The most comfortable shoes! I thought these were "too young" for me, but recommended by my daughter-in-law, ordered them and am delighted!

I love the shoes, but they do not provide the amount of support for the pronation of my feet even with custom orthotics. The shoes have good weight underneath but no side support. I would love to wear them for all of their casual flair! But sadly they are not for me.

I commute on foot 2.5 miles a day and these are my go-tos (work better for me than Supergas AND Converse). This fabric style is slightly heavier than the normal canvas, but I love them!

Love them! Picked these up a few weeks ago and have been wearing them since. I'm in my late 30's with a couple young kids and a full time career. These shoes are easy and fun to wear.

Having been a Keds fan for years, I have recently discovered Vans. Keds had always been my go-to but there was always an irritating seam that dug into the top of my arch. Have two pairs of Vans now and I'm sold on them. These ones I wore right out of the box with no socks and they are as comfy as slippers - no friction points or seams that dig in - just right like Cinderella. Plus they're cute! Note: I have always been a pretty solid size 10 but I had to exchange these for a 9.5 which fit perfect. Everyone's foot is different though but for me the 10 was noticeably longer. Please get these in espresso because that's my favorite color! Lastly: I love Zappos. Love the next day shipping on most orders, free returns, and the website. Don't change a thing!

I absolutely love my new Vans. I got the vintage floral, they are so cute and I look pretty cool for a 60 year old lady!

What can I say? Been wearing these since 1983. First pair were custom purple and pink checkerboards, back when you had to order them directly from Vans. (no easy feat since I was living in Germany) - Same quality, fit and look since the beginning. These ones are cool, the blacks are shiny and the gray/black is not. hip, comfy, easy. I'm too old to skate.. but not too old to wear these bad boys while kickin it at the neighborhood bar enjoying a cold frosty one.

Stick with Vans.

Very cute color in crackled black. Comfortable, just needed a little breaking in on my right heel and the top of my left foot.

I really like these - the color is neutral and very pretty. The shoes felt a bit heavier on my feet than expected, but I plan to keep them and look forward to wearing them this spring!

Love these shoes from the get-go! No "breaking in" needed! These are my very first Vans purchase, and I couldn't be happier! Super versatile, comfy and they fit true to size in my opinion. I wear women size 5.5 in most brands, and I got these in 5.5 as well. On a different note, this is my second time purchasing from Zappos, and I've always been very satisfied with their service. I highly recommend these shoes and Zappos! :-)

What's to say, they are as awesome as I remember from 20 some years ago. Was looking for a casual sneaker for summer to replace my worn out converse, these are actually more comfortable for me as the toe box is a little wider than the converse.

Great shoes. I have wanted a pair since the 80's and having just read Tony Hsieh's book, thought I would buy them from Zappos. Easy shopping and fast shipping.

I love these shoes. They are very true to fit and comfortable. I have high arches so when I do a lot of walking I insert a liner with more support but for everyday kicking around these shoes rock!

These look even better in person than they do in the pictures. Got these for my wife and they fit true to size. Classic vans.

Received so many compliments on these- very comfy and exactly what you want from a pair of slip ons. These are slightly narrow, especially through the heel.

Great for summer. I love that both shoes are not the same. Fabric is a little stiff at first, rubs the tops of your toes, but it softens with use.

It is extremely hard for me to find these shoes in my size. I LOVE that you had them in stock.

LOVE these shoes - perfect to slip on with skinny jeans, leggings or short - a bit more polished that a regular sneaker and the leather doesn't get as dirty as the canvas. The run a bit big - I normally wear an 8 and ordered a 7 and they're perfect.

Comfortable and cute! I ordered the perforated leather Vince slip ons for a lot, and they kept slipping off. These fit much better and are a fraction of the cost!

I was almost embarrassed to buy these -- was thinking they would be for someone much younger who skateboarded -- but after trying the Tory burch, Michael kors, corso como and Lacoste I found that these were really comfortable! It may be because they are unisex sizes and these are wider than the rest, but I really love them and they go with everything.

Love these shoes. I was looking for a slip on comfy walk around, travel shoe and this is it. I chose the black with little dots, I think it goes with lots of outfits, jeans, white capris, shorts. I got my regular size and they fit very well. I did have to stretch out the opening to relax the thick padding around the ankle and top of foot. I put canned beans in the shoes and them sit for a day or two. It worked like a charm. Love the shoes, will order them in another color for sure.

I was so excited to receive these, however the size I usually wear in slip on vans fit too big (my heel slipped out). So I ordered a size down, and although the fit was more snug my heal still slipped out. I'm not sure why these seemed to be cut slightly different than my checkered pair of the same style. Bummed to have to return them...

These are great everyday shoes! They run true to size and are very good looking (I am a sucker for suede). They are comfortable for all day on your feet. I am 54.
