It doesn't get any more classic than this when it comes to men's street footwear. Wear as is with a pair of jeans or throw on some tube socks and rock the sk8-hi's in some above-the-knee shorts. These kicks are like Jennifer Aniston. They absolutely get better with age.

Old skool Vans are what they are, nothing new to add. I like them, they fit my feet well and I like to style.
I continue to be impressed by Zappos, they are on point with customer service and lightning fast shipping. Thanks Zappos, you've got a customer for life.

These shoes are awesome! I love them. They are my favorite sneakers right now. There is nothing wrong with them at all and really the only annoying thing about them is that they are sometimes hard to slip on so you might want to get one of those shoe horns to help you slide them in. GET THESE THEY ARE DOPE!

Best pair sneakers I've ever bought, hands down. They're a little hard to get on if you lace them tight at all, but it's not a big deal. I've worn them everyday since I bought them a month-month and a half ago, and they're holding up great.

Vans are the only shoes I wear beyond flip flops. The Classic are exactly that, just like they were 1988 when I first started wearing 'em for skating. There's no other shoe brand that exists that satisfies the taste of this nearly 40 year old dude.

The Vans store at the local mall didn't have these shoes (I mean come on!) and Vans online charges nearly a ton for shipping. Zappos had my size, the same price and free shipping.

I haven't had these shoes very long. They're a little stiff and may take a little while to break in. That being said, I love these shoes! I love the look and once I put some arch supports in them, they are very comfortable. I like the ankle support. However, if you have a bulky foot, these are not for you. I have long, skinny feet and these kicks fit my skis perfectly.

These shoes fit me very well. In a size 7, they are about a quarter inch longer than the Vans Slip-Ons, and slightly wider. I love their looks and they are very comfortable. Highly recommended.

Shipment was quick and exchange was flawless and easy. I needed a half size larger than what was ordered, and Zappos made it very easy to exchange. Very nice shoe!

Great all around shoe. Comfy right out of the box and gets better with time. Classic style that offers a bit more than Chuck Taylors. I have wide feet and these accommodated them well.

These shoes were ordered for my college age son and he loves them - wears them daily. They are true to size and very comfortable for campus walking.

I love to shop at Zappos. They have a great selection and they stock large sizes. My grandson wears a size 17 and they are very hard to find in in a shoe a teenager likes. Zappos has styles he likes and they ship very fast. Love it!

I purchased the Vans SK8-Hi Core Classics for my son-in-law. These have long been his favorite shoe for years and the longevity should tell you why! They are a great shoe and hold up like no other! The look is a constant plus as well!

Comfortable and great colors. I get compliments (nice kicks) from Gen Y each time I wear them - I'm 41. You can only find these at Zappos. The Vans retail stores only carry the black with white and you can purchase these at Vans.com but you will pay more with shipping. They look great so don't hesitate to buy the Sk8 - yeah Booooy!

So, these shoes are pretty rad. I was turned on to them because a friend had mentioned to me what durable shoes they are whether you skate or not. Anyhow, I ordered them about 7 days before my bands tour because my converse were thrashed and I got sick of the easy-to-beat-up Chuck's. Zappos got these shoes to me in merely four days, so I even got to break 'em in a bit before I left. I use them for yard work, sports, and even my job because it's easy to simply dust them off (I wait tables and they're not thrashed enough yet for my boss to complain). I recommend these shoes for anyone who likes to wear high tops and especially recommend anyone to buy them from Zappos!

Best ever -
I got these, my first pair of real hi-tops since I was a kid. They turn heads, and they’re just nice. I am vegetarian, and am glad the true white was the one they kept as synthetic materials and canvas, cuz otherwise I’d be crying. The hi-top tongue can start to droop and bend a bit, digging into your foot, which is the only drawback. I’m getting used to it though.

Finally got me some Vans -
I've wanted a pair of Vans ever since I saw my first skateboard mag 20+ yrs ago. For one reason or another, never got around to purchasing a pair. Now that I’m back into skateboarding, decided to finally take the plunge and I've learned a few things about Vans. They're great for lounging around and taking short trips, comfy enough to wear all day though. They're not ideal for skating mostly due to lack of support the newer skate shoe styles provide. Oh, they're not ideal for long walking trips either I walked to sightsee all over Rome, Italy, but my dogs were cursing me out when I got back to my hotel.
Otherwise, they're great. Besides, nothing says "Cali-skater-cool" like a pair of old school Vans!

Reliable as always...
Been wearing Vans since the 80's, one of my favorite brands and with the selection of styles that match my activity. And as always, Zappos.com had them at my front door within a few days.
