The shoes look cool and fit well but the description makes no mention of the nylon side panels. Interested how they will hold up compared to the canvas, suede and leather versions I've had over the years.

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.

I ordered my usual size and I feel like these fit small. They were really tight in the toe box area. I returned them. I loved the color, but disliked how the shoe felt.

Shoes are well made, heavier canvas than standard old skools. Color is not like the picture. Much lighter and more purple than shown. I had to return them because I won't wear purple shoes.

I got these to replace my Vans ComfyCush that are now discontinued. My feet were aching after just walking around my house in them. Ridiculously uncomfortable. I can stand for 8 hours in ComfyCush and I could barely manage 20 minute in these. Returning

I know this style is very popular and I was willing to try them since they were on sale. I have found them to NOT be very comfortable, because there's little padding in the insole of the shoe. The "antler" color is more of a lilac color than brown, as the picture reflects. I'm glad I did not pay full price for them.

When the shoes arrived I did not try them on immediately. When I finally tried them on, I realized that the right shoe rubbed my bunion so that it is uncomfortable to wear. I like the look and style of the shoes but cannot wear them.

I own Vans in a womens 9, and this pair is not a 9, but more like an 8 or possibly 8.5, despite being labeled a 9. Mind you, I am an 8.5, so a 9 should be roomy. My big toe was smashed into end of shoe, and you could see it poking up at end of shoe. I loved the colors of this shoe, but the fit was super off. That was very disappointing. I opted to return instead of trying a larger size.

While I love the look of these vans, especially in the beige color, the tongue of the shoe will not stay in the middle. It veers to the side and it's so annoying.

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

I primarily bought these for the rubber slow hoping they would be less slippery than other shoes. They might be however they are very heavy & make my feet hurt. I will try inserts & see if that helps the discomfort.
I'd also recommend:
Asics are most comfortable but slippery.

Great shoe. Gorgeous-looking. Unfortunately, it was ordered as a birthday present and it did not ship FOR AN ENTIRE WEEK. I was given no warning that it would take a week to ship; on the contrary, I was told delivery time was 3-5 business days.

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

Stylish? Yes! Comfortable? No! I need to wear orthotics due to pronated feet, when I use them in these shoes, they're difficult to fit my feet in.

But my daughter complained that the back of the shoe on the heel rubbed her skin raw. We will be returning these.

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

The style and suede orangish tan with brown accents looks great, however these do NOT run even close to size. I usually wear 10.5...sometimes 11 depending on the shoe manufacturer. I ordered 10.5...WAY too small. Returned and tried 11...my feet fit in, but I big toenail was hard up against the upper, and it was easy to tell that it would hurt after a short time of wearing. Of course, they don't have 11.5. Had the site mentioned they run small, I could have saved the trouble and ordered something else. The first pair was ordered during the black Friday sale...the second pair missed the sale, AND we had a pre-existing five dollar credit on the site that I used on the first pair. The shoes were returned, but we didn't get that five dollar credit back. Why?
I really wish Merrell didn't stop making the cool and comfortable shoes that fit perfectly. Nothing but tennis shoes and boots/hiking shoes now. Pity.

I love the way they look on me, definitely worth the price that they are. They are super tight so I’ll have to wear them and loosen them up. They did have a little damage on the front of the right shoe, I’ve attached a picture to show. Probably from the shipping process.

I love the antler color. The sneakers are really cute but fit is narrow. And they are difficult to put on unless you loosen the laces all the way to the bottom.

I really like the look, but to be honest, they are not the most comfortable. some foam padding (or more of it) would be nice.
