Customer Reviews Vans Classic Slip-On Checkerboard

I purchased these for my elderly mother, and she loves them.

Love the style but was disappointed at the fit they were narrow and the stitching inside rubbed my foot. My daughter who has a narrow foot tried them on as well and felt they were too tight as well. I usually wear a 9 but ordered a 9.5 for the extra room but these were still too snug.

My first pair of Vans Classic Slip-Ons. These are really comfortable shoes. I wanted a pair of shoes that I don't have to wear with socks. These fit the bill. They're white, so they can get dirty, but overall they look really nice after a couple of weeks of wearing them. My wife absolutely loves them. When fall comes I'm going to buy another pair in a darker color. Do yourself a favor and buy a pair of these right now!

Let me begin by saying how much I love zappos, wonderful company! The shoes however we an absolute nightmare. I wore them to a concert, needless to say, I had to shove napkins in every angle of the shoe just to make through the night! Bleeding everywhere, blisters galore, if I could return them I would. So disappointed in these vans shoes:(

I love them! Very comfortable. Finally found a skip on sneaker that stays in my ankle and doesn't slip off.

The shoe is smaller than marked. It is too tight.

I love these! My much-cooler (i.e. younger) daughter was actually jealous when she saw me wearing these Vans. I ordered my usual size and they fit just fine. However, until they are fully broken in I'm wearing thin socks so no "new-shoe rubbing" occurs.

I'll preface by saying, I Love Vans. However I am truly disappointed with the sizing, fit, and quality of this shoe. Way too narrow, and I have a narrow foot! I wear a size 9.5W so I ordered a 10W b/c I like thick socks, tried on without said thick socks, used really thin socks to get true fit feel, and my big toe is bumping the front of the shoe! If you have ever experienced this type of situation before and wore poorly fitting shoes anyway then you know it's a matter of 24 to 36 hours before you lose your big toe nails, it's happened. Anyway, just uncomfortable and I am bummed. I am ordering a half size up, but I do not believe they will be any better fitting. Longer sure, but not a better fit. I will let you know.

These shoes have a great feel in their fit. A little snug, but I'm positive that will have some wiggle room once I wear them a few times. I typically wear a 7 in tennis shoes and that's what I went with on these Vans.

A little hard to put on, but once on, incredibly comfortable! Great looking too. What's not to like!!

Perfect fit, perfect look. They are exactly what I was looking for and more comfortable than what I expected!

These shoes are beautiful. I got so many compliments on them. They are very comfortable and fit perfectly. I love them.

I loved this shoe but it was much too big - too long and too wide. I usually wear a M width and it was huge. Since these are unisex sizes, women might consider sizing down.

SIZING ALERT: Get 1 full size lower than what you normally wear! I wear an 11.5 in all other Vans shoes. I received these in 11.5 and they fit sloppy. I tried an 11 after that. The 11s were tolerable but I feared they would become too loose after they stretched out a bit. I finally ordered the 10.5s and they fit perfectly. I'm a man with an medium width foot and medium arch.

I wanted a pair of white shoes and decided to go with the braided suede. They were great at first but obviously white shoes get dirty. But cleaning braided suede is not easy. You cannot clean them properly without scratching up the suede. I wish I went with a different material! I've had them for 2 weeks and they look terrible.

I absolutely love these shoes! I have been searching for good slip-on sneakers. Something casual but that I could also wear with a skirt or casual dress. Plus, I can wear socks with them (totally plus)! They are super comfortable. I can wear them all day and walk for miles. They took zero breaking in and run true to size. I love the material (embossed weave).

Love the shoe but ran a tad big on my foot. I always wear an 8.5 in Vans...not sure why these ran bigger. Sadly returning. They are cute as heck!

I purchased these and also the Pacific Isle canvas. I totally loved these shoes, but they dug into my upper heel (even though the length of the shoe was perfect), whereas the canvas shoes did not; guessing it's the thickness of the leather collar. I am returning these, sadly...

These are perfect for use on my exercise bike as no other shoe fits inside the foot straps on my bike. I have been wearing Vans slip-ons since the 1980's and these are the classic Vans everyone wore in the 1980's.

Perfect fit on these shoes. The color is somewhere in between grey and blue. I'm happy with my purchase.

I love these Vans. Great color of pink. Caution they do stretch out. Get 1/2 size smaller than your normal size Vans that you wear.

Basically, I love these shoes. However, they run big and I had to go down half a size. I also needed to put in heel protectors so they would't slip off. I bought a second pair and had to do the same.

The pink was quite pretty, but the shoe itself is quite galumphy in both fit and appearance. I wear a 9M but these, even though they fit I guess, made my feet appear truly enormous. Very unflattering. Also very flat and unsupportive. I think if one had a high instep it might be better.
