Customer Reviews Vans Kids Authentic Core (Toddler)

Runs a little big.my granddaughter size is 7 I could have ordered a half size down if it was available overall great shoe

Too big

Great shoe. True to size. My little one was super excited to wear.

My daughter didn't complain about the shoe at all, she has a narrow foot, I ordered a 9 and it was almost a half size bigger

Too stiff for my toddler to walk well in.

The bottom had a yellowish tint to it. Other than that they’re really nice shoes.

Love this shoes they are true to size and so comfy my son loves them!

Bought this for my almost 2 year old and seems to fit and look great. I took one star off because I found it to be challenging to tie the laces on a moving toddler. No problem with the shoes. (Just the kid)

Always a buyer of vans. So cute on my toddler. Weird thing the sole of the shoe gets sticky the first few tries it attached lint but, wore off later. Not too bad!

These shoes fit well and my one year old is still getting good wear out of them. However, the color description is inaccurate. It is much much lighter than navy. In fact we considered returning them, but chose to keep them since they are mainly for him to wear to the sitter daily.

Very cute, but I didn't realize had real laces. Not ideal for a toddler who can't tie his own shoes yet. Had to return, but if you have a workaround could be a fun pair.

We had to return these. They aren’t skip on and require tying laces. Laces with a two year old is nearly an impossible task!

Let me just tell you, I been back and forth back and forth looking for the right shoe size for my daughter I did ask on this website what shoe size would fit her if her little feet mesures 5. 5 inches and they did reply and said a size 7 would fit her just fine. Well it didn’t fit her is too big. Overall the shoe is pretty cute, I’ll keep them because I know she will grow into them.

I grew up wearing Vans, so I was excited to get these for my 3 year old. It was a mistake though. He hasn't even fully grown into them yet and already they're worn out. He's been wearing them for about 4 months and there are holes in the toes and most of the stitching is gone. On the inside the rubber lining is cracked and makes his feet hurt. He definitely won't be able to pass them down to his little brother as he has with all his other shoes, and I'm wondering if we'll need to replace them before he outgrows them. Very disappointed.

These shoes are lace up and not what is pictured on the site. Be aware that you have to tie the shoes for your little one.
