These get clunky and heavy on my feet. Plus, they were a bit masculine for my liking

This review is related to the Moto Leather Birch Vans slip-on. I have done a review on their classic canvas slip-ons which I LOVE, but the leather version was not great for me. I bought it in my normal 7 size, and it felt very narrow/tight and also shorter (my toes brushed up against the tip when they don't in the canvas). The overall look was the same as the canvas, and I wanted to love it, but it just didn't work for me in the leather. In the future, if I try the leather versions, I think I'll have to go up a half-size to one-size bigger to accomodate the tighter feeling of the leather. On a side note, I like the off-white color of the leather and the ribbing was a subtle but added some nice texture and flair to the shoe.

This shoe is beautiful, but I'm going to have to return it. I need the next 1/2 size up, and it's out of stock. I'm disappointed but I know that Zappo's will let me know when it's stocked again.
The color is very pretty - a very soothing muted purple. I can't wait until it is in stock again.

These are comfortable and easy to slide on, especially if you’re a no-sock person. I do usually wear socks to help absorb some of the width. They seem a little wider than Tom’s slip-ons. Btw, this is a very pretty shade of pink. It’s more of a crisp, “cool” shade of pink - not a warm shade of pink.

These are not my first pair of Vans and I was looking for another pair that was unique. I love the color of the gray/violet. What I am very disappointed by is the front of the shoe constantly hitting the top of my foot. With each step the top of the shoe digs into the top of my foot. I think the material/color makes this material seem stiffer than my previous canvas pair. Overall the size fit me perfectly, with or without low cut socks.

Looks great on. Felt a bit wider than it should - and I have wide feet. The biggest trade off is comfort for style. Vans slip ons are really flat, but they are generally comfy otherwise.

I like the cream off white color. The fact that they are leather makes them really easy to wipe clean. These shoes were pretty tight on my feet at first. I figured it would take a couple wears for the shoes to adjust. They feel fine now! I like that they can be dressed up a little or dressed down. I have to wear closed toed shoes to work with casual clothes. I needed something other than tennis shoes! These worked out perfectly!

Vans have always been my go to for sneakers and the fun shade of pink makes them even better. They always pick the best colors to add each season!

Bought these for my husband, a die-hard Vans enthusiast, he loves them. He has wide, flat feet and Vans works really well for him, even when standing on his feet all day. I got him the black slip-on with the fire on rubber on the outside. He loves them, lots of compliments.

Comfortable, classic. I bought the elderberry color thinking it looked like a faded lavender. In reality the color is closer to plum, and doesn't really work for me.

I bought the "moto leather, blanc de blanc" slip on. They look just like the picture, sort of an off-white cream color. Others have said this shoe is too narrow or too tight. I've purchased these slip-on Vans before, in canvas, and they do take a little breaking in. I've had these for only about a week now and worn them only once, and they do feel tight. But I imagine they're built off the same lasts as the canvas ones I bought previously. Those were most comfortable, but the toes have worn through after two or three years of wear. I think these new ones may take a bit longer to break in, but once they've stretched out, they'll be fine. Think about it: If they weren't a bit tight to start with, once you get them stretched out and broken in, they're liable to fall off from being too loose.

This shoe is cute (loved the navy with pink), but I found it so uncomfortable. The canvas was stiff against my feet. Might have been tolerable with socks, but I was looking for an easy slip-on to wear without socks. Back it goes.

order a half size up. My feet are low volume, and i wear a 9 in every other shoe I have, but needed to go to 9.5 in vans or my pinkie toes get squished. bought these to wear barefoot or with very light socks, but would need a 10 for anything heavier.
wear socks when you break them in. The day after I got them, I made the mistake of walking around a city without wearing socks, and rubbed the area above my ankle raw within the first hour on the leather on the heel.

Don’t order the perforated suede silver/true white! I’ve had them for less than 2 months, and they already have a huge hole on the side — haven’t even worn them more than 5-10 times. Otherwise, Vans are usually my favorite.
