Great overall shoe but not completely what I ordered. The shoe I received looks very similar, but the design is a little different, and instead of a teal stripe, it is white. I guess others have had the same thing happen.

I bought these for my 4 year old in a size 10. They fit her well with some room to grow. She loves them and has been wearing them constantly. The only thing is where the tongue meets the shoe is kind of bunched up/wrinkled, but the shoe looks great otherwise.

Worked out great for my toddler. The slip on easy pretty easy but they're a little big on her, but we don't mind because gives her a little wiggle room. There is a little struggle with the slip in and tongue of the shoe.

My PT recommended these shoes but the laces could not be adjusted to add support around the ankles. Needed to cut them out and add my own.

My daughter was dead set on unicorns and rainbow shoes for school. We are a Vans family so these just were a hit out of the park! They run reeeeally big, however. I measured her and entered it on the website which told me to buy her a toddler 10. The 10's were enormous, she could essentially walk right out of them. We returned and got the 9's. They are also extremely big but we decided to settle with them. Her toes were right at the end of her classic slip-ons in size 8.

The shoe itself is super cute, but it's really hard to get on even with the zipper. It also runs really big. My daughter is a 6, and they're about a half size too big.

These are cute shoes. I feel like they run larger than expected. My kid just grew out of the size 9 shoes she's been wearing, and these 9.5s are at least a full inch longer than her toes.

I ordered these for my 6 year old daughter who has feet on the narrower side. Unfortunately, these shoes were way too roomy, not only in width but also in depth (up/down). I even tried adding an insole but she still couldn't keep them on her feet. We've purchased this style from Vans before in canvas and those worked out really well so I'm not exactly sure why these shoes were so much bigger overall. They just don't seem to work well for children with thinner/narrower feet. They are very cute though and we were both bummed that they didn't work out.

Very stylish but I was expecting there to a small amount of room instead they flip off of my daughters feet. She’s in between sizes of 9-9.5so I ordered a 10.

So cute, but my little one's heels kept slipping out and there was no way to make them fit more tightly.

I got these for my 2 year old because she loves the color pink! They are super cute, but as other reviews stated they are a little big in the heel area. The elastic laces are kind of a pain to stretch back to their original state. My daughter pulled one on one shoe and it took a few minutes to get it to "snap" back into place. Other than that these shoes are great!

These are the cutest shoes but the glitter doesn't stand the test of time!! Lol they fade after just a few wears but only in certain areas... We love them though but maybe someone else might not like this issue!!

My daughter loved them. Size-wise in on the mark. I just felt they are a little wide for her narrow feet, causing the shoe to fall off from time to time. Just wish there was a way to tighten the top. My daughter has tiny legs and narrow feet - I'm sure it if she had wider feet it would not be an issue.

Cute shoes, but my son said the zipper on the back felt sharp on his skin. Had to return them

I wish I could love these shoes, but the zipper gets stuck and is a pain to zip up!! Because the zipper doesn't properly zip up these fall off his feet all the time. Buy the velcro or the slip ons instead.

We absolutely loved our Velcro high tops that my toddler wore before we purchased these. We thought we would give these a try and the elastic laces are just too tight to fit my toddlers feet in without just jamming his foot in, even after trying to stretch it out. So disappointed because we feel like the vans hold up for our boy's playfulness.

I like the OG high tops, and have the matching adult pair, and we love them, however, if given the choice I would definitely suggest the MTE style for quality and durability, especially for a kid. The all black uppers and soles just make more sense. (We have them too) That being said, we still love all our vans! Vans are a constant and reliable choice for shoes in our house.

The sneaker is adorable. I bought them a half size bigger, but it was hard to get my grandson's foot in them and hard to zip up. After he wore them for the day the back of his heel was red.

I absolutely love these, but would need to order them in wide. I wish the children's shoes had more options in width's. I even tried customizing them to see if that would work but not for this style.
Disappointed,

My daughter wanted to use these as skateboarding shoes, but the laces are very stretchy elastic bands and the shoes come off her easily. They look nice and she loves the style, so I might try to cut out the laces and put in some real ones.
