I normally wear a size 8 in women's; the men's 6 fit me perfectly. I followed the Vans website size chart on my first order and had to send the 6½ back because they ran half a size large for me. I have wide feet and these are very comfortable. I am able to wear them all day and I love them so much that I bought a second pair in a different color. I love that they are vegan.

They don't make these shoes to last. I got them on April 1st, they were destroyed by May 15th. Either the quality is down or my kid needs armor shoes. On a positive note they were very cute (day one).

Love these! Many compliments and I could only find them on Zappos! Had to go down a size from the narrow Vans. So glad I bought these, the "he loves me, he loves me not" is such a sweet touch.

Shoe is navy blue, not black. Can be hard to notice on your screen. Fits just like any other Vans slip-on and looks great!

This is the perfect summer slip-on...very comfortable and the color is very pretty. It also is very well made and substantial. I think they will wear very well for a few seasons at least.

I love this shoes, very stylish, true to size and comfortable to wear. It feels so light but I notice that when I walk on a hard floor it makes a "squeaky" noise but I like it so much so I'm keeping it. This is my first Vans slip-on and definitely won't be my last purchase. :) I'm happy that Zappos carry this brand. :)

One of the most comfortable pair of shoes I have and they broke it during first wearing. I got the multi/aborigine and the pictures online do not do them justice. If you are flat-footed these shoes will be comfortable all day and sizing was perfect.

These are so comfortable. Did not need to "break" them in at all. I also have gotten many compliments on the style.

Comfortable shoe. I usually wear a size 7.5-8 in women's. Some reviews said these were a little narrow so I ordered an 8. They were way too big. I looked like I had clown shoes on. However, customer service was very good about exchanging for smaller size and I received my size 7's the next day. My only complaint about these shoes is that the soles are super squeaky. That will go away over time though.

You know what they say about being as comfortable as an old shoe? Well, you get this with a new pair straight out of the box! I am not the trendy-type at all but some youngster was staggered to see me (59) wearing these, which immediately gave me some king of special kudos in their eyes!! Order as size 12 and fit perfectly. If only the rest of the Zappos supplied ranges were equally sized, I'd know exactly what to order every time!

I have been wearing Vans for over 10 years. Every pair, no matter the model, fit true to size, are durable, and stylish. Please be advised that the Van Doren throwback series won't look exactly like the pictures. They are, however, cool as all get out.

I love my Vans classic slip ons. Black is a great shoe for the winter in California. Perfect with a pair of skinny jeans. Short break-in period (probably zero break in period if you wear socks).

Upon request, I ordered this shoe for my adult daughter at Christmas. She loves the shoe and worn out the previous pair. When she took them home, she realized that she had told me the wrong size. She needed a half size larger. Six weeks later, after visiting her, out of town, I returned the shoes and requested the next size up. I received the exchange immediately via free shipping. Great shoe. Great return shipping policy.

I've been wearing Vans for years. They are so comfortable and reasonably priced. I purchased the (Denim/Checkered) Black/True White slip-on and I love them! Once again Zappos rocks! My purchase arrived to my home the next day! Thank you Zappos for providing such great online service.

Very comfortable, the predominately orange and blue print is very springy/summery (and incorporates many other colors, making them very versatile). They are user friendly, lots of fun and I'm very happy with them and have received many compliments!

These shoes are so cute and bright. I really wanted to love them. However, the the pattern on the pair I received had a two-headed snake on one shoe (not my favorite design, but I could live with it) the other shoe had an anatomically correct, topless mermaid right on the top of the shoe -- not exactly what I was expecting. They are cute - if you don't mind a naked lady on your shoe.

I ordered these for my husband and he has been very pleased with them. They go great with black pants or shorts. I love the fabric. I would definitely recommend these if you're looking for something other than a plain black or gray pair.

I bought these shoes for my son as a Christmas present. These are his favorite shoes as a high school teacher. I was amazed at how quickly I received them. It was quicker than any other on-line purchase. Also, I was so impressed at how quickly Zappos exchanged them since I bought the wrong size. I will definitely purchase more of these and other shoes from Zappos.

Van's still rock! You won't be disappointed in this shoe. Fit is true, and style is comfy. Zappos customer service is awesome! Best company that I dealt with the entire holiday season!

The shoes were for my 15-year-old daughter for Christmas. They are very cute and she loves them. They are typically worn by boys but she looks very cute in them and says they're very comfortable and wears them most every day.

Some of the best shoes ever made. I'm pretty much a size 10 across the board and these are true to form. Foot slides right in and stays right where it needs to be. Light as air with a solid yet flexible and grippy sole. I feel comfortable in these pretty much where ever I go. They're a little lightweight for the job site, but great for light interior work, washing the car or cleaning around the house. They may cut in around the ankles at first but if you work 'em in a little bit and you have the right size, they'll soon fit like a glove...for your feet. I've had three pairs and love 'em all. Great for being lazy and/or active at the drop of a hat. These shoes are legendary classics for a reason.

Always a great choice for the son. These are his favorite shoes. He just goes up in size. He is pretty rough on them and they last around six months. That is not bad for the price.
