Customer Reviews Vans SK8-Hi

These are great skate shoes with excellent ankle support and very adequate cushioning. The color bleeds on these, your white socks will be darkened by the sneaker's colors and the laces will also get dirty very fast from the sneaker itself while the rubber around the sneaker grabs dirt incredibly fast, but you look like you have been skating for hours and who could knock and complain about that look? And these boys are super stylish. What a deal!

These are great skate shoes with excellent ankle support. Flexible sneaker to help those of us with wider feet. The white rubber and the white laces grab dirt quickly, but do not worry, that does not impact the sneaker's functionality and adds a cool look making these true eye catchers.

These are comfortable and cool. The ankle support is great, the white rubber and the white laces catch dirt very quickly, but do not impact the function nor integrity of the shoes.

Love these! I originally went with the sk8 slim but realized they were cut more narrow. I like more toe room so I exchanged them for these and am in love with them. They are the most comfy shoes I own and Zappos customer service never disappoints! I normally wear between and 8.5-9 women's in sneakers and ordered the 7 and they fit perfect with a little space to wiggle my toes!

Finally pulled the trigger on these high tops after always skating low tops my whole life. When you lace these up properly and snug, you really feel the ankle support when skating. The nice thing about these is the Ollie area has a nice wide piece of suede that is super durable so you won't be ripping any panels. The thing I didn't like is during this summer, I sweated a lot in these shoes, more than any other shoe I've ever worn. The suede tongue bled into the laces and they turned green. It added character to the shoe and I didn't mind that much, but I've never seen this happen to any other vans I've worn. I mainly wear Old Skool's and the tongue on those is canvas so maybe that's why. In conclusion, if you love vans and want to try something different these are what you need. They're durable and last longer than some of their other styles.

#1 - I got these in a flash! Zappos is on it. #2 Much older now, but I had these when I was a teenager and very active skate boarder. These Sk8's still rock. Super comfortable right out of the box. Far superior to other brands twice their price. They seem to run a comfortable 1/4 size larger. I am 8.5, and that's the size I ordered, and the fit is great. So glad I stumbled onto this blast from the past. Now it's time to go build another half-pipe out back!

I ordered a pair in blue, they look great (shoes may look awkward on my feet at times, I wear size 14 shoes). They fit great, but Vans shoes don't have the cushioning of, say Nike SB shoes. Either way they're great. I'm gonna get a black pair.

I usually wear an 8.5 or 9 but wear an 8 in these shoes. As expected they have little support or luxurious cushion but I find them comfy and keep my feet cool in the warmer weather.

My 16 year old niece requested these sneakers and I sent them to her a month ago. She told me she loves them and has worn them every day since shed got them. So I presume perfect for teens.

I've bought the same style and color SK8 classic since the early 90s. A great casual sneaker for everyday wearing once you get too old to skate anymore.

I purchased these and was absolutely in love. Not one issue with them at all. They also stretch a little with wear but for me that was not a problem. Some reviews said they run big but I found for me they were perfect. They also look great and go with everything. I was so happy I decided to get them in all white as well! Definitely won't regret these.

I recently purchased a pair of Vans Sk8-Hi Tennis shoes. I am very satisfied with width and support on my ankles. They are very comfortable. The shoes are not made for long distance walking. Overall I am satisfied with the shoes.

Great price - really impressed with shipping. I was nervous I would not get these in time for Birthday Gift. Exceeded my expectations. Thank you Zappos.

Style I love. It did seem a little bigger. I am a 6 1/2 and I ordered a 6 and it is still a little big and roomy. It is comfortable and better than having it tight. Overall I love them! They go with anything I wear.

These hi-tops are very stylish and comfortable shoes. The only thing I would tell people looking to go with the 'True White' color, is that these shoes are very easily stained. Streak marks, coffee, dirt, etc. are all hard to get out once they've gotten on the canvas material. I stained mine a few weeks ago and wasn't able to get the spot to remove completely, so be careful when wearing these around liquids and other things. Otherwise, very amazing shoes.

These are my favorite go-to sneakers. They accommodate my wide feet without being too tight. They don't have as much arch support as a running shoe, but that's how I like it. I wear a 7.5-8 in womens shoes, so I order these in a size 6 mens, and they fit great. I wait tables and wear them almost every day and they last for about a year before it's time for a fresh pair.

These shoes are awesome. they look great too. Takes a little time to break in but once they're broken in they feel so comfy and secure.

My 14-year-old loves this shoe. The checkered pattern makes it really stand out in a cool way. He was initially concerned that the ankle was pretty stiff, but it doesn't seem to cause him any problems. He doesn't run in these shoes; he uses a different pair for running in PE and when he's playing. However, he wears them on his skateboard and at school.

I usually wear an 8 1/2 and that's what I ordered but they seemed about a half size big. They really didn't have much arch support but when I put some inserts in they fit well enough and were comfortable. I like the clean lines and simple look.

Awesome classic. Great skate shoe. Great for my narrow feet. Usual 14s were a little small. Got 15s too but a huge difference between the two sizes.

Great shoes, fit perfectly, look so cool and retro. An amazing thing, which is more about Zappos than these shoes, is that they arrived ONE DAY after I ordered them! I was so in need on of these awesome shoes, and like magic they arrived so quickly! And free shipping! Could Zappos be any cooler?!

Dope shoe. After a while, they start to become uncomfortable on your feet, if you wear them often.

My son loves it, and it fits. It arrived before its schedule, because my son wore out his shoes and was waiting for this one, so I am happy it came before it. It got a little trouble in the beginning, but I was satisfy by how Zappos dealt with it this time, UPS delayed to pick up my order, Zappos partially refunded me and told me they would follow it when I contacted their staff to tell the situation. So, I am going to buy my son another basketball shoe, but they ran out of stock, hope they will have it again soon.

These are some great classic sneakers. Will always look cool. Since these are the official Paul Walker kicks, I wanted to get these more than ever as a remembrance.

The shoe was what I expected. It was a gift and came right on time. No complaints at all. Love the service Zappos provides.
