Vans SK8 - These shoes are great; they’re sturdy and high enough off the ground to not get muddy snow slush on the actual shoe. They are comfortable, a little hard but that's fine. They look great, beautiful design, people love them! I recommend them. They come in such a variety of different patterns and colors...There's one for everyone.

Love 'em - Comfortable, look nice, thought they were suede, but they were leather. However, still love 'em and decided to keep them. I have worn Vans for the last 15 years and always loved the old school look and the Hi-Tops.

My experience with Vans Sk8 Hi`s . I bought the pewter/Black checkered Vans Sk8 hi`s. I love them , the only thing wrong with them is that the first week you have em` (If you have bigger feet ) they will hurt your pinky toe a little ...Great shoes.

Cool Kicks - As usual Zappos came through with their great service and fast shipping. They are real personable and phone friendly as well. They also have a return policy that is phenomenal. These shoes are very comfortable and they look cool. Problem is that the selection is big and it’s hard to decide on what to get. I have purchased many pairs of shoes from Zappos. They continue to be my #1 website for shoes. Thanks a lot.

A True Classic - There's been at least one pair of these in my closet for 15 years. It's all about the style. They fill the same niche in the hipster wardrobe as a pair of Chuck Taylors; they're just a little beefier. The only downside is they do tend to wear quickly. Once the white parts yellow and the heel wears through, it's time for a new pair. They're cheap enough to buy a few color choices for maximum rockage.

Quite possibly, the perfect SK8er shoe... These shoes are terrific. I bought them for my skateboarding son, who finds them comfortable and tells me the "stick" factor for boarding is perfect (whatever that means...) The design with skulls is clever and cool, the interior color is classy yet edgy --- very nice shoe. Would highly recommend as they appear to be very durable, too.

VANS! I love em' I always buy vans but I think these are the hottest pair of vans that I’ve ever bought! They are so comfortable and since they're for both boys and girls I got my boyfriend a matching pair!

Black Leather vans sk8-his - These came to me very quickly, plus the shipping was free, so no complaints there. They run a little long, so I might suggest buying half a size smaller than you usually do, even for vans. I just put an insole pad, like a Dr. Scholl’s or whatever, and they wear fine. I have to say, I absolutely love these shoes. They're probably my favorite pair that I own.

Vans SK8-Hi shoes are #1 - Vans Sk8-Hi are great shoes for skateboarding. I have been wearing Vans shoes since 1978 and these shoes have the same sticky sole as the first pair I bought in '78. The shoe really holds up the abuse of skateboarding and the classic design will never go out of style.

Awesome - Bought the "expresso" brown color. Awesome. Nicer in person, since the photo shows it looking black at the toe and brown on the sides. It is all brown. Just what I wanted. These rock. Also a big fan of Chucks/Converse.

I never thought I'd leave my trusty Converse All Stars - I've always loved my Converse Chucks, but then I decided to get a thicker shoe for cold New England winters so I purchased this Vans SK8. I don't see myself going back to Chucks for a long time. First of all, my Chucks last an average of 3 months. I have had these shoes for almost a full year with very little signs of external wear (a bit of internal, though). They're also thicker and provide a lot more ankle support than Chucks do. Not to mention they look pretty good. I'd recommend 'em.

Comfortable yet stylish - Hey, where did you get those? or Those look so nice how much did you pay for them?? The questions never came to an end. These sneakers were very comfortable and stylish. I got the polka dot ones which don’t necessarily go w/ everything but I did make the best of it. The only problem w/ these is that you have to wear tube socks because if you don’t the rubber on the back chaffs your shin. A piece of tissue will ease the friction or folded down tube socks aside from that they are great and comfortable.

Great looking shoe! My son wanted these shoes after finding them on another website. He'd never purchased shoes without trying them on before and is so happy with them! Teenagers can be picky but he is thrilled with the look and fit of this style of Vans. And I'm a happy mom!

Feels Like an Old Fashioned Sneaker - These shoes are so cute, but they run big and they have no arch support. I originally ordered a 9, but I had to send them back for an 8 1/2, they were too floppy large to be comfortable. They are Unisex, and the heel area is wide (men’s shoes tend to be like that), and the bottoms are completely flat, no arch support at all. I put a cheap pair of orthotics in them and now they are perfectly comfortable. My teenage son loved them so much I bought him a pair in black, with skulls on them. Did I mention they are REALLY cute?

FANTASTIC SHOES! I bought the Gray Mist/Pink Icing - size 10 D (men’s). Thought the shoes looked terrific in the photos. When I got them I was NOT disappointed by the look. I kept my fingers crossed, while trying them on - and I wasn't disappointed then, either. I like these shoes a lot. Wore them to work - got a lot of compliments on them (the women LOVED them - none of the guys said anything...) the shoes seem to be well-made, and are comfortable. I wish they had more of a "heel" to them, but - like true, old fashioned tennis shoes - these are very "flat" soled shoes. Regardless, I like these shoes a lot, and look forward to wearing them through the summer. RECOMMEND!
