This shoe runs 1.5-2 sizes bigger than true size! I returned them now 3 times. Hope the next one works. My daughter wears a 3 in Vans high tops. Toe fits perfect, and in these I am now ordering a 1.5 But they are cute and well made and Zappos returns are very easy to do!

Love Vans...but they are way too narrow for toddler's feet. They're so tight that my daughter's daycare told us not to have her wear them because they're impossible to put on (even with a shoehorn). Such a shame.

Not true to size -
The shoe itself was great, just not true to size and we had to return.

Dislikes -
My son hated how he couldn't find the right size of shoes that he needed. We kept trying to find the right size for him. So me and my son hated Zappos!

They fall apart!
These shoes are a great flashback for me, and I was thrilled when my son wanted them. They do run big, but if they fit well are super comfortable. The worst thing and it's pretty important with kids shoes, is that they completely fell apart within a couple of months, and at $40 one would hope the shoes would hold up a little better than this.

My daughter got these in September, they are her school shoes NOT home/play shoes. I am so disappointed the quality of vans has gone downhill, wow.

My son was really excited for this design and has many Vans slip-one he loves wearing. But this design had very poor construction at the sole base.

I bought these for my grandson and when they arrived, I wondered, what has happened to the quality of Vans! The quality is poor! The tread on the bottom of the shoe is so cheap and slippery, not the gripping rubber type material it used to be.

So excited when I saw the pink glitter, own the white glitter! When will these be available in big kids and women's sizes?!?!

Long time Vans fan with 99% of shoes from them, they are the go to for myself and the kids. I have purchased several versions of the glitter over the years for my daughters because they are durable. Received only 10 days ago, these are the first where the glitter fades and falls off where the shoes natural crease up front. See attached photo for reference. If you have another pair from a different production run I'd gladly take a replacement.

Got these for my daughter in little kids (she just grew out of toddler size). The openings to the little kids size are SO small that she can't even get her foot in it. There is absolutely no stretch like the toddler shoe had. So disappointed because we wanted to love the shoe

Where are these Vans being made? China? Shies sizes are smaller there. Please make shies in standard American sizes. We could always count on Vans to give us a comfy wide slip on in the Past.. now we can't even wear them anymore! And WE LOVE Vans Slip ons!! PLEASE FIX THE CHINA SIZES. THANKS! ALL THE OTHER STYLES FIT FINE. Ex: lace ups Velcro straps etc.

Why change something that's isn't broken? These classic shoes now have some leather lining around ankle that causes pressure on back of ankle. The material is very different the previous pairs with NO give to them. My daughter cannot even get her foot into these. She has other vans that fit fine what happened??

Very narrow . There is no option for wide, in kids. Very limited options for wide. I've blown through 3 pairs that won't fit because they're too narrow

I bought this shoe for my grandson and the size runs small so I needed to exchange and order one size larger. The cost was $22 more than what I originally paid. Very disappointed in the company not exchanging for same pair only larger at same price I just paid.

I bought these shoes for my grandson he has wore them 6 times this month he only has wore them on the weekend and the shoes are all torn from the side the side strip of the shoes has unglued the material is all ripped from every part of the shoe . They are so cheap they are going to go into the trash because if he wears them one more hour he will not have shoe sole and material . I'm very upset because they were 60 .

We loved the pattern and ordered them for Back to School for our first grader back in May and saved them for September. She's worn them twice and they're falling apart between the toe of the shoe and rubber base has completely separated. Disappointed.

Very small! I even sized up an entire size. Very narrow and each shoe seemed like it was a completely different size. Kids Vans should come in wide! I would never purchase slip-ons again through vans! Plus the Sparkle comes off and makes a huge mess!

I bought these for my girls and they were too tight. Then I bought 2 sizes bigger and they were STILL too tight. For very narrow feet. The worst part is now I have 4 pairs of shoes we can't use or return, because I paid with PayPal and stores don't accept PayPal returns.

After 1 wear, they are falling apart. They rub horribly and caused blisters. Neither of my kids can wear them, waste of money.

My grandson wears a 12 in Van's and other shoes. I bought this shoe and his foot wouldn't even go in shoe. So I had to return them. Very disappointing.

Bought size 11 for my daughter who wears that size in everything else. It wasn't a little too small but it was waaaayyyyy too small. The size 1 fit her foot but she measures 11 on foot scale and other shoes. They just be throwing sizes on shoes
