I thought these were the same construction as the Skate Old Skools. They most definitely are not. These don't have the same cushion, sole, etc. They look great. I don't think they are a bad shoe - not at all. I just like the extra midsole height on the Skates and the extra cushion in the insole on the Skates. These Old Skools feel a bit more flimsy like a Chuck whereas the Skate Old Skools feel more substantial, more like a shoe. Again, these aren't a bad shoe at all - its all personal preference.
Size and fit are as described. No issues there. Construction was on point for Vans - always a good product. Color and material look just like the pics.

I am sorry to say, the shoe feels very flat with no arch!

The fit and size were on point, however, it just didn't look good on my feet. Not sure what it was...it did not scream "MUST HAVE" so I returned them.

They aren't as comfortable as some other "skate" shoes I buy. They are very stiff. I buy a lot of DCs and they are way more comfortable than the Vans. But I do like the way they look.

These shoes have a great look to them but are really uncomfortable. Been trying to break them in but my ankles are killing me. Not sure if they are gonna work they hurt so bad.

The shoes are gorgeous but rather stiff and the size was bigger than others I order in the same size.

Love the shoe but they are cut small. So go up a half size

The fit was fine, and I like the style. However, the backs of my ankles were bleeding within two hours of wearing these shoes—and I barely walked. I ended up donating the shoes to Goodwill.

I ordered the orange ones and was so excited because the color would have been so cute for fall but I received the wrong color! Very disappointed will be returning.

These just weren't comfortable, they felt like cardboard. Great color but uncomfortably $$. Meh

The description should have said the material is slightly sparkly. I didn't want that look so am returning them.

A little snug until they got a little worn in. Still rubs the back of my foot if I dont wear a thicker sock.

One shoe was a totally different size than the other. Label says they are the same, but they are not. Returning. First time this has happened with a pair of vans for me and I’ve owned a lot of different pairs

I liked the color but there is zero arch support and my feet ached pretty quickly just wearing them around the house. It could work with an insert.

I wear vans daily. The color on the upper was just as expected. The problem is that the sole is not white. It is a creamy white as if it has yellowed. That is why I’m returning them.

This is my 5th pair of Old Skool Vans. I absolutely LOVE them. I teach 2nd grade, so I'm on my feet all day. My legs are not killing me at the end of the day. This particular pair was just a little too big. I was so surprised. I'm going to reorder the same size in hopes that I just got a fluke of a pair. The red pair is probably my fave with the light pink as the runner up. Well..... I just received the cheetah print, so it's a close race now.

Keen, Clarks, Ugg, Dansko, Sanita
