I bought these for my daughter and she did not even have them for 2 months when the fabric started to tear by the little toe. The quality should have been a lot better for the price I paid. I love Vans shoes and own several pairs, but the fabric on these white check ones is so thin and cheap. Not worth the price.

I just wanted an easy slip on shoe for casual wear. It is really cute and a nice color selection. They just have no cushion in the insole and no arch support. I'm at a place in life where comfort means more than style. They are going back.

Nice looking shoe. I always wanted a pair. However, although I always wear a 13, my toe touches the front of the shoe and I could not wear these. I would say order 1/2 to one full size larger.

Hi Folks, I bought the Vans Classic Slip-On™ Core Classics and the lace-up versions too. They were too narrow for my feet. My pinky-toe was hurting... I talked to Van's and they said to buy the 'Skate' versions of these shoes. So, I did and guess what? The 'skate' versions are wider and I don't have any more issues... Funny thing though, Zappo's has both types labeled as 'medium D' or something. But, the skate versions are definitely wider. They also come with inserts that give you more support and are more comfortable. And they're about the same price!

Love this style but not a good fit for me, the top came up too far. However, excellent customer service with making return and refund!! Will go back to a lace up Van.

Absolutely love the shoes - but the instep is too tight. I could barely get my feet into them. The length & width are fine - but just too tight on my instep and heel. Hoping they stretch a little over time.

I absolutely love these shoes. I would wear them 24/7.... however, they run about a 1/2 size smaller than all my other Vans. I don’t know what happened. Wore them in Vegas and I have black toenails/bloody blisters. Super bummed. My other Vans are perfect walking shoes.

Cute for everyday wear, although I did remove the elastic pieces to accommodate my high instep. Some if the interior stitching rubs on the top of my foot, so I probably would not buy another pair.

Color was great but it was big and heavy. Basically, your typical Vans shoes.

I recently had my feet measured for a pair of running shoes, and was told I was exactly a size 9. In spite of that, in recent years, I've had to order shoes that have been reviewed as fitting too big. A half size up, is almost always too big. I was hoping, that being a uni-sex shoe, it would be a little more generous in sizing.. They were so small and tight, I couldn't even get them on my feet!

The reviews said it was true to size, so ordered my normal size a woman’s 8. I had to use a shoe horn to get the shoe on, then it was so tight, I couldn’t pull the shoe horn out of the shoe. I am returning for a half size larger, maybe that will help.

The shoe was way too narrow and very hard to get on. Not good for wide feet. Too bad because the shoe is a great color/design. It was the black and grey checkerboard

These shoes are cute and I really wanted to like them, but I struggled to get them on. Mind you, my feet are not wide. Once on, my heels slipped a bit. And unfortunately they made my feet appear shapeless, flat, and unnaturally long.

Ordered these for my hubs. They look so classic and cool. I wish they had worked out, but after wearing around the house he said they were too narrow and tight across he feet. Oh well! Thanks for your easy returns, Zappos!

Concerned about the amount of hair (looks like dog or cat) on the shoes I received. I normally expect none.

Weirdest thing. Have owned and worn several pairs of Van’s Classic Slip-Ons over the years, but never have the elastic areas felt like sharp Velcro. I am putting off the hassle of returning (I like how they look and otherwise fit) by applying electrical tape over the sharp areas. It quite literally made scrapes/injuries on feet. Has anyone else ever experienced this? Is this because of the particular material used on the black style? Like I said, very weird and a major flaw. Attaching photos for perspective, but the problem can’t really be seen because they’re black.

My shoe size is typically an 8.5 so I bought these in 8.5 as well, they are very narrow and there is no wiggle room in the size

I was so bummed when I put these on. I definitely ordered the wrong size. I ordered a 6 and I’m usually a 6.5
I don’t know what I was thinking!!
