Zappos delivered a comfortable, quality shoe which was exactly what I needed. Service was excellent. Hurray for Zappos.

Exactly what I wanted. Mistakenly ordered the wrong size, called customer service and not only did they process my return and exchange, they sent it out express so I could get them the next day at no cost! Awesome all around. No complaints whatsoever.

I had my eyes on these slip-ons for a while. When I was ready to buy, Zappos had them even when Vans were sold out. The shoes arrived and were as comfortable as I imagined, not to mention how cute they are! I have been getting many compliments on these shoes. They are fun without being too over the top and look good with pants and dresses alike.

I received these shoes about three days ago in the mail, and they're phenomenal and comfortable! The cheetah print of these shoes are very detailed and print.

Love Zappos and love these shoes! I got the mint/green and white checkered. I am a woman's 9-9.5. The 9.5 were a little roomy so I tried the 9 which were a tinsy bit tight, dang! I saw a you tube video to pop them in the microwave for 25 seconds and viola!..they were instantly perfectly broken in like I had been wearing them for a few weeks!

I've been buying these shows for the last few years. Every year I've had to replace them (the canvas rips apart from the rubber rim). I'm in NYC so I attributed this to heavy wear in a city environment. The last two times I've tried to replace my best up pair, I've had to return them because I am unable to fit them on my feet. Seems that they've changed the sizing or something that makes these shoes run incredibly small. It's strange that other Vans shoe styles do fit but these don't anymore.

Love the pattern. Super cute. The elastic part that hits the top of foot will have to get worn in a bit - right now it hurts. I have very sensitive feet in that way though.

I saw this shoe with some outfit ideas on Pinterest and loved it! I ordered it from Zappos and they are even better in person. They seem to be super sturdy and the perforated leather is awesome! I mistakenly ordered a half size too large, so I sent them back and got a completely free exchange/shipping from Zappos. Definitely something I can wear through the winter and look good in, too!

These look essentially exactly like the photos given here. The slip-on is easy to slip on (and stays on, is not too loose). It looks good and is comfortable. If you have worn Vans before, you know that they basically have no padding or support and that the soles usually wear out quickly. So, these are not for serious athletic activity, running, or even long walks. But if you want something that looks good and to wear just for basic hanging out, then they fit the bill. For me, this was about the style and basic feel - almost like slippers, but ones that you can wear out and about and still look cool in, etc.

I found these to be a true fit, not a larger or smaller fit. I love the color! First day worn, no discomfort. This shoe has met my expectations.

This is the second pair of these shoes I've owned, because the first pair was so comfortable! Size and fit is bang on. I'm still wearing the first pair, but I wanted to get replacements for them before they really wore out. They've lasted a little over a year in my service, always reliable! I have very flat feet, so I couldn't speak to the arch support, however.

Love the ironic twist on animal print! This is my son's 10 pair of vans-they are always a favorite! He loves slip-ons. They do run small. I got a 6 in men's, 7 1/2 women and they were too small for my son. He usually can wear my shoes that re a 7.

It's a shoe that is obviously made for unisex sizing. In closed toe shoes I most often take an 11, but the 11's were way too big on me. Wide and long. I'll be returning.

I really dig the look of these shoes. I have trouble wearing most sneaker-type footwear but Van's slip-ons are comfortable even for my arthritic toe-joints. My first pair had some structural issues and Zappos was very quick to send me a replacement pair. Great customer service.

Bought these for my daughters birthday. She loves em!!!! She has always worn vans in this style and they do hold up good. The shipping was very fast as well. Overall, everything went very smoothly.

LOVED the style and color and was pumped to get them out of the box and on---but they will be coming back. Narrower than I would have thought.

Super comfy, fit perfectly. Ordered Saturday and had them Monday. Zappos is awesome! I plan on buying all my shoes from them. Their customer service team is amazing too.

Stylish and comfy in a retro way. Little arch support, so (for me) better for cruising around town than a long trek. The first pair was too tight so I exchanged them for a half size larger, which fits fine.

If you have a tall arch, or toenails that turn up like mine - fuggedaboudit, your foot will not be comfortable in these. Also they provide no support. They are OK for a teenager with no clue but for me? I need cushioning and support. They are very cute, though.

Classic shoe that you can't go wrong with in the summer. Sizes run big (typically I'm a 10 in Asics/Nike/Adidas, but run a 9 in Vans).

I love the classic vans. My 8-year-old son has worn them over the years and when I saw them in my size, I couldn't resist. This is a really comfortable shoe - perfect when you want to wear something like a sneaker but a running shoe is too bulky or just not right. This shoe can be worn with or without socks, so it works in any season.
