I have been wearing this classic white slip on for almost a year. It's one of my favorite shoes. Because It's very perfect for everyday use. And also easy to match with any clothes. When I walk wearing this slip-on, it was very comfortable. The leather heels on the back of the shoes stay on my feet all day without flipperage. I love the design of the rubber waffle outsoles
which was the signature of that. For the price of the shoes, it's quite expensive but it's worth it from using good materials like vulcanized rubber which are used for their outsoles, canvas and leathers.
Because of the white color, the shoes are easy to get dirty. And when I wash my shoes it becomes gray and does not turn into the original white color again. So, be careful and try to find a better way to clean the shoes. The disadvantage that I also found is when I wear this without socks and walking too much, it gives me blisters.
However, If you want me to recommend one favorite shoe, It would be this one. Even if it's get dirty easily and gives me some blisters, If we handle it and treat them well. It would be nice to have it and wear it in everyday life.

Love these shoes as a classic staple of vans slip ons. The only thing I hate is that it's "off white" instead of just white & black. The off white makes the shoes look like they've been sitting in a smokers lounge collecting nicotine for a few weeks before they arrived. It's not the end of the world or the worst look but definitely think they'd be better with a stark/bright white instead of off-white.

Hey guys, don't fret, I never give 5* reviews but if I did you would've gotten it. First I'm a total Shoe Nut and have been for 3 decades. Also, I work for a Medical Cannabis Dispensary and I get more comments about some of my 'custom' and 'limited' Slip on Vans than almost any of my shoes. Some of my Classic Jordan's get a lot of talk, lol.
Love the Custom and Special prints you guys put out.

I love these, I love the plain color with the checkerboard around the shoe. I do wish that more shoes were offered in comfycush, ultracush, skate or something that offered more "cush" to it. But I do love this shoe. Its not quiet as sturdy as some of the other slip ones I have, so I can't just slide my foot in it and walk, I have to put them on (which is not a big deal) but my favorite are the ones I can just throw on floor and slide foot into.

These are not true to color in the picture. The orange/Desert Sun color is more of a burnt orange/ Browner tone.

LOVE THE PRINT! LOVE THE LEATHER ACCENT !
4 stars just because the fit is a bit larger than what normally wear.

I returned this boat shoe because I could not get it on my foot. My Arch is too high or shoe would not stretch enough to get my foot in.

I had to reorder these as the first pair, which I ordered in my size, I could not get on my feet even with a shoehorn. I ordered them two sizes larger and I can get them on. I would say their sizes run very small. But they are gorgeous. I will see how they wear, as this is my first pair of Vans.

good quality and they were correct with description. They were a little big for slim fit.

Bought this thinking finally an adult shoe in fuchsia...but not to be. It is definitely not as bold as the pictures online! Disappointing!

True to size . My daughter has a wide flat foot and the mens 10.5 were a perfect fit!

I ordered womens size 6.5. They were so tight my daughter couldn't get her foot inside. I ordered a women's size 7. They fit in length but again it's so tight she struggles to get them on. We normally order her a women's size 6.5 Vans with no problem. She has several pairs. But for some reason this butterfly pattern is extremely tight.

These shoes are super cute. The down side; possibly because they're a bit stiffer due to sparkles. It rubbed the back of my heel causing soreness. Carry band aid's!!

Initially gave me blisters on the backs of my heels which made them very uncomfortable if I didn’t wear socks to cover my ankles/back of my heel (I typically like the no show socks, personal preference). Love the way they look, and they absolutely go with just about everything. Will definitely buy again, this is my second pair.

I am on my feet a lot at work and I tend to stick with shoes with enough arch support so my feet aren’t aching at the end of the day. These Vans are cute and convenient to slip on, but they don’t offer a ton of arch support. I am in like, not love.

Vans, not a ton of padding in sole. Durable. After two years just wearing down inside heel, and rubber sides breaking away at base of toes. Overall, what I expect from a pair of Van's. And so many compliments on the colors.

I absolutely love the bands and the specific pattern on the shoe. They are comfortable to wear with or without socks. For those who might need more support they might need an insert for the shoe because it’s not very padded on the sole and has no arch support. However anyone that was buying a vans is not buying it for arch support.
