Customer Reviews Vans Old Skool Platform

Can’t go wrong with these. Sleek black on black style and the platform makes them more comfortable than the traditional style.

The fit and size of these is so perfect. I normally wear a size 8 but in all vans shoes I’m a 7.5. I’m glad I stuck with my normal sizing for this brand instead of listening to some of the reviews. Had I gone with an 8 the shoe would have been way too big. Very happy with my purchase!

This was my first pair of Vans. Though it is comfortable (more comfy than Converse), it felt smaller. I suggest to get a half a size up. Otherwise I'm really happy with my Vans. I just wear them without socks.

These shoes are great. They’re comfortable and stylish. Since sizing reviews are the most important, I will say they seem to run very TTS. I’m an 8 almost across the board (I have occasionally taken a 7.5, I’m a 38 in Birkenstocks, and I take an 8.5 in some Nikes like the Cortez). Based on this, I assumed I’d be an 8 in these and was correct: the fit is great.

Ordered a different pair of Vans in the past in my "normal" size of 8.5 and they were a full size too big. Ordered these in a 7.5 and they were a half size too small. Zappo's exchange and customer service made my exchange soooo pleasant. These shoes are super cute and comfortable. Definitely would tell anyone to get a pair.

Love these shoes. They arrived super fast and fit was great (ran a little bit big, as I have super wide feet and all shoes I buy have a significant break in, but these were comfortable out of the box:) My daughter stole mine already so I have to buy another pair...

Super cute shoes. My daughter loves them.

Love the style and the shoes fir great, definitely thinking about get another pair in black

Super cute! My fav!

I love these sneakers. They fit me perfectly but purchase these in a 1 and 1/2 size down from your standard shoe size. I love that they are platforms because they give me added height.

Amazing product. I would recommend this website to anyone with large feet! I wear an 11 1/2, and the fit of the shoe is amazing. Just, if you're getting white, make sure to buy some scotch guard! ;) Fabulous product, I love them so much! Will recommend to lots of friends! Arrived a day before it was supposed to be here. I can't say enough good things about these shoes!

The sizing is true. My daughter picked these out to be her new "going back to school" shoes. All white shoes are "in" now, and these deliver. I've worn Vans for years, so I know they are a quality shoe. In certain indoor lighting, the leather and canvas aren't quite the same "white" due to the texture difference. It took my daughter a minute to get over this fact, but now she loves them.

Love them so much because they are cute and stylish, but they are not the world’s most comfortable shoes. But I will still wear them everyday. Fashion hurts.

I am a huge fan of Vans, generally I get the slip on style for myself but this purchase wasn't for me, it was for my tween daughter who normally asks me for Nikes. I was very pleased to purchase these as her choice for back to school shoes this year and I am considering also getting some of these platform old skools for myself since they are so cute. They fit as Vans tend to do, true to size in length and a bit wide for the width, which I like since my kid and I both tend to have to get wider shoes. She's worn them every chance she's gotten to go out since school still doesn't start for another couple of weeks and they are comfortable and look pretty adorable with everything she's chosen to wear with them.

They are stinking cute!!!!!! I cannot believe I’ve been sleeping on Vans this entire time. The platform style doesn’t make it look clunky or too obviously platformed. I would SIZE UP 1/2 size for sure.

Great shoe. My first pair of Vans. Very comfortable and I love the platforms. Can wait to wear them!

As always, you can never go wrong with Vans!!

These are great as usual!

My everyday shoe! Comfortable and fits perfectly.

They’re perfect!

I loved my husband’s Old Skool Vans so much I decided to get a pair for myself in platform style. My regular size is a perfect fit, and they are so comfortable I actually forget I’m wearing shoes! They needed no break-in time. And I love the looks! They are my favorite shoes.

I liked these shoes a lot. I goofed on the color I chose. I thought marshmallow (?) would be a good 'dirt color' for a lighter colored sneak but the "off the wall" embossed pattern throughout the suede was not only a surprise (look closely at it in description), but I knew for certain would attract dirt and dust on this light color. Suede is often forgiving with a Terry cloth wipe, brushes, etc but this was not gonna be... I could already see embossed areas looking grey on a new pair. I wanted other colors that had already sold out and settled on this one. Regrettably, I'm returning. It seems to me that [post?] pandemic a lot of items are sold out before season is even over but I really did like this style and will consider repurchaseing if more color choices become available. Thank You ZAPPOS for your convenience and efficiency with returns ?

I got these after I saw how good my husband’s Old Skool Vans looked, and they came the next day! I wear a 6.5 in most shoes, and since my Vans slip-on platforms are 6.5 and fit great I got these in 6.5 and they are a perfect fit! I cannot believe how comfortable they are. Of all the sneakers I have worn these are by far the best I have ever had because of their looks and comfort.

These shoes could use more cushion in the insole. I had to add more padded insoles.

Overall fit was perfect like it always is when I buy my Vans, perfect material, and always styling...
