Fit like the rest of my high top vans which I always size up half size to an 8. Did not like the “leather”? Lining around the collar inside. There is no cushioning like I was hoping for like my comfy cush sk8 high tops from 2 years ago. So sad they discontinued comfy cush. Was a lightweight shoe and more comfy.

Initial impression we're good. I saw another review say these are good for a more narrow foot and I agree with that observation. Fit and finish seems good. These are getting a mark down from me because I want to swap out the insoles for a different ones and the original insoles are glued in ans I can't get them out with destroying the shoe. Like WTF, people like different insole, Vans.

Vans SK8-Hi core classics are true to length but have no arch support. They are thin and have little padding around the ankles.
I'd also recommend:
Nike

Solid shoe but dear god they are difficult to put on. Takes everything I've got to put my foot in. Invest in a shoe horn if you get these.

I love the color but this pair seems poorly constructed compared to my other pairs of Sk8 Hi's. Makes me sad. I love Sk8 Hi's in bright colors.

Should have been a 5 star review. Because the shoe is nice came in good condition and fits like a glove but when I went to re-lace I noticed that it had two different sized laces. Not a big problem but kind of in inconvenience I shouldn't have to deal with because now I have to go fined a new pair of laces that are the same sizs

Just as the title says, the boxes have taken a serious beating prior to being shipped. I love vans but I was very disappointed with this order.

I love the color but this shoe isn't meant to be worn if you're walking a lot.

I love the shoes but immediately gave blisters and had to apply moleskin for comfort.

Super Cute shoes. Wish they were clean to start. Not worth the time or $ shipping them back. Laces had oil marks on them and sole was dirty.

I've been wearing vans since high school and maybe it's me, but they are so uncomfortable now! One 8 hour shift in these and my feet hurt so bad! The comfy cush soles are better, but I don't understand why vans insists on selling the uncomfortable version as well. How do people even skate in these? Skate shoes are designed to absorb shock. Not these bad boys.

It's a nice shoe. I didn't keep it, but it's a nice shoe. It just wasn't what I had in mind when I purchased it.

Not a fit for me, and way too squeaky a sound while walking.

The new style is eh, I can't wear them anymore because of the way the leather curves down the side is uncomfortable, I personally also feel it looks kinda weird and the extra stitching on the toe of the shoe seems unnecessary. At least they still feel quality, better than converse for sure. I miss the old style for both brands. I, unfortunately, won't be buying them again, but if you can stand how they fit and, unlike me, don't think they look bulky and kinda dumb, they'll probably last you a nice long time.

I got these shoes for my boyfriend, they look great, but offer ZERO support. The bottoms are completely flat and uncomfortable, he will need insoles.

I bought these to replace the same ones I've had for 3 years. I've had 4 other Vans in different styles going back 10 years, all 11.5. I ordered the same size, but it was obvious when I tried them on that they were too big. I went to the local Vans Store and tried an 11.0 in the same style, and they fit like my old ones. It's disappointing that sizing can't stay consistent, especially when ordering online.

My daughter loves the look and fit of these shoes but they are difficult to put on and take off because of the grippiness of the interior vinyl lining

For what they are, they're nice shoes. The fit is comfortable but the color bleeds excessively onto the shoelaces and other fabrics.
