I wear them everyday at my job. I do a lot of walking & these sneakers are so comfortable. They are lightweight but very durable. I've purchased them before & I will continue to buy them.

This is one of my favorite shoes of all time. I wish Vans make this shoe in more color-ways (all white) because they're the best shoe they make. It's perfect for my flat/wide foot

I'm a vet assistant and these are my work shoes, they have held up for over 4 months of HARD wear up to 12 hours a day while still being comfy and rad as always.

I ordered a size 9 because any other Vans shoe I have worn, I have worn that size. This was my first time buying an Ultrarange style shoe, but I found them to be small. It could be the ultrarange style or this particular shoe.
As a bartender, I felt the fabric on top was thin. Personally, I like a thicker shoe in case of spills or if the shoe gets wet so my feet can stay dry.

The UltraGuide Ridgeweld are my favorite VANS. I have been wearing these for many years and have a black and navy pair. I finally needed to replace the black pair and received these. They feel a little different (maybe tighter) but still as comfortable. These shoes are ,
My go-to for work shoes. This shoe is GREAT but VANS no longer makes this model. So sad!

I liked this shoe-- it's light weight and sleek. However, I had to return the pair it because I could barely get them on-- they were so much smaller than they should have been. I wear a 7.5 in Vans. These were labeled 7.5 but it felt more like a 6 or 6.5 to my feet.

Thought these would be good walking shoes based on reviews. Fit well and were good for about a mile, but my feet were aching horribly after a few hours.

Second order purchased online, and, following the online sizing guide, shoes were too small again. Returned to local store for exchange, but they didn't have Rapid Welds, so had to settle for EXOs. BTW, Rapid Welds are a much better shoe.

I'm in my late 30s and have been wearing skate shoes for most of my life, largely due to having plantar fasciitis since I was about 10. I used to wear podiatrist prescribed orthotics, but stopped using them when I started wearing skate shoes with better arch support.
Naturally, I love the aesthetic of Vans, and bought previous version of the rapidwelds, and was generally satisfied. However, wearing this current model after about a year, I am experiencing severe plantar fasciitis flare ups right now that are probably the most painful I've ever experienced. I do not recommend these shoes if you have PF, the heel is entirely too thin and wears out very quickly, to the point where I'm worried I'm having Achilles tendonitis as a result.

I had a pair a few years ago and I remembered them being super comfortable. These were not. Super narrow tow box. Too painful to wear again. Waste.

Great everyday shoes or even running shoes. Their comfortable and light weight and are built for surffers so they are great for going hikes and what not.
I'd also recommend:
Depends I normally where alotnof different skate shoes so it depends on what I'm feeling when I buy

I love these shoes out of all the vans I've worn. I just ordered the exo pair and had to return those bc they do not live up to the ultra range. I'm on my feet for 8+ hours sometimes 6 days a week and these keep my feet from hurting. (Ive gone through many styles and brands of shoes) I work in housekeeping and the food industry they get all kinds of nastiness they hold up very well if they didn't start to smell I'd could go longer but they're lasting about 7 months for each pair, I've been through four pair I just ordered my fifth. I hope they never discontinue these!

Very narrow compared to other styles. I want to try a larger size but they won't do an exchange for online purchase. Now I've got to refund and reorder

Great looking shoe and very comfortable except... runs a little bit small everywhere but a LOT small in the toe. If the toe were just a little wider they could be considered a snug "break in" fit, but as it is they are pretty much unwearable for me as they cramp my toes badly.

I got a pair of these and a pair of Ultra Range EXOs at the same time after having previously owned a pair or EXOs the year prior. The Rapidweld has become my all time favorite. I am at that sweet spot where I have the laces set just right, tucked between the woven laces and the tongue, and I just slip them on and go every day. The only want I have for these is more colors to choose from but will happily grab another pair of the black/white when I finally need another pair.

Overall I wouldn't buy another pair but they are comfortable. The tongue area of the shoe feels tight all the time.

The shoes are fine in length but they're tight around my foot.
They're very comfortable and light. I don't know about how long they last, I just bought them.

I think the shoe would have been great, except the insole is not removable, and when I added my custom insole the toe box became too tight on top.
