Overall, liking the shoe style with the exception of the shoe laces. Wouldn't recommend for someone to wear daily since they can get dirty fast unless your not careful.

I purchased these for my husband to replace some worn-out summer Vans he had. I was surprised these came with only white laces. The white sneaker with leather accenting on the back and tongue is nice, but this feels like they should have had leather shoe laces, so I went ahead and ordered some to upgrade the look and make it a bit more preppy.

I like how the shoes look and fit, but I found the leather tongue rubbed on the top of my foot when I wore no show socks. Think I will need to wear them with different socks.

Fit great and no break in needed. Only minor complaint is the footbed is fairly flimsy so you can feel the ground on your feet.

Fit was good. These shoes take a few times of wearing to break in on the rear ankle area. They cut in a little bit to my foot, but after 5 or 6 wears they are broken in enough where I don't notice it. I like the look and color on the shoes.

They seen to be splotchy and stained but they will work. They are very comfortable.

These being white, they're obviously difficult to keep clean. I wish they would come already coated to resist dirt/water. The fabric on the inside is unique, and a little flashy

The style is very good and the fit is true to size. The cushioning in the heel is lacking to where I can wear them for maybe 2.5 hours of walking then you feel it in the heel. Might have to buy some insoles.

I originally ordered a 6 1/2 but was a little snug. The 7 fits perfect. Room for my toes to be comfortable.

I love the look of the Meadow shoes, so quirky! I would love to see other patterns in a design like this. I own many many Vans, and I find sizing inconsistent. Some shoes take the skin of my heels and toes (like these) and some fit just fine.
I don't think there is any amount of breaking in that will fix this issue, they are just a hair smaller than my others. After walker at the Mall of America, my feet hurt. These are not going to be be my go to for any kind of walking at length. But the pattern, so cute, I just love them, even though they hurt.

Very nice shoes for my 9 yr old son. He picked them out and really likes them. BEWARE: THESE RUN SMALL. I initially ordered the same size as his newest pair of sneakers, that still have room to grow. We couldn't even get these Vans in that size on his foot. Returned those and ordered a whole size larger and they fit nicely. As fast as he is growing, they will probably only fit through the summer, but I didn't feel like returning yet another pair and going up another 1/2 size.

The size and fit were fine. The only problem with the shoes is the shoelaces, which do not stay tied.

These Vans Era 59 are a simple, classic style. I was pleasantly surprised by the moderate arch support as I was expecting them to be more flat-as-a-board like Converse but they aren't. I was looking for white leather but settled on these canvas sneakers because they fit the style I wanted. The little bit of color and print around the inside of the shoe is fun. I tried on leather Ecco and Taos sneakers at much higher prices but the Vans were more comfortable for me. They are great quality, especially at this price.

This shoe is a little smaller than my other pair of classic vans, i'd recommend half sizing up. I could not put my insert in without it being uncomfortably snug, and additionally - the leather tongue, while cute, is longer than a traditional vans tongue so it sticks out and sort of pokes into the ankle area with little flexibility. I wanted to like these but they just didn't work.

I bought these shoes for my son. He really liked them out of the box and I expect he will get a lot of use out of them. They seem very versatile and can go with just about anything. I was a little disappointed by the lack of arch support. Don't expect to do a ton of walking in these.

Bought these for my husbands birthday in January as an everyday shoe. It’s now May and I’ve just ordered another pair. Love the look and no frills but grown up style all while still being a cool pair of Vans. Had to replace within ~5 months considering husbands office environment, but if you dig the distressed look it’ll last longer. Picture is after months of every day wear.

Love the style. Not very comfortable without socks which was something I was going for with these shoes...they dig into my heel a bit. But with a no-show sock, they're great!
