These shoes were for my son, who loves them but they are kinda narrow and difficult to get on his feet. We had to go purchase super thin socks for him to wear with them.

Blisters - These shoes will cause blisters unless you wear socks, but they are designed to be summer shoes which you do not use with socks. The sizes come small.

This kid size 12 shoe was so narrow my grandson couldn't even get half of his foot into it. He wears lots of other size 12 shoes. The length was comparable to other size 12 shoes, just way way too narrow. So sad because he wanted a pair like his dad's.

I bought these shoes (size 1.5 & 2) for my two youngest and their foot would not go into the shoes because of how narrow they were #sweepstakes

Literally could not get the shoe on the kids foot. When I returned in store was told this is a common problem with the preschool slip ons. Y'all gotta make these wider.

After enjoying these in toddler sizes, so sad to size up and find LO can no longer get his foot into them. Love the slip ons and will try again in the future.

These run small so probably get a bigger size but they are pretty super cute

I loved these shoes when I was a kid. I bought a pair for my grandson and they didn't last a month. They came unglued on both sides and at the toe. Very disappointed.

Like many other reviews, that I failed to read before purchasing, these were extremely tight in my 5 year old’s regular vans size (we usually purchase the high tops). Returned.

Bought these so my daughter could slip them on by herself, but the heel opening is so stiff and tight I have to jam her foot in. Not practical

I used the guide for these shoes, I needed these for a photo shoot and they were to tight and hurt her feet. I recommend sizing up!

Super cute shoe but my daughter wore them twice and the glitter has come off in several spots. I feel like a few more wears and most of the glitter will be gone. She's super disappointed

My kids only wore them once and I got them in the correct size, a half size bigger, but they are too small. Made a sore on one of my twins heels. I don't even know what size I should've gotten. Why isn't the scale accurate? I bought them as a gift and by the time they actually wore them, it was too late to return. Waste of money.

Vans needs to realize that the sole to top of foot space is way too narrow for most young kids feet. My son was so disappointed that he couldn't get his new shoes on he was so looking forward to having. I can size up, but then they'll be too big length wise.

We had 4 other pairs of these in smaller sizes. This last time I bought one size 10.5 and the other one is 11. They are too tight for my son. The smaller ones had the side velcro thing on them too and these do not. I'm not sure if that has anything to do with them being too tight. Please make them wider because these were moms favorite. I don't think the kiddo cares too much what he wears as long as it's comfortable.

These are the entirely too tight to fit my sons foot. I should have sized up. I have already threw the boxes away as he was so excited, sadly waited to try on

Bought a size 12 and could barely get my son's foot in the shoe. They run super narrow, and he was not comfortable. Took them into a vans store and exchanged for a Velcro version of a high top which was much easier to get on and off. The shoe is adorable, maybe would work if you sized up or if kid has really narrow feet.

Bought size 2.5 for my 8-year-old daughter. Cool flames and tiger head graphics. Super small tho - kid couldn't even get her foot inside. She has a typical 2-2.5 foot. I should have taken the other reviews to heart but I ordered anyway. Quick and easy return. No hassle. Next time we'll try on in person.

Just like every other review - the opening on this shoe is way too tight. The opening needs to be redesigned to accommodate for kids that don’t care how cool the shoe looks if it hurts trying to pull them on. I wish there was either a wide or a Velcro tab option like the toddler version of this shoe.
I'd also recommend:

I ordered these as we love the sparkles. I thought it would be more tan/beige, but is very yellow. We love the sparkles, but not the accompanying yellow.

We've been having this issue with Vans that the length is fine but my the opening is too small for my children to slip their feet into. My kids are low end of the growth chart so it's a shoe issue :)
