Customer Reviews Vans Classic Slip-On Checkerboard

These are super cute but they just didn't work for my son. Both sizes we tried were two short but also too loose in the heel, so they kept slipping off. I think his feet are just too narrow to work with this style. Too bad bc they looked great!

fit was very nice

Loved these sneakers, unfortunately they started falling apart after being worn a year. Will need to repurchase!

Great. I love these, wear them almost all the time

Comfortable and stylish

The fit was good, these are very cute shoes, my daughter loves these

I was not sure these sneakers were my style but after borrowing my daughters for a day, I had to have my own pair. I ordered the Dove Gray, love the color. i generally wear a 7 or 7-1/2. I had ordered the 7-1/2 but felt they were a little big so the 7 fits perfectly.

It’s valid it’s just a little hard to put on it’s like rubbery because my other slip on vans is size 7.5 and I got this in 7.5 but it’s not the same

They're Vans. I got a half size up and they're super comfortable. Not the best foot bed, not even the best Vans makes, but not the worst ever. Plus, they look super cool.

Shoes were not as nice as expected.

Love the style of these slip ons, but I wish they would make them in a wider fit. My daughter tried a size 7.5 (little tight) and 8 (too big) and was in between sizes. We opted to keep the 7.5 in hopes they will stretch a little; like her previous slip ons.

Bought red check shoe for my 12 year old son. He loves them. Only reason I gave them a 4 was because he has a high instep and the slide on shoe is a bit tough to get on over the high part of his foot. I think they may stretch in time.

It's a classic... looks great and lots of fun. But if you want arch support or cushioning you must put in supports (of course it's made for the younger crowd who don't usually need that, but I do). It's well made and all the colors are great.

Felt tight. Even hard to get on vs easily slipping on. Will be returning.

I wore the shoes at home and to our grandson's baseball games, feeling very comfortable. So, taking them to DC for 4-day vacation that would include extensive daily walking seemed like a given. On Sunday, June 9, 2019, 2 grandchildren and I arrived in rainy DC. I wore the Vans with low-cut socks and was surprised to develop a sizable, bleeding blister on my left heel after walking only about 1 mile. Most significantly, my feet unexpectedly slipped on a wet street gate while walking with my 15 and 8-year-old grandchildren and fell flat on my back. I am a 70-year-old female who did not, luckily, break any bones because of 10 years of weight lifting. However, I have taken nsaids since Sunday evening and continue to have pain in the palm of my left hand and lower back. Using stairs and standing from a sitting position are painful. If Vans can only be worn in dry conditions I have wasted money. I will be unable to attend classes at the gym for at least a week or two.

Love the camo!

My wife loves her Vans!

Great looking shoe. The black leather looks nice along with the contrast of the color of the inner lining of the shoe. Pretty comfortable for the most part. If you're prone to fatigue or require more arch support the shoes may be a little uncomfortable after a while. Overall pretty great and stylish pair of slip ons.

I felt like these are larger than the size I wear in other shoes. Other than the fit, they held up very well.

These are the only vans I’ve had to get a size bigger than what I normally wear. I wear a 12 in women, I had to go up to a 13.

Great retro style with nice variety of colors!

Bought for my daughter... needed a half size up from her normal size. She loves them and gets lots of compliments on them.

This is my first pair of Vans. I wanted a comfortable slip-on pair of shoes for traveling, etc. and these fit the bill. It is true what others have said that they have a wide toe box and I love this about them as this is a style I search for in all my running shoes, etc. (I don't have particularly wide feet, just love the extra room) - you can definitely notice the difference when comparing them to Converse all stars which are narrower in the toe region. It's also true that they run quite large - I am typically in between a size 9.5-10, usually a 10 in most shoes. Therefore since people said they ran large I ordered the 9.5 thinking that would be perfect. These were actually big and I ended up exchanging them for a 9. While I haven't worn them a lot yet they are very comfortable in the times I've tried them.

love this shoe

Really like these classic Vans slip-ons. While they don't have much support or cushioning, they're comfortable enough. Love the style with the black and grey material. Definitely my new go-to sneaker.
