Customer Reviews Vans Sk8-Hi

These are super cute, and the color is wonderful! But I had to return them because the 10 1/2 was too small, and the 11 was way too big. I'll buy a pair in person.

These are okay. One of my shoes was dirty for some reason. And they arnt laced yet. Quality isn’t as good but it’s alright

Super cute but really difficult to put on without loosening the laces all the way. It just takes a lot longer to put them on and take them off than I’d prefer, but the look is great.

The length seemed correct but they really pinched my pinky toes.

I think they are pretty comfortable but we’re too big! I always wear a size 11.5. I have since I was in high school. I am now 42 and when I put these on they were definitely about 3/4 to 1 inch too long. My kids laughed at them and said”nice clown shoes Dad”! LOL. Needless to say they are a return. Probably great for the younger crowd though!

Love Vans. These are too small and literally red suede has turned entire shoe and laces red. Weird.

I loved how comfy they were, light and good looking, but I sent them back. I ordered my size; they were okay front to back and the side-width was okay in the foot bed but I couldn't lace them. Maybe it was the design, I'd never worn this SK8-Hi style before but I couldn't lace them. The gap between the left and right eyelets, the area where the laces are on top of the tongue... was so wide! Once my foot was in the shoe, I couldn't draw that distance together, as though there wasn't enough material on the sides of the shoe for the eyelets be laced towards each other. Like my foot was weirdly tall. This is not a problem I've had with any other shoe. There wasn't enough lace length to reach the last 3 eyelets. (a photo would have made this clear, but I didn't take one - sorry)

This shoe has all the pop of the traditional vans skate shoe. It looks absolutely great. The color is awesome. Unfortunately, it just doesn’t fit that great. It was hard to tell the full picture until I took it out to skate. They aren’t breaking in fast, and my pinky toes get almost blistered after about 30 min of wearing them. But, if your foot is really, really narrow, they may fit you a lot better.

These are nothing like the other SK8MTE Felt cheap, uncomfortable, too wide and color was not as nice as the picture! The vinyl in the back interior isn’t my thing either!

I thought at first they were going to be suede, The guy on the phone even said they were! They’re 100% canvas and the color is too bright for me! What annoys me the most with these, The vinyl in the rear inside of the shoe! This cheapens the quality! The other ones I own are, SK8 MTE, they have a comfy material interior, they’re also suede! Water resistant! I’ve another pair I need to return, They’re suede, but, still have the same interior. I think they should all have an all fabric interior! I wasn’t sure till I recieved them, I’m Disappointed! At least Zappos have the best return Policy! Thanks!

This shoe looked great and the length was fine but the shoe is cut very wide.

My daughter loves these shoes...they are hip, happening ...

These definitely aren't intended to wear day to day. They just aren't supportive or comfortable - which is probably part of the point. Oddly, my biggest deal breaker was how impossible they were to get on and off. My foot would be wedged between the high top and laced tongue.

Decent

Color rubs off on everything like Cheeto dust!! :P Hard to keep white laces looking fresh with that going on.

If only they made these in wide for my swimmer feet. I have had a couple pair of these and now they cause me pain and sorrow bc I can't wear them comfortably.

Tried several hi tops and preferred the Supra to the classic vans. I didn't find these stylish enough or comfortable enough.

Absolutely no vents in this shoe unlike other vans, buy these if you want super sweaty feet

Floppy compared the suede/canvas sk8-hi core classics that I love. Cute color(purple). Doesn't hold its shape, has plasticy white material lining the ankle that is very uncomfortable with shorter socks.

Zappos a fantastic well run company! The shoes arrive so fast you can't believe it. The return policy is good, fast,and easy too. The one drawback I've encountered is that the companies making the shoes I've purchased, mostly in China of course don't know how to utilize a standard measurement standard called shoe size. I've repeatedly ordered my size, a very common men's 10.5 US which I've had for 40 years and the shoes are too small. I've had to go 1/2 a size bigger or a full size at times. Other times even 2 sizes up was too small. There is something very wrong with that. However it's typical of cheap Chinese manufacturing methods. That must be a real pain for a good company like Zappos.

If you are a woman who needs a wide shoe and buy men's models to get it, this line will not work for you. I ordered a men's 9.5/women's11 and the toe box is too narrow. I don't know if many men can wear this shoe. It definitely is not a D width. It's going back and I will not buy this brand again.

way too small
