These shoes are so comfortable!! I am normally a women’s 7.5 in Vans (I own many pairs) I did have to order a full size smaller in this style to keep them from slipping off of my heel. The footbed is super cushioned, definitely worth it!

Based on other reviews I purchased 2 pairs; 1 a 1/2 size smaller and 1 a full size smaller than what I typically wear. Contrary to many reviews stating they run big, these shoes run very true to size. Stuck with ur typical shoe size.

Felt much larger than size. I ended up going with a different Vans slip-on (SF), mostly because I wasn't convinced a smaller size would have fully solved the heel slipping issue I had. Other than that, the UltraCush was very comfortable, very cushy.

These are a game changer. Great all around. Interior is very comfortable. Exceptionally different from regular vans. I’ve walked over 10 miles in them since purchase and they are great. Great purchase. Will update if anything changes.

Very comfy, perfect for my restaurant job, just needed to size down from my usual vans size because it’s slipping off my heel. But other than that it’s a perfect shoes for any restaurant related jobs!

These shoes are great! I have wide, somewhat chubby feet and they fit just as well as the originals. I’m not sure why so many people had bad experiences with these shoes. Personally I’d recommend going with your regular size unless you have extremely wide feet.

Love the shoes but watch it on the size. I normally wear Men's US 11.5 which usually fit slightly too big but I like the extra toe room and just crank down the laces. The Men's US 11.5 in these slip-on Vans were way too big. I've been using Zappos for years and this was the first time I've sent anything back. Zappos' customer service are setting the bar pretty high, I'm not sure it's fair to other online retailers how easy this was. Anyway back to the shoes. I went a half size down and probably should have gone a full size down but these are fine and like I said, I like to give my little piggies some room.

The shoe feels shallower than regular Vans slip ons. My heel slides out much easier on these then my other slip on Vans, most likely because of the added cushion sockliner. Not a deal breaker, these are really comfortable, but takes a little adjustment wearing them.

Another stylish shoe from Vans. Very comfortable and sleek shoes but have poor ventilation and your feet will get overly hot inside.

Bought to fill a casual hole in my no slip work shoe wardrobe. Wish Vans would make a shoe actually fitted for women's feet because I love this style, they are so cute! But at a Womens 10.5 the conversion to men's size 8 ends up just way too wide and clunky on me. These were the right length so I couldn't go down in size at all, but they are so wide they just slip all around. Also they have no arch support at all. Soles slip resistance seems ok but I can't really test as I'm not planning to keep them.

The cushion is great but not enough to get this over their regular slip ons. The color is also misleading. It’s not black, it’s a dark forest green type color. I’m going to return them for their standard slip on.

As others mentioned the heel slippage is just too much. The rest of the shoe fit well so going down a size wasnt an option. Returned and opted for the slip on pros.

I am in the bar business, and wear through shoes at about a pair every 9 months. Just about 2 years with these, and finally replacing them. They faded, and I replaced the inside sole liners, but they held together and stayed comfortable.

In food service; will continue to buy this shoe as needed. Love that they're slip on and not laced cause I really don't wanna have to touch kitchen shoes. Took a while to break in but now I wear them on long shifts.

Bought these for my son to wear to work as he works in a restuarant and needs no slip shoes, these were stylish and fit great. This is the second pair he's owned first pair lasted over a year so they are well made and hold up

College student daughter chose these as her new job required non-slip work shoes. These work perfectly for her as they are comfortable and more stylish than traditional Oxford-style work shoes.

These are the most comfortable work shoes I’ve ever owned. After reading the reviews I ordered a half size smaller but definitely could have and should have ordered a full size smaller. I sometimes have my heel slip out the back of the shoe when wearing them. I’ll try thicker socks next time I wear them and hopefully that will help.

Purchased for my daughter as the standard Vans in white were out of stock. She was surprised that they were much more "soft" than her other Vans. Told her this pair was marketed for makers (users who are on their feet throughout the day). She said "what", I said nevermind...do you like the shoes. She likes them and will keep 4 sure. Image is reflected in the mirror, so I guess she tried them on to see how they look on feet...lol

I purchased these shoes for a nursing program, and so far they are holding up. They are slightly large on me, which is odd because I've been wearing Vans for over 20 years now.

These shoes ARE NOT slip resistant!!! I work at a Texas Roadhouse and I fell within 15 minutes of being on the floor. Needless to say I am so disappointed with my purchase.
