I bought these for my son at his request. They are the only shoes he will wear...so comfortable, in style. And affordable.

The perfect fit every time. Starts out snug then wears to perfection. Only downside is I end up wearing them so much I wear them out in a few months and my other shoes get left in the closet! They are a classic for a reason.

My son was very pleased with these. They look just like the picture and seem to be true to size. Shipping was super fast, especially since it was very close to Christmas when they were ordered. I'd definitely order these shoes again and I will be ordering from Zappos!

I purchased these as a Xmas gift for my daughter-in-law. The were what she asked for and they did fit since she wore them home from our house. The web site was easy to order from and I received my order in a few days (faster than I thought, since it was the week before Xmas). I would highly recommend your store and site.

Gotta love the original Vans slippy...this one is nice with the black sole, because it doesn't get all marked up when you kick things. The black canvas shows a lot of lint/dog hair, but it is easy to dust off. I would like to see more styles available with the black sole!

It took about 10days to break-in. After that the shoe was comfortable to wear. Will definitely buy again.

Got these for my son in law and loved them. Even wore a pink shirt to match. Who would have thought he would want the pink.

These were a Christmas gift for my husband! They are perfect! Run true to size, and he's worn them every day since he got them. Couldn't be happier.

I am 60 and these are my go to shoes for comfort and ease of putting on. I wish I had discovered them years ago. I do add an extra arch support as my arches now lay on the floor. :)

Love these shoes! I have worn them everyday since I bought them. The sole is coming apart from the shoe but I believe it's because I have worn them so much.

These do require a little bit of breaking in to soften up, but not heaps, and then they are the comfiest shoe, ever. I've had my checkered pair for over 10 years and they just look better the more beaten up they become. I feel like they're a pretty classic shoe, comparable to Converse, in that they will never really "go out of style". I wear mine with mini dresses, sweats, cut-offs, etc. I'm typically a size 7-8 and wear these in a 7.5, so I'd say they run maybe half a size larger for those of us with a narrow/flat foot.

I have a very high arch so tend to stay with laces, but I'm lazy enough to look around. It took me forever to get them on, but the length was fine. I want something to just jump into and run quick errands and I thought these would fit the bill, plus the solid black looks sharp. They were very comfortable once on. I can tell already that they will stretch, especially after spritzing with water and sticking baseballs in to help. I'm hoping I can get them on with socks soon. So if you have a high arch, I think that you will be able to make them work. Warning though, if you have pets, you will get the usual fur covered tops you get with everything else ! Never get a break with pet hair, but they are worth it (the pets).

Great classic Van's! The color is exactly as it shows in the picture. My son is thrilled with them. Fits true to size for him...his foot is an 8 and that is what I ordered.

I ordered two pairs of these to try the sizes. I opted to keep the smaller pair so they would fit snugly without any play; some slip-ons will loosen in and then slide around on your feet. But the sizing is pretty accurate - so order the size you already wear. There is a seam right on the heal of these shoes that I had to "wear in". I'd recommend wearing these shoes in the evenings only for the first week to break them in if yours irritate your heel. I get compliments on them quite a bit. I'd recommend wearing them with a down vest and a long sleeve flannel shirt and jeans in the early fall before the snow. Women have literally thrown themselves at me when I'm strutting this secret weapon.

Have used this shoe for work and casual for years. I work 38-60 hours a week depending on the time of the year and I walk/bike to work so I'm on my feet a lot. Go through 2 pairs a year. To me that's a great deal. My girlfriend says I have flat feet and that's why I like them. I used to swap between chucks and slip on vans and while i still do sometimes these are my clear cut favorites. Love buying from zappos too. Easy and super quick free shipping!

I totally love these shoes for comfort and convenience. In my opinion, they have a nice appearance for casual looks, too. The only suggestion I would make is that if you are going to be standing on a hard surface or walking a long way, then an insole will be a good idea, since this is designed to be a lightweight, thin soled shoe.

I live overseas, coming back to the states twice a year. Each time I order a fresh pair of Van's Slip-Ons to be waiting for me upon my arrival. I simply love these shoes, and expect to be wearing them for the rest of my days. They are wonderfully comfortable right out of the box, and typically don't cause blisters with during the first few days of wear. The only drawback to the Slip-Ons is that they tend to wear quickly and can get a bit smelly for no-socks types. The solution here is to just buy a new pair, and enjoy the fresh out of the box experience all over again. As per Zappos service, what can I say? It's never anything but satisfying.

This was one of my first purchases and from Zappos. I ordered this shoe along with 7 other clothing items on Saturday about 12:00pm EDT. The whole order showed up at my front door on Monday at about 1:30pm. I wasn't expecting to get the order until the next day, Tuesday, since I placed it on a Saturday. Needless to say I was quite impressed with the service and shipping as well as there being no charge for the shipping. The shoe(s) is fantastic! These were made famous while I was in high school in the mid 80 's by the movie Fast Times at Ridgemont High and Spicolli's black & white version of the shoe. I love the red & black as well as the quality and fit of the shoe. It 's a great, comfortable slip on canvas shoe you can wear socks with or w/out. A tad stiff for the first day so far but I know they will loosen up as they are worn because I had the b&w version in high school and it seems as if Vans has not changed a thing in 29 years. After ordering these I placed a 2nd order the same day for the black & dark grey checker board pattern which are due to come in today. They were also on sale too but I would have gladly paid full price! Shoe's are highly recommended but I would order a half size larger if you're not positive your regular size will fit perfectly as they can be a little snug and require a shoe horn until they get loosened up a bit. My first experience with Zappo's and I am blown away with their selection of item's, the service and the nice surprise of getting the biggest order earlier than expected. I actually placed three order's Saturday because I kept finding something else I wanted after submitting each order. I can see that a lot of my money will be going their way in the future as long as they continue to operate the way are currently. They also have a 365 day return policy which is unheard of these days so you can 't go wrong. I am very, very pleased with my initial shopping experience! Don't change a thing Zappos!

I love these shoes! The fit is perfect and they are so comfortable. The pink soles are also fun. I wish the other Core Classics shoes had colored soles as well! If you are hesitant about buying shoes from any site other than the Vans site, don't be. The quality and sizing on Zappos is spot-on. In fact, I bought another pair of Vans at a Vans outlet store instead of on this website and the sizing was weird. I saved a little money, but I compromised a perfect fit. Never again!
I ordered these shoes in the wrong size and customer service did a flawless, quick exchange. I got the right size within two days. Best customer service ever!

My child wanted these in both red and black; some days he feels the need to wear one of each! Loves them.
