Customer Reviews Vans SK8-Hi™ Core Classics

Kick ass old skool sk8 shoe - Takes a while to break em in, but overall a great shoe.

Big kid - Skated in these when I was a little kid, must have been '84. 20 years later, still the coolest.

Vans rock! These old school vans remind me of my high school days in the 80's. I love these shoes and I will no doubt buy some more in other colors. These tennies have plenty of width.

Best Skate Shoes I've Ever Worn. These are the ultimate skate shoe. Comfortable, great grip, and safe for your ankles. Only reason I gave them a 4 for look is because the 3 rows of stitches at the ankle. They dont look very cool. Their so great for skating and just walking around, I'm gonna buy more of these in the future. If you skateboard, buy 'em now.

Always VANS - Point, click, shoes arrive. This isn't the first time I've ordered from Zappos.com and it won't be the last. Best of all, they expedited my order and my shoes arrived *extra* early. That didn't suck at all. More Vans please. Thanks, Zappos.com.

Great item especially for me with wide feet. I have several Vans and these fit the best!!!

Nice old school vans just like I remember them but seem slightly smaller than I remembered but that happens when you measure a Chinese foot compared to an American.

Great shoe! Very comfortable and stylish. I love the black suede and once they're on they fit like a glove. My only criticism of this shoe is it's difficult to put on, being being that they're close fitting high tops. It is a chore to get them on your feet but once you do they're awesome.

I love the look of these shoes, and they have great ankle support for those of us with injured ankles. The insole is the weak point, they have no padding or support. I ripped the glued insoles out and replaced them with sorbothane insoles and they are worlds better. They are inexpensive and the quality somewhat reflects this but still a good deal for the money. They run a full size or more too small.

As much as I love the look of these Vans, they never last. These were my second pair, I bought them in May 2020 & it's now mid-Dececember 2020. They only lasted about 7 months. I work in an office, and I walk about 2 miles, 5 times a week, but they're already discolored & torn in spots. Keep that in mind when ordering.

I will keep this short. Vans are crap. Sure, they look pretty cool on your feet, but damn are they poorly made. I have had my pair since about 20 days and they are already falling apart. I alternate shoes daily dammit! These shoes are pure garbage. The sad thing is I will probably buy them again because they are pretty stylish.

I haven't worn Vans in over 20 years and after wearing these for about a month, I don't think I will purchase any more Vans. These really feel cheap. I bought them to replace a pair of Pumas with worn out soles. The old Pumas feel better constructed than the new Vans. The Vans cost less than most, but they just feel poorly made.

Been wearing Vans since the 80's. I'm a size 14, but Zappos always has my size in stock. Their customer service is beyond incredible. Had a manufacture issue wish my last order. Resolved with one phone call. Thanks, Z. Looking forward to more from you.

Got these for myself and I love them. Sleek, stylish, goes with any outfit and convenient.

Good fit, little bigger, but that's how I like my kicks, since I have wide feet. Overall great sneakers! Especially for lifting

I absolutely Luv Vans. I’ve never bought this particular style before & it was suggested to go up a half size. I went up a half size & was glad I did. Perfect fit. Soooo...if you’re going with this style go up a half size.

The shoes fit perfectly! And it’s comfortable to walk in.

I like these shoes! They're sleek, black, and SURPRISINGLY cozy! Once they're laced up, the shoe hugs your foot all over and it doesn't move! Trying these things on for the first time, is like trying on Saiyan battle armor; it initially looks like it's gonna be too small, but once it's on, it fits perfectly.

Love these shoes! Im a womens 7 and bought a mens 5.5 and fits perfect! I bought 2 pairs they look so cute!

My son normally wears a 10, but we ended up getting these in a 9 after trying a 9 1/2 and a 10 and they were both too big.

True to size and pretty comfy. I guess some are having issues with lacing but I did not have any issues. I taught wearing these all day and my feet didn't hurt much.

True to size.
