I did get them a half size larger than usual so I could put in orthotics for my high arches, but the sizing seems pretty accurate. The size 8M would be a little wide for me without the orthotic arch insole but I have a slightly narrow foot. The insole that came with them was not great but comes out easily if I want to remove them. Overall I like them but had forgotten how heavy Vans are (haven't had them in years). They are still well made slip-ons like I remember, but with a fun swirl design, good sole grip, and same heavy duty canvas.

Recently bought these through the flagship store in NYC 2 weeks ago and of, course, I love them. They were on sale then and I paid $10 more than there are going for here in this sale.

I bought these because my old pair was getting worn out, they are so cute! I ordered my regular size 8 but they are giving me blisters but I'm still breaking them in so hopefully they'll loosen up.

Like the shoe and glad it felt narrower than most mediums. There was just no arch support and to add my own support would cause them to not fit on my larger foot. Not the fault of the shoe. Good looking shoe.

Van's are well made. They run a little big. My Grandson is very hard on his shoes so I hope these hold up for awhile.

I wear these at my gigs ... lol.. they look pretty good when dancing around on my pedal board
Only downside is I wish it was much easier to order these in a wide ... would be a touch more comfortable

Although these shoes are not the most comfortable I've ever worn, I am hoping they will break in and feel better later. They are really cute so I'll hope for the best and keep wearing them. Thank you...

I think these are really cute. However, I ordered an 8, and now Zappos has sent me a 7.5 three times in a row! (I call up customer service, I tell them they sent me wrong size, they tell me they’ll send the right one, and then the wrong one arrives again — three times now!) I think I give up. Maybe I’m not meant to have these shoes.

I wear checkered Vans daily. I absolutely love them. This color looked awesome on the site however it's not that bright once you get them. I have a maroon pair as well and they are almost the same color.

This is the first pair of Van's I've owned, I'm 55 years old so its long over due! Soles are not very thick so I would not wear for miles of walking but perfect for going out on the town. Love my new Van's! Rattlesnake design is appropriate for my home in Tucson!

Loved the design! Only thing is they are a little tight in the top of the foot hopefully they feel better after I break them in.

These are very pretty and stylish. The pattern is unique. They fit a little differently than my typical womens 8.5 though. They are actually a little snug in the toe area to the point where it hurts to wear them for hours at a time. I'm hoping I can break them in quickly though.

I thought these were pinker than they are. They are more tan-ish. I was looking to replace the light pink checkerboards that I had and loved. Hopefully I'll grow to love these too.

I love the pattern, can go with almost anything without looking too out of place. (For me) I like the collar padding but wish the insoles were cush. If these were removable I could put my cush insole from the slip on I don't wear as much in and make them perfect. My perfect Van's would be all the cool designs but include padded collar, pro cush insole and slightly padded tongue. I love them all. I'm sure I have over 30 pairs. Always buy in pairs. Lol. Been wearing since 80s when I raced BMX. I remember the Van's half pipe and the mass of Van's being sold at events. I still have high tops from 80s in attic.

I bought this pair after trying them on at the Vans store. I was going on vacation and wanted a pair of walking around shoes. In terms of style, this pair was pretty much what I wanted. However, after wearing them for two hours, they started irritating my little toe. I hope Vans starts making a line for wider feet.

I ordered these for my 15 year old and she loves them. I originally ordered a mens 6 but had to send back and get a mens 7.5. They run small!
