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!

Sk8-Hi Obsession -
Please stop coming out with so many cool looking color combinations in the SK8-Hi's. I am weak, and will order them all. These are my favorite shoe of all time and I have been buying them since like 8th-grade. I'm hoping Van's will reproduce the previous Hi-Top style that came before the SK8-Hi's.

My daughter loved these -
My daughter was very excited about these - they are cute, trendy, and not much is out there for her in a women's size 13. At 11 years old she likes cute & these are definitely cute. Fit is true, they are a little wide.

I just got these shoes in the mail the other day, only two days after I ordered them. These are my third shoes that I bought from Zappos.com. Great quality and great service. I can't wait to start wearing them in public. Yay thanks Zappos.

There’s a reason for 30 years.
I love these shoes to death! They are some of the best I've ever skated and I don't think I will skate anything else. The only problem is that their kind of hard to put on, so just bar lace them, but other than that I love these!

Great retro style-
This is my third pair of these from Zappos. These shoes are fantastic once they break in (doesn't take long).
So many shoes these days are so dressed up like they belong to some kind of astronaut. I always get great compliments on the shoes wherever I go. These have a very classic style to them and that's why I have been wearing these since the 70's. Shoe fitting wise if you wear a 9 1/2 get a size 9.

The fit was great, but found them incredibly difficult to get on, I had to keep stretching them with my hands, and after about 5 times got them. Wish they had a tab to help pull them on.
Also, I have the picante color and the dye from it is rubbing off when I put them on, it’s gotten all over the white laces.

Perfect first hi-tops -
Great-looking shoes - wear with the tongue in or out, comfortable except for an initial rubbing of the back part of the hi-top because it's new and stiff. Loosening the laces will help with this. I'm very very happy with these. I wear an 8.5 90% of the time (9's very rarely), so I ordered my exact size. They felt only slightly larger than other 8.5's, though not enough for me to buy a smaller size.

Great Look -
Not a bad shoe but my Hallie and Bearkitty's are more comfortable. This is my first pair of hi-tops and they take getting used to. They don't have the arch or heel support like the Hallie but that's ok. I like the look and even though they aren't comfortable enough for all-day walking, I can still wear them at work and just take them off when I get home. I take a 7 in regular shoes and always a 7.5 in sneakers, so these were right on the money for size. The width was also perfect for my foot, felt secure.

Great shoes that take a bit of wearing in before becoming totally comfortable. Fit and finish is good.

Great look, zero comfort.
The shoe looks great and is a deep brown. The sole is flat with zero support. Buy insoles. Beauty ain't comfort. Placed order one day and received the shoes the next afternoon.
