I love these shoes. I have three pairs already. They are the most comfortable slip-on sneaker out there. Love all the designs and styles. My only problem, for lack of a better word, is that I have wide feet so when I first buy a pair they feel slightly too tight. But they stretch the more you wear them, so I don't mind them being a little tight in the beginning if they fit better in the long run. So, they are pretty true to size, but if you have a wider foot you may want to try a half size larger if you don't want to wait for them to stretch.I also tend to have problems with shoes that have no arch support. But these shoes don't seem to give me a problem. Not sure why that is, but I never need to wear arch supports with these.

I bought these for my husband for a gift and he loves them. Good everyday shoe. Just like other slip-on shoes we have ordered for him the past. Zappos had them to my house the next day.

I ordered, what I refer to as the, Spicoli's and so far they are my favorite pair of vans. The size I ordered ran a little larger so I had to return and get a half size smaller, but everything thing was handled professionally and efficiently, got my new vans the same day I returned the larger size, which all happened w/in two days of the original receipt. I received my Vans exactly as described and they wear perfectly. I can really wear them w/ anything, and they are very comfortable. They are exactly what I was looking for!

Nice shoe. Love not lacing up, just slip 'em on. They are great for chillin', loafing around in style, and you can skate in them, too. Most people don't skate, they just like the skate style.

I am 45 years young and still off the wall. These black and white check Vans Classic slip on have been on my feet since the 1980 somethings. Zappos.com made them easy to find and pay for. They even came early how cool is that. Zappos.com is where you go when you need the wright shoes.

These remain great shoes. Just a note, they feel about half a size smaller than Converse All Stars. I don't know which shoe is closer to average (it could be that Converse feel half a size bigger than most shoes), which is why I'm noting my size comparison.

I bought of pair of the kids' ones for my son and my husband had slip on Vans so I felt left out. I've never worn Vans before so I decided to try them out. I bought them in b/w (my favorite colors) and I love them! I want to wear them everyday! I bought the wrong size and Zappos had the new size sent to me the next day! I would definitely recommend these shoes and this website!

Love Vans, this is my 2nd pair of the slip-on. They are classic casual daily wear shoes for me that bring me back to my youthful skate days. I got this style because it matches my GTI's interior, did they plan that? I don't know, but when I was looking, I thought it was a funny sign or something. They are actually pretty understated, compared with the check style. I end up getting a 1/2 size larger and use inserts to make them a bit more comfortable. They are flat otherwise. Great buy for young and old.

It's been more than 20 years since I've owned a pair of Vans slip ons. These brought back all the memories from the 80s when I wore them in high school. They are just as light weight and comfortable as I remember. Now I just need to resist the temptation to "thrash" at a local skate park.

What is there to say really? This is classic shoe. Purple is a hot color, and these look great dressed up with a pair of skinny-legged dress pants or dressed down with some cut-off jean shorts.

This is a great pair of stylish shoes. I have really wide feet, but because they're canvas and really flexible, I can wear them all day without blistering up my toes. If you do a ton of walking or standing, they can start wear on you because there's not much padding, but they're overall very comfortable. I was completely blown away at how much better I was able to skateboard in these. The grip is unreal, both on my board and on the ground. Never thought there would be anything so special about skate shoes, trust me, there is.

Comfortable, stylish shoe. Had to get a half size smaller than what I usually wear, but I find different brands and styles run a little different, so no big deal. And as always, Zappos customer service was great and shipping was fast.

Bought these for my son who never takes them off! He loves that he can slip them on without socks and go- they are sturdy enough that he can do games at recess and he is hinting for another pair in red!

First off, this was an insane shipping turnaround from Zappos. I decided last night that I was going to return a pair of Converse Jack Purcells that were a bit too snug and decided to pick up a pair of these Vans. This was around 9:30pm. I immediately receive an email confirmation that Zappos has upgraded my shipping. Shoes were at my doorstep before noon today. Flat out crazy turnaround. Onto the shoes. I'm digging these much more than the Cons. Much more comfortable and definitely fit true to size unlike the Cons.

My niece brought you site to my attention as she was looking at a pair of shoes she wanted, the Vans slip-on. The ordering process couldn't have been easier, and the delivery couldn't have been quicker. She is thrilled with them and was so happy to have received them within 3 days after I ordered them. I would highly recommend Zappos to anyone.

These shoes are great. They are much more comfortable than I was expecting, and they get a lot of compliments. Simple/elegant styling. I got them in the black on black, so they go great with everything. I’m usually around a size 11, and the 10.5 is perfect, so maybe order a half size down than your usual.

This is the second pair of shoes I have ordered from Zappos and I am never disappointed. They always provide the fastest shipping ever as I received them the next day after purchase. The shoes are absolutely lovely and perfectly match my new purse. They are comfortable and felt true to size. The price was fair to. I will continue to buy from Zappos in the future. Thank you Zappos!

I love these shoes! They were a little tight when I first bought them (I usually wear an 8 or 9, I ordered these in a 9), but they’ve stretched out some and are very comfortable now. The colors are very unique and cute. Great shoes! My only advice would be to order them bigger than your normal shoe size.

Love Van's slip-ons. Didn't start wearin' them until I was almost 40. Most comfortable shoes ever.This pair has a cool design. Wish Van's would bring back the Slayer slip-ons. My last pair is destroyed (but still cool).

I love these shoes, this is the third pair I have owned and I wear them until they fall apart which fortunately takes at least 5 years! This pair has gotten quite a few comments due to the color and pattern. They are my favorite of the three I have purchased and my current favorite of all the shoes I own. I wouldn't be without a pair of the original Van's slip-ons!

Awesome shoes! First time trying Vans Classic Slip-ons after checking out a pair from a friend. These shoes are awesome! Comfortable and easy to get on and off. They go well with just about anything, casual, dress up or dress down. Not a lot of arch, but I’m flat footed so perfect for me. I usually wear a 12 in Nike sneakers, but 11.5 in the Vans is a perfect fit for me. And goes without saying, Zappos lighting speed delivery and great customer service is an added plus. Have received multiple compliments from friends and family alike. In fact, since buying this black pair, have gone back and ordered two more pairs in different colors and styles and definitely will order more. These shoes rock! And so does Zappos!

Got my new Vans just in time for summer. These are the most comfortable shoes. Always light and true fitting, whether skating to north beach or catching a cubs game. Great shoes.
