and they are much narrower than my others. I’ll have to return them.

These are the strangest shoes. I LOVE how they look—less casual than a running shoe, perfect for not looking too girly or dressed up (I have a job where that’s actually important). They fit well—true to size, definitely. I keep wearing them and thinking I’ll get used to them, and I haven’t yet. They are incredibly hard all over: there’s no padding anywhere, no arch support. They just feel incredibly...sturdy. Well built. No give anywhere, whatsoever. They’re the kind of shoes where, if I worked on my feet, I would definitely not wear them, because everything would hurt: back, knees, ankles, feet, everything. The heels are a little bit tight and dig into my Achilles’ tendon in a way that you know would cause a blister, but I took care of it with some moleskin. They are, for me, worth the discomfort for now, as long as I am not spending the day on my feet. I don’t think they’re fully broken in yet. I’m not sure I’ll wear them enough to convince myself that they’re comfortable. I have weird feet, by the way: my left foot has nerve damage from giving birth to my son, my right ankle was broken badly in three places and surgically repaired three years ago, so more nerve damage, tendinitis in that leg that feels like shin splints, sensitive to everything, tends to swell. I am picky about shoes, and I love these but I have no idea why, because they hurt.

Great style! perfect shade of blue, got plenty of compliments. I have extremely high arches so i try not to wear them if i know i will be walking a ton. Might need to be broken in. Overall super cute and versatile. wish they made these as “pro” vans.

These were for my husband. They are just like a pair he had purchased previously, but those are completely worn through now. Those were also suede all over, whereas it looks like here they tried to cut some corners. Only the toe and the heel parts are suede now; the rest is canvas. The color is nice, though it's lighter than the pair he had previously. Overall, a great standard shoe from Vans, and a classic in a fun color!

When I saw the (All Over Checkerboard) Black/True White Vans, I had to have them. Sadly, the first day I wore them, they rubbed a spot on the back of my heel after wearing them a few hours. If you get them, wear long socks. The design is amazing though.

All-canvas model was VERY stiff out of the box, painful to wear until they broke in. Not a comfort shoe. They do look great and hold up reasonably well.

Really cute shoes, the violet color is gorgeous. They came up higher on the front of my ankle than other Vans shoes so I don't lace them up tight. It feels different, I'm not used to the feel and don't love it but kept the shoes because they're cute and comfortable if not laced up tight.

Vans always rock. Remember, this is built as a board shoe so the sole compound is very stiff.

I bought these for the pattern and look, which I ADORE. They are super cute. Fit and size were right on. The only problem I have encountered is the heel rubbed awful and I had blisters. I will have to find a way to break them in better. Still, once they get broken in, they will be just like my other Vans.

My daughter got these for high school, which includes marching band practice for her. They have been comfortable as well as stylish.

The fit and size is fine, the only problem I have is when I opened the box and look at my left shoe I seen a green stain that looked like food. I'm not sending them back cause it's not really visible unless somebody's looking very hard. I'll try and find a way to get it off.

pretty good just a tad too big

They are a great color and wear well, the only thing is after wearing them once I got a shoe bite on the back of my heel so they still need some breaking in.

Love Vans!

So cute!! Got lots of compliments!

These are super cute and stylish Vans that my wife loved them! They are true to size and she loves the colors however they are not very comfortable being on her feet all day. The Pro models or Comfycush models that have added support would remedy that, but they don't have as many color options.

My go to weekend shoe. I get so many compliments on these.

I'm normally an 8.5 and got these in an 8. They are so ridiculously cute that I'm glad I found them. They sparkle just enough in the sunshine, and are subtle enough indoors. They do rub on the pinky toe though, so that first couple of days was rough because I developed a blister. Threw some band aids on them and I was good to go.

Some vans are really comfortable and feel great and others not so much. Unfortunately these ones aren’t that great. I’m specifically referring to the orange suede ones which feel pretty stiff and really dig into the Achilles’ tendon. Vans are decent shoes just stick to the canvas ones.
