Classic Hi Tops -
Well sonny... They fit just the same as when I was a kid. Perfect for roller boarding around the old cement pond.

Excellent Selection for the Price -
I recently purchased these shoes for my fiancé. They are excellent quality and he really likes them. These shoes are wide across the toe area which is very comfortable for him. We are both pleased with this selection and the product.

Watch the size -
I accidentally ordered a size 10 when I wear a 10.5. I read below afterworlds that these shoes run about a half size too big, and it's true. I own about a dozen pairs of Vans. All of the others run pretty true to size, but these feel a half size larger.

Love the VANS!
When daughter opened this Christmas gift from her grandparents; she jumped up and downed and screamed that she REALLY wanted them. She put the shoes on and they fit perfectly. Despite her having just had an ingrown toenail removed the day before, she insisted on wearing these shoes!
And I knew they would get here in time for Christmas even though I ordered the shoes 2 days before.

Great shoes -
This is my 4th pair of these SK8 Hi shoes and I have been happy with every pair. The arch and padding are a bit thin, but the answer to that has been insoles. Turned these shoes into fantastic shoes. Highly recommended. People ask me many times, “Where did I get those shoes?" Zappos I tell them. Many people like the styling of the shoes in a sea of over-puffed shoes. The shipping cannot be beat. I ordered the night before and by lunch the next day I had them.

If you skate and hate the moon boot look and feel of other skate shoes, and you also value a slim shoe with a good vulcanized sole, this shoe is great for you. In my opinion, the best skate shoe ever. No matter what you skate; street, park, vert, pool, longboard, or old school, this shoe is great for you

Color was a bit off. Looks more purplish online (which is what I was hoping for), but is a nice, deep red with a touch of purple IRL. Size ran a little big, so I’m gonna exchange them, but the color wasn’t what I expected.

The shoes weren't what I expected, but they were nice nonetheless! The first time I wore them, they hurt the back of my top of my feet, but after that first time it did not. I think you have to wear thick ankle socks to stop it from hurting/get used to the pain. But it is fine now! They are an interesting pair of shoes and are unique! I received a couple of compliments.

Vans SK8-HI -
My 14 year old son had to have these shoes. I feel that they are a little tighter in width than we expected, they don't seem to be very comfy for him, but he loves them anyway. They do look cool.
Also, kind of overpriced.
I love Zappos, though! Great service, fast shipping!

Love these shoes, they look awesome and feel great. The soles are VERY flat but if you're like me and are used to wearing flat-soled sneakers like Converse, it's not a big deal!

I mean what can I say, Vans rule! I have been wearing these shoes since I was a kid and they just keep getting better. While they provide little in the support department they do make up for it with aesthetics. They are a perfect addition to any outfit that will never go out of style.

I'm really bummed at the color. The Port Royal really looks purple on Zappos, but if you look at it on Vans.com, you can see it's burgundy (on the same monitor). Of course, I didn't do this until after I received what seemed to be the wrong color. I can't even see how this could be the right shoe they have pictured for this color.

I grew up wearing Vans back in the 80s and recently purchased a pair after more than 20 years. I know now why I stopped wearing them, they are uncomfortable if you have wide feet. They look awesome and are made well, but based on comfort or lack there of, this will definitely be the last pair I buy. Zappos Rocks though!

VERY BIG DISAPPOINTMENT! They are very hard to get on, I almost broke my ankle trying. Looks way, way better online than in person.

If you’re an orange fan you’ll dig these! Nice burnt orange color! Wasn’t sure about the sherpa but it’s actually a nice twist from the normal version. Def a keeper!

I have only had these shoes for a couple of weeks, but I have already gotten so many compliments! The green color is unique, and adds a nice pop of color. The shoes are very comfortable, but since i have a narrow foot, they are wide for me. Overall, i would recommend this style!
