The design is wonderful, my son picked these out & was so excited to get them, however even ordering a size up, we would not even get them onto his feet. They are narrow and too small. He wears size 11 and we ordered size 12. They run extremely small (or at least this pair did?) so keep that in mind when ordering.

These shoes are beautiful and seem comfortable, but they are very small and difficult to put on your feet. My son loved the shoes, but we couldn't wear them. I requested a return and later I will test a model with laces or velcro, perhaps they will be easier to wear.

Unfortunately, these aren't holding up well at all. Our 4 year old has been wearing them off an on for just a few days and the black rubber trim has worn down significantly already. The blue and white fabric is still clean so it hasn't been hard wear. Surprising because his Van's have always held up well before. Shipping was very quick though.

When you order online they will not cancel or adjust the order. I tried to change the shoe size 1 hour after ordering but they will only allow a return after receiving the order. In my opinion, that policy sucks.

My grandson was in love with these shoes and of course, I had to get them for him to wear on his first ever day of school. They are far too narrow for his size 12 child average size foot that has fit into all other size 12 shoes. If you have a child with a normal to wide foot, avoid or be prepared to manually stretch them out. Mine was super disappointed

Impossible to put on. My son is only 4 so still has "preschooler feet", but is now in a size 11. He has worn this style of shoes since he was 2, but the "Little Kid" sizes don't have the velcro/elastic and are more like the adult ones. Impossible to put my son's feet in those, as the opening is too small for his thick preschooler fit. Vans should make the velcro ones for the "Little Kid" sizes too.

My 9 yo wears vans slip ons exclusively. This is probably his 6th pair in a row, by far the least durable. Print has mostly faded after 2 months. Elastic is tearing. Sole is de-laminating. Maybe I got a poorly made pair.

I have always bought my kids vans and they fit great. All of the sudden, the past two pairs I have bought are wayyy too narrow. Cannot get either of my kids foot in them. The design is clearly different. They still look cute though!

I got these for my son. He's a toddler size 10 in every other pair of shoes he owns. I had to get a 12 in these for them to fit him. Definitely size up!

My daughter loved these shoes but we were disappointed because the rainbow glitter fell off after one use!

I like these slip on shoes but the size chart is inaccurate!!! My son is a size 1.5 in every brand shoe so I ordered him a 1.5 online and they were way too small so I went up to a size 2, even though he's not a size 2 in ANY other shoe and those didn't even fit him so I went with a different brand in a size 1.5 as now I've already sent 2 pairs of shoes back and it takes forever to get refunded as well.

My daughter has ASD and Velcro shoes suit her best. These are so cute but the glitter is rubbing off. For 60.00+ its disappointing quality wise.

Grandson has too high arch on top of feet for these so could not get on his feet at all.

My daughter has destroyed her size 2 as she wore them so much. Just got her size 2.5 and she can't get them on they're so much smaller!

Such cute shoes, very colorful, but a bit too narrow and hard to get foot in. Our son has thin feet, you need to make shoes more proportional in width, because the length is perfect.

Ordered 10.5 for daughter but it ran very small. For a normal 10.5 I probably should've ordered a size 12.

Been buying these for years and something changed. My five year old literally cannot get his foot in it and there is plenty of length. If I go up anymore the shoe will be too long. Bummed.

My daughter usually wear size 10 so I went a half size up to 10.5 and she could not slip her foot
In there at all.
It's snugged and will not fit properly.
I recommend going one size up, definitely returning these back

I used to love vans and I I found these awesome glow in the dark shoes for my boys but they are so narrow that it was difficult getting on their feet and they're too long when I finally did. So much for intentionally buying a larger size to grow into. Maybe my kids just have wide feet I don't know. So in this case I would say mail order shoes are not ideal.

My daughter loves the unicorn design and I sized up to 13 she wears 11/12 however they are too narrow because the material doesn't stretch.

Received the shoes and had to return them twice for a size up. My daughter usually wears a 10.5 but had to go up to a 12.
