They were incredibly narrow even though I supposedly ordered the wide.

very poorly constructed shoe. this shoe was bought for a very active 8 yo (men 6.5) @ Christmas 2017. By Feb 6th 2018 the shoes already had a hole rubbed in the back of the shoe and the insole did not stay in place when removing his shoes. Thankfully Zappos has an AWESOME return policy! Thanks

Worst pair of shoes I’ve ever purchased!
Too narrow... I couldn’t even get one on with a sock so I removed my sock and it still was impossible to get this shoe on, despite I wear an 8.5 shoe and this was a size 9.

My son struggled to get this shoe on his foot. So I tried, and had a difficult time as well. We didn't bother putting on the other shoe. Who needs a struggle when putting on shoes? We ordered a half size above the size he's wearing and a size above his true size.

These are classic! They look so fresh on my feet. Super comfortable. Lots of compliments. You really can't go wrong with these.

These were great shoes until the lining above the toes detached within just a few months, making them too uncomfortable to wear.

Truly the most ill fitting, uncomfortable I've owned in the last 10 years. I don't understand how anyone could find these shoes comfortable.

I love the style and comfort of this sneaker however I do not love that they are poorly made. I have had the shoes for less than 1 month (10 wears tops) and I have worn a hole through my right shoe and the left is coming soon.

The fit was terrible. It seemed ok at first and so I wore them on vacation but I should have packed different shoes. After a while the shoe was scraping against my heel so badly that I was bleeding. I had to add tissues in the heel as padding in order to tolerate it. Unfortunately I can't return them now but they are worse than useless to me, so someone will get them cheap from Goodwill. YMMV but for me these were some of the worst shoes I ever bought in terms of fit.

Why can't Vans just make women's shoes, instead of men's shoes that have women's sizes as a second thought? I ordered a "Men's 5, Women's 6.5" since 6.5 is my usual size. These are still WAY too big and too wide. Turns out the normal width for a men's shoe is the same as a wide size for a women's shoe. It would've been helpful to know that beforehand... or you know, Vans could start making actual women's shoes.

They certainly look like the correct length and width, but I've never encountered this before; I literally cannot get my foot in the shoe! The opening isn't big enough and the elastic barely stretches. It's really strange since my Authentic Vans fit like a dream.

I received this shoe today and was very disappointed. The shoe looks to have been warn, maybe it was a return. The inside is stained, the outside rubber is chipped, the vans label on the back is rubbed off and the white material on the shoe is discolored. I am disappointed in Zappos for sending out a product in this condition.

These shoes are VERY narrow. I normally prefer EE or 4E shoes because I have wide feet. I ordered a .5 size up from what I normally wear and I couldn't even get this on my foot!

Absolutely loved these for the first 3 days. Then, they began to tear off the skin on my heels. Yes, I was wearing socks. Ordered another pair of shoes from another maker and no more heel problems. I really hate them. They were an expensive way to cause myself damage.

Ordered these in size 8.5 and I received two right shoes, 1 size 8.5 and the other size 10! Usually have good luck with Zappos, but not this time. :(

I do not usually review products but this one really deserves my attention. I just received them today, and really liked them for the first five seconds, until I put them on. The seams inside literally scratch my feet. I am not sure if they are all like this, but mine have sharp edged seams inside. That is horrible. I am returning them.

While happy with Zappos' Customer Service response to this issue, not happy with the quality of my recent Vans order. Literally just a couple of wears and the shoes are already falling apart.

Nice looking shoes, at a reasonable price, but I can't comment on anything else about them, because I couldn't get them on. My size is a men's 8.5, which is what I ordered, but I could not even get my foot inside the shoe. I will send them back (Zappos has a great return policy), but I'm not sure if I'll order the same shoe in a bigger size, or a different shoe altogether.
If you order, be aware that they run very small, not true to size.

The first thing I noticed was that these Vans were incredibly tight. So tight that, even without socks, I had to use a shoehorn to wedge them onto my feet. I'm an 11.5 in nearly every brand, from Adidas sneakers to Ecco wingtips, so that was a bad sign. The second thing I noticed was the fabric/elastic bands stitched onto the tongue. I noticed them because their unfinished edges were thick and rough enough to painfully scratch my feet on every step. Thinking Vans just run small I exchanged them for the next size up, and had the exact same problems. It's a shame the build quality is so terrible. These are very nice-looking shoes, but I'd rather go barefoot than spend a day in them.

This was a gift for my step-daughter and the 2nd pair shipped to me and the color is off. The shoes are not actually white, they are a pale yellow. Going to exchange them for a different color.

It was very hard to get my foot in this shoe and I had about an inch of space from my toes when I did finally get it on. Not to mention the heel on one of the shoes was uneven.

I bought True White Classic Slip-On's in a size 6. I was given washing instructions by customer service. I was told to dry them in the dryer as the white would show the water lines when they dried. When I dried them in the dryer they shruk at least a half size. As a result they are way to short.
I have a pair of Black silp-ons that are a size 6 1/2 and they are too big, so I dried them in the dryer to try to shrink them and they did not shrink at all.
I would buy at least 1/2 shoe size up when buying a white or true white slip-on that you plan on drying in the dryer.

Vans quality used to be great. I remember a time when they outlasted their competitors, however today they aren't worth the higher cost. When I opened the Vans shoebox, I noticed right away that the quality in canvas was not great. Two days after wearing them the right shoe's rubber began to pull away from the rubber. After a few weeks of wearing them the gap has become huge and now the other shoe is separating. I don't wear these shoes hard. I don't do a lot of walking in them (they are still very white). It's unfortunate that I spent this much money on shoes that started falling apart in two days. I am going to try glue for now...

I just want to say that I could not be happier with your customer service and attention to detail. This was my 1st time shopping with you, and I highly recommend you to all that I come in contact with. I couldn't find these shoes anywhere in my local mall, but you guys had what I needed. My neighbor told me about your company, and I'm so glad that I gave you a try. I had to return the 1st 2 pairs of shoes for my kids because they were too big. Zappos was so kind to me on the phone, and I had replacement pairs in no time! Your customer service employees were great! I wish that had their names so I could sing their praises. I have been in customer service in the banking industry for 22 years and am very impressed. You guys rock!
