My daughter loves these shoes. We had to size up half a size but the return process was easy and quick.

I used a stretcher and it made this shoe wearable.

Not the same color as shown- which I get it'll look different but sepia is a tan/light brown. These are dark. They are pretty narrow as well.

These are super cute and stylish. I received a lot of compliments on them. They can be worn with bus/cas for work and just out and about. I had issues with them cutting into my heels and creating blisters.

Leather is really soft making these more pliable than canvas ones. Only thing I'd change is making the sole a little thicker. Can feel every stone through them.

I love the color combination of these shoes. Unfortunately they're not as comfortable as they look. They're the shoe I'm dying to take off as soon as I get into the door . I still wear them though

Love the shoes!! Only complaint is that it took 4 pairs of shoes/orders to receive 2 new shoes and not used ones.

If I could do it all over again I would probably order 8.5. My only complaint is that I'm getting heal blisters, but that's because it's a size to big.

Use this shoe everyday for work. Fits the basic needs for walking and comfort with the signature Vans style. Would have given a 5 star but I received a pair of shoes that were a little different from one another. No big deal as it was two different Vans heel tags. Reached out to Vans and was only offered a refund. Kind of bummed they did not offer a replacement instead. Either way I kept the shoe as it was not a defect, rather two versions of the same shoe.

Let me start off my saying I love the extra cushioning Vans has finally added to some of their shoes! I love the old school but they were always hard on my feet and my back over time. The exos have already proven their greatest strength in their ability to keep my back from hurting as well as my feel staying comfortable. Not to mention the fact that they are so lightweight makes them easy to travel with. To make it better, I was in search of a casual shoe that still spoke professionally and everyday wear. These shoes are excellent for me in that capacity.
Now, as much as I love these, I do have a few areas where I wish they could have expanded on. The most major one would be the ability for easy scuffing/ruining of the outer sole. In my photos, you'll notice that the heels have already started accruing some damage. For the price I bought these for, I was hoping for a bit more durability. I feel that, if Vans had chosen to use their typical outer souls material from their Old Skool shoes, I wouldn't have felt so upset about marks in the shoes. This makes me worried for their longevity and makes me wonder if I can even wear them casually now, since that is often for me.

The white is a dirty off white not clean and crisp.

The inner lining gave me blisters above the heel while breaking them in. Definitely wear socks beaking them in!

I should have just purchased the plain canvas whites but I wanted something a little different.
Not cute on my foot as I would have hoped.

I love the way these shoes look! They do run large, I got a half size down. I can tell there's separation between sole layers on the right shoe.

Perfect for work, can dress up or down. Only thing I see as downfall, ordered in my normal size but they are a little tight at the top of my feet.

Love the shoes, but they are too wide. Have to put inserts in them to take up some of the space!

I am so in love with my shoes. The only reason I didn't give it a 5 star is because I'm having a love/ hate relationship with the marshmallow bottoms. Other than that they're great. I used to size chart to confirm my size before buying and it's accurate so far.

The only issue I had was the size is much bigger than it should be. I'd size down.

In my size (W11, M9.5) the platform is very subtle, but I like the bit of extra chunkyness over the standard old skool. If you want it to look like an actual platform and wear bigger sizes I'd trying something else.

I owned the Ultrarange 3D model previously and the EXO feels lighter however it seems like it's made out of cheaper material , will see how much they last , also this shows are overpriced, I'm lucky I got them with a discount !

I was so excited when the shoes arrived, but when I put them on they were too big :/ so definitely size down, as it says there "size runs big"
