Customer Reviews Vans Kids Old Skool V (Infant/Toddler)

These are so cool and my three year old loves them. The only thing I have to say is it takes a lot of light to charge them before they glow. If it's overcast they will not charge enough to glow. Simple fix by pointing a flashlight at them for a few minutes so my son could check it out.

I'm very pleased with Vans in general. I have purchased a few times in past few years for my young grandsons. These arrived in a timely fashion. However, my daughter ordered 2 pairs days before I did and gave them my address (so they could be a Santa surprise!!!) and they have still NOT arrived! It has been almost a month. 1 pair arrived but not the other!

Love buying van for shoes. Bought size 6 and was small. Which is odd my toddler wears the same size. These were snug . Recommend sizing up

I love these shoes. I bought a pair for each of my children. However, I used the size chart and measured my children's feet and the shoes came back way too big. I am able to return one pair but my oldest has hers on and wore them outside so they're unable to be returned (my fault I know) and too big

I bought these for my one year old (he is almost walking). His previous shoes were the soft soled shoes from Carter's. In those he was growing out of the size 4, so I ordered these vans in a 4.5. Unfortunately, I feel these run a bit small considering he is almost growing out of them. He was still able to fit in the size 4 when I got these, so I thought the 4.5 would be a good size. They were a little hard to get on, but could be due to being small for my son's feet. Unsure if his feet grew like crazy or vans sizing runs small. I do like the look of the shoe, and will probably purchase a larger size in the future. Hope this helps!

Don't get me wrong, my kid looks cool as in these, but I was disappointed to find some stitching starting to come apart after just one wear. Also, not a review necessarily, but a request: it would be great to see this style without any leather or suede. We don't usually buy things with either of these and didn't really think about it before this purchase. They would be just as cool in all canvas.

Overall, my family loves vans and we liked this color for our daughter. However one slight adjustment would be to add pull on loops to all kid shoes. It's really helpful for the parents,

My toddler absolutely adores these shoes and so do I. They are true to size, and seem comfortable with her baby chucky feet. Only giving four stars due to the fact that the one pair I received had damage on the one shoe. I am a little upset with the customer service, but I was able to get a new pair of the butterflies and they came perfect. I will be purchasing again as she only prefers this style and design. The first pair of the butterflies (her first shoe) lasted really good and washed well. The bigger size has been holding up to her shenanigans . Shipping was fast and acceptable.

Love every bit but my daughter complained about a bit of discomfort around ankle area, I think the material that curves up near the ankle on the back on the shoe may be be too stiff for the little ones.

Order 1-2 sizes down from what they recommended on sizing chart. Shoes are nice! But won't be able to wear for a while, I ordered another pair1.5 sizes down and there is room to grow.

The size chart is incorrect. Better to try them before buying or size down for a 0.5-1 size. Nice and cute.

We're a Vans family so no brainer getting a couple pairs for our growing boy. We measured his foot and compared to their size chart, rounded up to the next size so he'd have a little room to grow. Bought two pairs and they are HUGE! Measured the shoe and it's 3cm longer than what's stated on the size chart. Ordered another pair a full size smaller (measurement stated was less than what his foot measures) and it's still too big. We're saving them for when he grows into them, but it'll be a while. Love Vans, but be warned you'll probably want to go at least 2 sizes down from the size chart if you want them to fit now.

Purchased for grandchild. He loves them, they fit his chubby feet nicely. Will purchase again.

I love the quality of these and really like the Velcro. Easy on for our toddler but he can't take them off easily (which is a plus). I wish the price point was better for this age group because their feet grow so quickly and we would buy multiple pairs.

So cute & well made. Bought this shoe when my son grew out of his other "Old Skool V Shoes" (size 5.5) - went up .5 sizes to a 6.0 and it fit as tight as the 5.5s. Basically threw my $$ away b/c he couldn't wear them. The size is inconsistent (smaller) compared to other Vans toddler shoes (specifically the Old Skool V Shoe, Sk8-Hi Zip Shoe & the Sk8-Mid Reissue V MTE-1 shoe).

I try to buy APMA certified shoes that are better for kids growing feet but See Kai Run fall apart after one month and Vans hold up for months, which is needed since my kids' feet grow pretty slow. These are so cute, I just wish they would design them for toddler feet instead of just sizing down adult shoes.

I'm still expecting my shoes I didn't get them yet

These are cute shoes for my toddler. I understand toddlers are rough on their shoes but we've had them less than a month (do not wear them everyday) and the suede is already separating from the Velcro. Disappointed. I'm going to have to figure out a way to glue/tack it back together

They are so cute for my granddaughter , however glitter rubs off easily. Plan to see glitter on clothes and toys. Got size 2.5 true to size.

Finish started cracking on the sunset fade lilas after one wear. I don't bother buying the glitter ones anymore, bc the glitter wears off, but not as quickly as the finish on these did, which I was not expecting. Sad. Basically feels like you can't order any fancy looking vans without expected that they won't last.

Great quality super cute just like the picture! However the sizing chart is off I measured and they are too big!!

Came a little faded.But nice ,I love it on my sons feet.

You can do better ,it came faded ,looks like it has been worn.You need to do better when selling online .

3 stars because they're cute and my kid loves that he has "real skater shoes." Unfortunately, after spending a morning scootering around the local skate park, he's nearly worn through the rubber on the toe. I bought Vans thinking they would be more durable for that sort of activity, so maybe that was a misconception.
