Love these shoes! I got them in rose gold metallic, they go with a lot and are very on trend. I have to speak to Zappos and their amazing customer service! First pair I received was defective - the metallic rubbed off after a few hours of wear (second pair is perfect with no issues!) After emailing Zappos about the first pair they sent me a new pair, let me keep the old pair, and sent me a coupon for the inconvenience! Seriously an amazing company to do business with, I already shop Zappos a lot but I can truly say I'm a customer for life!

Love these shoes! They're a bit tight to start with and have taken about a week to break in but now they're super comfortable. Very happy with this purchase

I received the Rainbow True White yesterday, only to discover that they were quite damaged. There were blue spots all over the yellow strip, a chunk out of the sole, and the inner sole cushion looked unfinished. Oh my, such a disappointment. They are super cute, and comfy; I need wide shoes after having kids, and these feel quite good. They just don't look good :/ Kudos to Zappos for their customer service and remedying the problem, but buyer beware!

These are my first pair of Vans and they won't be my last! I was initially hesitant about the metallic color, because it is really bright & shiny. But now I have come to realize that they can be dressed up or down. Every time I wear them I get so many compliments & they are so comfortable. I am normally a 7.5 but after reading the reviews & talking with someone who has a pair, they said to size down a half a size as well. I am glad I did. The 8's would have been too large. Love these shoes & you will to!

I tried both the 7-1/2 and the 8. Neither felt very comfortable-- felt a little clunky or heavy. The 7-1/2 was too short but fit in the width. The 8 just felt big overall.

Absolutely love these shoes! They are so comfortable on my wide fit. My converse rubbed my foot so badly I couldn't walk at time so it was nice to find something that fit without rubbing. Highly recommend!

I'm solidly a women's size ten. Ordered two pairs, 10 and 10.5 based on reviews, but the 10.5 was way too big. I returned both pairs. I was unpleasantly surprised to notice a scratching sensation. The elastic tabs and stitching that allow for slip-on action are abrasive. Otherwise the shoes felt like a dream. I almost sucked it up, but it's ridiculous that a classic style (ie been around for years and years) would have what seemed like a careless oversight in comfort. I admit I have sensitive feet, but I want the inside of my shoes to be as comfortable as the exterior is stylish.

Cute, very comfortable. Definitely would not recommend vans (in general) for someone who needs arch support. The slips specifically can feel a bit loose on the foot, especially for someone used to wearing vans with laces. But I found that going down a size (or half size) made them too small. If they feel too lose, I recommend washing them - the canvas will shrink a bit, making them more comfortable and tight on the foot.
I'd also recommend:

This is my second pair of Classic Vans Slip-on shoes. Both pairs were tight in the width, at first. I haven't had sufficient opportunity to "break them in" yet, but I'm hopeful that, in time, they will ease up on my feet. I did find that they cover a lot of my feet, both on the sides and on the top. That's part of the reason they're a little uncomfortable when I first put them on. I need to use a shoe horn to get them on, but then I can wear them for a while.

Love these! I needed something casual I could slip on and wear for errands or when I didn't want to wear heels, and these are perfect. They're sassy but casual, and I always get tons of compliments. My only challenge was the rubbing on the top of my foot the first times I wore them- but Now that they're broken in they're perfect!

I have many pairs of Vans and I'm not sure what they did with this particular design/fit. They are so deep or the back comes up so high that it tears up my heals. I've tried wearing them 2x for long periods and end up with bloody heals; I even put in thing gel pads to raise my foot height to no avail. So disappointed as they are adorable.

I bought the classic vans slip on shoes in the embossed woven suede microchip style. The look is awesome, a little different with the woven suede...great for everyday casual, but with extra style! I am a size 5 (women's) and typically, standard width shoes are tight on my feet because I have a wider foot. I was surprised that these actually have a little extra room all around. Not quite enough that it is a full half size bigger, but, definitely roomier. So, if you have a narrow foot, these might feel really big. Overall, I'm very pleased with the purchase!

I have not bought a new pair of Vans in yrs. I find these to still run true to size and be quite comfortable. I love the pink color.

Super cute shoe in the palest of pink. They go with everything! Fit true to size with no blisters from the first wearing. Since they are suede I treated them with a suede protector spray, which has kept them looking good.

I normally wear a 11.5 in Mens but kept the 11. They seem narrower then most Mens shoes which is a positive.

You don't have a wide option when buying this shoe however, when you filter on wide this is an option. I bought the shoes in a female 10.5 and I have a wide foot with no arch. The shoes were pretty tight. They do stretch a little but I wouldn't recommend them for ladies with wide feet.

These are really cute sneaks. True to picture and size, and the light pink with speckles in them is both fun and classic. I haven't worn them out yet but around the house they are very comfortable. I have a very high arch so usually hard to get my foot into this type of shoe, so it is nice to find something where arch is not an issue. Only minor complaint is they are a little squeaky but hoping that will go away over time.
