Cool looking shoes and very comfortable. I worn them on three consecutive days walking around St Augustine, FL and not a single blister. Great awesome shoes overall!

These are my favorite go to shoes! They match with every outfit and are so easy to slip on or off! I have a pair and recently purchased them for my friend and she loves them! The only downside is they can be hard to break in but besides that these are the perfect shoes! I hope to get them in every color one day!

It's not that I can't tie my shoes but given the option I'm going Velcro! These are my second pair of this model and I really love them. True to size and comfortable as all heck. Probably just going to get the whole collection of colors at this point. Try them !!!!!

I love the look and versatility of canvas shoes but struggled to find a fit that felt truly free for high arches... until this one! It's amazing, it looks slightly alt without being too heavy for smart casual workplaces. They look NOTHING like velcro toddler shoes-- Laces don't always make things better!

Needed a new pair of everyday shoes so I went back to my roots and bought some vans, and it didn't disappoint. Glad to see them still making good shoes.

I own this old school velcro shoe with a gold gum and a black line towards top of gum which I purchased from Journeys around 2019. Might have been a store edition for them. I also own 2 other velcro pairs (2017 or 2018), 1 in army green n other navy. Those r canvas with smooth leather toe top. All 3 of these are so stylish. Lots of compliments for all and folks would ask what shoe brand when I wore the green or navy. Also owned the Prison Issue many yrs ago in black canvas with velcro n white plastic toe. Wish those were also brought back. Sweet shoes!

As stated i had a pair for over seven years. The ultimate failure was the velcro. And the white around the sole started to peel. BUT AFTER SEVER YEARS. I'm gonna order a pair in black. I used them in the gym. Motorcycle riding. Riding my bike. I loved how they wore out/ broke in.

I have two pairs. These shoes are my go-to. I wear them with dresses, shorts, and jeans. I'm a bit lazy when it comes to tying laces therefore I prefer slip-ons and these with the velcro closure. By now I would own more pairs if they offered more colors.

I absolutely love these shoes well my son does. These are amazing for him, no screaming about foot pain and SO much help he has severe autism and is not able to tie laces. He can strap these puppies right on. I hope you keep them Vans. A real life saver and one less thing I have to stress about, even though it's a small thing to others- it's huge for us. < 3

I'm thrilled with my purchase of the Vans Old Skool V Suede/Canvas! The triple hook-and-loop closures are a game-changer, making it incredibly easy to slip these on and off while ensuring a secure, comfortable fit all day long. I'm surprised that Vans doesn't support this style more, given how consistently it ranks as a best-seller. It's not just about the conveniencethese shoes offer clear advantages for people with special needs, who may find the strap closures far easier to manage than traditional laces. Additionally, for skateboarders, a lace-free shoe seems like a superior option, minimizing the risk of laces coming undone during a session. I'd love to see the Old Skool V become available as a custom shoe option, allowing fans to further personalize this already outstanding design.

Well they fit but I also live in West Texas and its like +100 degrees out here lately, so I'm definitely not wearing them right now. Give me like 5-6 months and I give you a better review but so far pretty soft and comfortable
