Regular Vans Old Skool require a long break in period as the rubber is thinner on the sole which in my opinion makes it stiffer. Vans Platform Old only require a short break in period as the rubber on the sole is thicker and more pliable. Which makes them more comfortable. I also like how they make me feel a little bit taller. This is my third pair of platform Vans.

They are vans. Vans are like timeless. Easy, comfy and affordable. I like the platform because it just looks better than normal vans.

These are not very “platform” They have a little bit thicker sole. But other wise my daughter is very pleased with them. Zappos is hands down the best site for shoes. From the quickness of their shipping to the way they handle their return/exchanges. Won’t shop anywhere else!

These shoes are fantastic. My very first pair of Vans and I love them - I am hooked. They started out a little stiff, rubbing my toe in one spot but after 2 wearings they are broken in. I received so many complements on these. I love that I have never seen anyone else wear the exact same style that I have. So many to choose from.
I'd also recommend:
Vince Camuto - I love those shoes also although it isn't a comparison to Vans.

Cute and comfy!! Loving the style and the look on my feet. Still in the try-on phase. Can't wait to wear them to work. Will update on how they feel and hold up after a long day. So far, very impressed. Might have to get another pair in different color.

Love these shoes, they are so cute! I have plenty of pairs of regular Old Skools, being short, I’m so glad there’s a platform version.
I ordered my usual size m4/w5.5, and they fit just the same as my other pairs do.

I wear size 8 1/2 but prefer size 9 in women shoes. I ordered men's 8. With socks it's perfect.
Material is canvas sneaker material. Looks stylish. Love it

Wide comfortable toe box and medium heel width. With the unisex design, socks work for women who want a snug fit. Probably fine as is for men.

I have some vans that are 8s which have been fitting a little snug so I got an 8.5 in these. My toes have room in the front which is good and I have slightly wide feet. I wore these with ankle socks today and the back rubbed a little but I hope that will go away the more I wear them

These shoes are fabulous!! The laces are ribbon, which I didn’t know from looking at the pictures, but they totally add the the extravagant feel of the shoe. Even the soles of the shoe are glittery. These are a great find!!

These shoes are a great staple. They go well with everything in all seasons. They do take a few wears to break in. I felt like the backs were a little stiff compared to my more worn in vans, but after a few wears they are super comfortable.

Shoe runs a half size too big--I normally wear a size 7 in shoes but ordered these in a 6.5 and they fit perfect! These shoes were immediately comfortable when I put them on and walked around my apartment in them--I have a feeling they won't have a painful break-in period that a lot of other shoes have. I'm really satisfied with these and they will be a cute casual sneaker for the summer!

Tight at first but now they fit well. They take a few times of wearing them to break them in. First day I wore them, they were incredibly tight and they hurt a lot by the end of the day. Now I have worn them a few times and walked around all day in them with little to no discomfort. They are very cute and I like them a lot now that they are much more comfy!

I purchased these for my 10-year-old granddaughter and she absolutely loves them! The The black color is very vibrant and I love The whole brand. They wash wonderfully and just such a great shoe. Zappos next day service was as spot on as ever!

I love them and I’m glad I wasn’t hesitant. I ordered my size, 7.5, and they fit true to size. I would definitely recommend.

Love this platform shoe. Gives the old Skool vans an edgy look. Fits true to size
