Straight as a board - Shoes looked ok but were very stiff. Rubber on top separated from shoe so it doesn't look as good as before.

These things are really sick, but if you wear them without socks (as I do and most people), they tear up the back of your heels, so I advise wearing socks. After you bruise your heels then you're fine, they just need to be broken in. But buy these though, they've got awesome styles and they're comfortable after you break them in.

Good buy - Really cool looking shoes, nice for summer and warm weather. They don't have great arch support, so if you have a problem with that then they may not be for you. Overall, I enjoy wearing them and they are decently comfy.

Cool - I love it. Looks awesome. The only thing is there no "air holes" so my feet get sweaty in them.

The shoes for summer! I got these shoes in the blue flower pattern and they will be a staple this summer. They are especially appreciated because they draw the attention down from my big pregnant belly! Only problem would be that they don't look good with socks, so a little blister the first time out.

Super cute shoe - These shoes are very cute and comfy although they do lack support. They are a good out and about shoe but if you're walking for miles then you might want to put in an insole for extra squishiness.

Comfortable! I love these shoes. i needed relatively nice looking sneakers for work. I especially like them because they are wide enough for my feet.

Pretty great - I got these in charcoal. Very comfortable. Took a month to break them in but well worth it. They are my favorites. Great deal for the price.

For adults too - I know the kids where these, but when I wanted a pair "sneakers" I decided to order these in brown (more adult looking?) They were comfortable from the start and they look good with casual slacks.

Great deal, not so great quality - The shoes are a pretty good deal. Great comfort, easy to rock without socks, but the quality has appeared to decline since the good ol’ days. The rubber on the heel has already begun to disconnect from the shoes. Other than that, no complaints.

Good alternate - Nice to find a brown canvas shoe. Vans sizes are accurate and comfortable.

These are light, and comfortable, but they are not good for skate boarding which is what I got them for. They are only good for show.

If you have flat feet, these are not for you. I’ve only had them 4 months, and they already completely worn down, and the rubber sole is already ripping. I didn’t have taps put on them. I thought the nail for the tap might have gone into the insole.

I love vans. I have many pairs and think they are great but I bought the white and black checkered version and they are not holding up well. The check pattern is starting to rub off in places and the canvas is separating for the rubber after only wearing them about four or five times.

Ordered these shoes for my daughter, within less than a month they were disintegrating before our eyes! Called customer service and to my surprise the agent refunded my money and it posted to my account that day! I was in shock, no questions asked! The best customer service in the retail world. I didn't have to send them back, hassle free. I will order from Zappos from now on.

After just 3 weeks of my 13 year old wearing them, they are tearing away from the sole! This is his 4th pair. The 1st 3 pairs were fine!

Fell apart within weeks. Both shoes ripped. Good looking kicks? Yes. Worth the money? No.

The best to do it, the classic shoe. 20 years of wearing the authentics and over 25 of wearing vans in general just classic #sweepstakes
