This pair of vans felt a tad bit smaller than a previous pair of vans I had. Love the look and style of them. I have received many compliments on them.

This shoe was way too large for my heels and slipped horribly. I purchased the correct size for the length of my foot, but this style of shoe does not work for a narrow foot. Too bad since they’re really cute.

Bought these shoes for my husband. He wears a size 12. These shoes were too small. I returned and ordered size 13. We will see if they fit. Otherwise, great looking shoes.

I love vans slip ons! The colors on these metallic vans are perfect for what I was wanting! A little stiff, but that was to be expected because of the type of material the shoe is made of!

These shoes run big. I usually wear a 7 and had to end up getting a 6 to fit. Other than that, great shoes.

Very cute! However, you will have to “break” these shoes in before they are comfortable. My checkered vans are broken in and very comfortable, and I ordered these the exact same size as my other ones yet these felt more snug on my foot. They are a tad difficult to get into, but hopefully they will stretch and become more comfortable when I wear them more. Overall pretty cute shoes!

Affordable slip on with a nice luxurious touch. Got compliments on this fancy version of the popular classic Vans. Can make plenty of dress down and dress up outfits with this!

Love the look of these Vans. They are a perfect neutral. However, I have a high instep so this one in particular didn’t fit well (they are somewhat of a leather on the outside?) but the true classic vans fit perfectly. Will be returning but would have kept them if they didn’t hurt the top of my foot!

I'm glad that Vans are back in style for everybody, including adults, because I desperately need a structured flat shoe when I'm not wearing my work stilettos. I ordered a 6.5 (my normal size) but my heels were coming out of them when I moved around since I typically don't wear socks in my slip-ons. I exchanged for a 6 (with great, super speedy service from rep. Xyleena) and they fit perfectly. Since these are canvas shoes that stretch, I think it's also good to account for a shift in size that will likely happen.
tl;dr, shoe fits big if you have narrow feet or are not wearing socks, also could potentially stretch, so consider ordering down a half size.
I'd also recommend:

Ignore the stars. I didn't even get these shoes on.
They seem like fine shoes but do not come close to fitting with my very high instep. Zappos made the return simple and easy.

These were really cute, unfortunately I sent them back because they made my size 9 feet look enormous. I just couldn’t get past how big my feet looked compared to my body (and I’m not a short woman).

Ive been wearing these for awhile now. This is my third pair of vans and my second pair of slip ons. I had a pair of canvas slip ons first and I wear a size 5.5/7 which is a 1/2 size smaller than I wear in the lace up style otherwise they would slip off my heels. This pair I ordered the leather ones and just assumed I would wear the same size but that wasnt the case. The 5.5 were too big, they were the same size as my lace up 6s. I has to send them back for a 5. They aren’t as comfortable as my canvas pair. The canvas ones got soft and are very flexible. The leather is much stiffer and doesnt bend as well so they still slip a bit off my heel even though they are the right size now. They are also not as comfortable where your foot bends when you walk either. Its just the leather. I would stick with the canvas in this style.

This is regards to the Oversized Herringbone color specifically. The heel cup was much more open in this style than it is in the usual colors (I've owned several in grey, checkerboard, and blue which all fit much better), causing my heel to pop out with every step. The length is correct and same as my old pair but unfortunately this color wouldn't work for my foot.

These shoes were comfortable from the moment I put them on (just as all my Vans slip-on classics). I ordered this suede pair as they were the only red slip ons I saw offered. There aren’t a true red but more of a dusty rose-red. I’m hoping the suede will last longer than canvas. One disappointment is that every drop of anything that lands on the suede creates a spot. The shoes are super comfy and the rose-red color is pretty.
