Customer Reviews Vans Classic Slip-On Checkerboard

I love these. Such a classic. I used to wear these when I was in college. Vans are affordable yet stylish. I find that I need to go down a half size. Which I initially forgot. I ordered my regular size 7 (womens) and they fit great initially. But these stretched a little after just a second wear. In the future I'll be sure to order my size 6.5/5 (womens/men). I would def recommend. I buy these for myself and my toddler son. So cute.

These shoes are very comfortable and look dressy because of the herringbone pattern. I am a teacher and am on my feet all day. I wanted cute shoes that provided support but didn't look old fashioned or matronly. These seem to fit the bill nicely. I would recommend these slip-ons.

I saw these shoes when putting together a blog article on slip-ons. Vans have a good reputation for being affordable and comfortable. But what got me was the leather black and white snake skin pattern. A really great neutral pattern to add style to any outfit. I finally took the plunge and bought them. They arrived yesterday thanks to Zappos super speedy VIP overnight shipping. I didn't want to take them off. They are so adorable and comfortable. I noticed today when I put them on my foot was a little sore in the pinky toe and big toe, but that will be alleviated when the leather conforms to my feet and stretches. I can wear them with skinnies, boyfriend jeans, leggings, and bootcut. They'll look great with skirts and dresses, too. The perfect bit of tomboy without looking too "boy." Love! I'd snag this before the pattern isn't available. (It was out of stock for like a month and when I bought it there was only 1 in my size.) Impressed and look forward to buying another soon.

I bought these for a trip to Europe. They were perfect for walking on cobblestones and waterproof when the streets were wet. They will be my go-to travel shoes. They do run short. I had to size up 1/2 size.

Shoes arrived in a timely manner and well packed. Son loves his new size 14 Vans! Thank you for carrying the larger sizes for us non-dainty folks.

Very nice shoe for the price. I've owned a couple pair of vans and my normal shoe size is a 12. I've noticed that with vans you have to go a size up. I really like the full checkered pattern of this shoe. It's very stylish and comfortable. I'd definitely recommend.

Awesome shoes. Had them when I was younger and now they're great to kick around in. Comfortable shoes once you break them in.

Wow - sizing is small. Still tight on my feet even though I went up a half-size and there is enough toe room. Bummer.

These sneaks are awesome! I got them for an upcoming trip where I knew is be doing a lot of walking and I've been wearing them ever since. They are comfortable and TTS. I took my usual size 8. I get compliments each time I wear them.

Loved these shoes from the moment I put them on. Was wanting a shoe with some cushioning for my foot, and this fit the bill. Cool look, fabulous feel. Thanks Zappos for another great pair of shoes.

LOVE 'EM! Great price for a great shoe! The leather is a bit stiff but you can break it in.

Love these shoes. Love Zappos. Shoes are a personal choice and I'm very happy with these Vans and like that they are leather and will take the summer thunderstorms without getting soaked. Zappos I have found is a superior company to do business with and intend to be a loyal customer.

I cannot believe how these shoes look and feel amazing! I had my eye on similar styles on another website (a pair of Vince slip ons) then began searching for a pair for my limited budget. Then I found these incredibly cute Vans Classic slip-ons in leather at a great price. My size was out of stock for two months on several websites, until I went to Zappos. My size was available, free shipping, and my shoes arrived quickly. Zappos service has always been top notch. Truly excellent!

My first pair of these shoes, I had the classic black and white checkered. I've had them for 3 years, basically used them every other day for work and they finally had to go. I've never felt so emotional about those pair of shoes, they went everywhere with me. I bought a new pair (as these are the only shoes that fit me like a glove). I bought the ASPCA slip ons. They are so adorable and fit the same way my old ones did. Planning on buying the leopard, chevron, and my checkered ones back again. Love these shoes.

I've been buying these shoes for about 40 years, buying from Zappos is where the real 5 stars review comes into play. Thank you!

I ordered the black perforated leather slip-ons, and they look so good! The leather is pretty matte, and they look nicer than the normal fabric Vans. The leather was a bit stiff and they were hard to get on the first time, but they seem to be breaking in a bit after wearing them around my apartment. I'll wear them with socks the first handful of times until everything loosens up, but they seem like they'll break in well.

Love these shoes! I have wide feet, and they fit great. The color is amazing! The photo is a good representation of how they look.

The name of the shoe says it all: these are classic. They are also slip-ons. They are also Vans, you know, just in case you missed that part. These are fine looking shoes, I'm almost guaranteed to get a compliment on them, so long as I remain in an area of the world where shoes are not looked upon as a source of evil.

These are true to size & even though I've only had them a short time I get lots of compliments. They are bright & cheerful & fun to wear.

These have been my go-to shoes for months now. They're perfect slip-ons for those lazy days when tying shoes is just too much. They clean up nicely after a day at the dog park so you can then wear them for a fun night out. The fit is fine (I usually wear a women's 5, and while it wasn't snug, it wasn't too loose), and there were no places that caused blisters. After months of use, they have worn well. No holes or tears. This will not be my last Vans purchase.

Great purchase. True to size. A great pick for those who aren't quite ready for the black and white checkerboard! Awesome service as always from Zappos!

Very good slip on shoes for daily casual wear! The shoes appeared to be 1 size smaller but with the help with the exchange system of Zappos I finally got the size that I want! Superb and good work like usual Zappos!

I am very happy with this purchase. The blue/brown check pattern looks great in person and actually serves as a good neutral. I have a wide foot and these shoes are really comfortable. Great retro buy!
