Customer Reviews Vans Authentic™

Perfect! Exactly what I ordered! it was my first time with Zappos and it got here fast and cheaper than directly through the Vans store. And as far as the shoe, this is my second pair because I loved my first ones so much!

Great price and the free delivery is what sold me. These shoes were a must for my teenager starting High School. Zappos made it easier to make the purchase.

My daughter saw these shoes in a magazine and knew she had to have them! We searched several sights, including the Van's website. Either, the shoes weren't available, weren't in her size, or cost more. Zappos came through for us! Shipping was fast! We had to send the first pair back, because we misjudged her size. (I think the shoe runs true to size, I just didn't realize what size she actually wore.) Our return/refund was handled very promptly with no hassles! The shoe really does not have much arch support - I knew that prior to purchasing, but she was more concerned with appearance over support. (Since she's been having knee problems, we did add a Dr Scholls insert, which seems to help her some in terms of adding a bit more arch support.) Overall, my thirteen year old daughter is very happy with her zippy new kicks! All her friends love her style!

These shoes (salmon) are beautiful - only thing is they run small. I'm expecting a little stretch with wear and I don't plan on wearing socks with them so I should be okay.

These shoes (waxed black canvas) are beautiful - only thing is they run super small. I'm normally a 4.5 with a bit of space still left but with these there was no room at all, already called on for an exchange. Jeff took very good care of me.

I'm in love. This is my 1st order from Zappos. And I am absolutely satisfied with my purchase. True to size, color, and texture. And most importantly, it met my standards. Thank you Zappos.

Such a cute comfy shoe to wear around campus! They fit perfectly but do take some breaking in. I highly recommend that everyone owns at least one pair of Vans!

My daughter got this shoe to wear for fun, and to wear for hiphop class. I think they have held up very well, considering the amount of wear/ stress she has put them under. She loves them.

My daughter had such a hard time choosing. These were the winners and she is thrilled with the choice. Lots of compliments she wears them all the time.

I love these shoes. I wear them every day. A pair lasts me about six months before I wear through the heel (that's longer than most casual sneakers for me).

I have a few of these already, and with Vans you get the essentials in a shoe. Looks good, and the color is awesome!

This shoe is great however isnt the same color in person as it appears in the picture. I was looking for a more mint/darker sea foam type color and these are def more green than minty. I found out the color that is more minty is Beach Glass/True White which in the picture looks super light but in person is a few shades darker. Both are great colors for summer but this just wasnt the color i wanted. Great shoe though and true to size.

I love Vans, very comfy, classic and stylish. The color is bright, perfect for summer! Great next day shipping.

These are my first pair of Vans ever and I am pleased to say that I absolutely love them. I am usually a size 6 in womens for boots and sneakers depending on the shoe, but they did not have my size in the color that I wanted. They only have a 5.5 and my feet area true 5.5 for sandals, so I decided to order the 5.5. I read other reviews saying that they run 1/2 a size to about a whole size larger. And these definitely do run half a size larger. If I had gotten a 6, then it would be way too big for me. I absolutely love them and I cannot wait to wear them!

I love these sneakers and am a loyal Vans buyer. The back of one of the sneakers was a little uncomfortable along the back of my ankle and kept rubbing against it but that's the result with any new sneaker. Other than that these are a perfect, adorable, casual pair of shoes!

These shoes are fantastic! They go with almost everything! On top of that the color I purchased was unavailable almost everywhere; however, Zappos came to the rescue! Comfort wise they are alright not too bad or too great. However, I thought they ran about a half a size small. They do have a lot if support though. However, with all canvas shoes, they can get dirty quick. In conclusion if you're looking for cute every day shoes, go for it. And if you're unsure about your size, Zappos has a great return policy, and customer service!

Very cute shoe, just as depicted. My daughter loves them!

I love all my Vans and these included. These shoes run true to size. I wear an 8 in Vans and Converse but like the wide toe bed of Vans. Also the tie dye rocks!

This is quite easily one of the most comfortable shoes that I have ever worn. Good fit all the way around. I'm sure that I will being buying another pair when the time comes.

Love, love, love these shoes. I will order a half size smaller next time. They run just a little large. They go with so many different outfits.

This is my main go-to shoe for nearly every occasion. I even have a pair that looks "classy" that I will casually rock with a dress shirt and slacks. I find these to be an overall more stylish skate style shoe that both kids and adults can "rock" with no issue. Support is what you would typically expect from this style of shoe: lacking. I do not recommend if you have feet that tend to feel worn out quickly. As for comfort, I find the Authentic's to be one of the most versatile shoes. What I mean by this is that there is almost no other shoe that can be comfortable in 90% of occasions. I highly recommend picking a pair up, they will last a long time and once you go Authentic's, you'll never go back!

I love the color of these Vans! I was surprised that they go with so many of my colored jeans. I have wide feet, high arch, and a narrow heel and these fit perfectly. So comfortable. and they last.
