Customer Reviews Vans SK8-Hi MTE

Never even tried them on. The “biking red” arrived and was basically a rose/pink, far more pastel than what was shown in the photo. I returned them. I can see now why that color was so heavily discounted.

Looks nice and comfortable (except for a couple days of breaking in; one of my feet is larger than the other so I run into this often). However, useless in the rain. Soaked up water like a sponge.

Love the style and fit, but they squeak when I walk, insert sad face here.

I bought these shoes for light snow or cold rain. The bottom sole gets cold quickly and I feel my feet cold with these shoes. These may be okay for above 50F, but definitely not in snow or below 32F. I can't return since I wore them in snow :(

I wanted to LOVE these! I wear a Womens 9 1/2 Wide and these are sufficiently wide. The length is also accurate, with about 1/2 inch of room at the toes. The problem I encountered is with the THICK BULKY stitching directly on top of my 'big toe joint' (aka MTP joint). There is a sizable lump (of thread)on the inside of the shoe, which upon lacing and tying the shoe, pushes on the joint. It's painful without movement! Had to give a 2 star rating...all the style in the world doesn't make up for pain and blisters!

Sent me the wrong size and then didn't allow me to return it.

I usually love my Vans and was so exited to have a pair of high tops that are warm and weatherproof. I was disappointed with these. After only one day of light wear my heels felt like they were hitting pavement. I even like a minimalist shoe, but this is not that. I don't know why my heels hurt so much in these.

We were excited about these but they turned out to be a total disappointment. I bought them from the Vans store here in Denver. They felt solid, looked nice and low key, and the winter season was approaching. After roughly three weeks of normal wear, the body of the shoe started separating from the sole on both shows where my toes bend. From there things just went down hill drastically! At this point (a month and a half later) I have ShoeGoo-ed the entire sole on both Left & Right to the shoe. Super disappointing. I always remember Vans being quality. And for how expensive these where I expected at least eight months of wear with minimal damage. I guess if you are wearing these minimally they could be good. They are really comfortable and look good. But for a main shoe. Expect them to break down on you quickly. It is time to start saving again for shoes that are probably expensive and crappy again. The search is never ending.

Do not recommend. It looks like a hiking shoe but it has even less support than the usual Vans. Zero arch support, and very thin tread.

Worthless. No arch support, no sole support at all.

I ordered a pair of 10.5 shoes, I was sent a pair of size 10. Terrible.

Odd that no one has mentioned this in reviews but um, they're not fleece lined. Kind of a big discrepancy to include such a detail when it isn't the case. I'm bummed because I've been looking for some warm, fleece lined sneakers and I hoped these were the ones. They look cool but I'm disappointed and will be returning.

They looked like kids shoes - not the cool street shoe I had hoped for. Also inside is a strange green color. They felt a bit small as well. I sent them back.
