My favorite pair of vans that aren't MTE. The leather gives more than the suede and my feet never feel cramped. Insole is wonderful, they are super cute with everything. For men and women!

gummy soles and leather uppers. the soles are an excellent blend of rubber, i can see right of the bat that these will hold up to some walking riding skipping. and the leather upoers protect the toes better than the canvas kind. verry good and well built.

I've worn Vans for forty years and usually have at least a couple of pairs in different colors for different looks. When I needed a fresh pair of slip-on's I tried the Skate version and was so happy that I picked up the Skate Sk8 Hi in the classic blue and navy colorway. The Sk8 Hi fits me very well, and the Skate version did not disappoint. I like the more robust shoe, and it required no break-in to be comfortable. The laces are a bit short and I cannot use the upper lace hole, which is fine because I wear the casually. I was worried the tongue elastic might be uncomfortable, but it isn't in the least, and I like how it keeps everything in place. The Skate Sk8 Hi worked so well for me I ordered a second pair in a different color!

Love the color combination of my sk8-hi. I purchased these the royal blue color. As always they provide a nice ankle support and can lace wide enough for my wide feet.

I'm a sucker for gum soles so naturally I loved this shoe. Originally, the sole had a glossy finish which looked terrible. Exchanged it and got a pair that is matte instead of glossy. Apparently they are phasing out the glossy soles, which is good!
My original review was 1 star due to the glossy finish. My new review is 5 star. I would buy it again.

I started skating on an e board at 68, at 71 I just bought my first pair of Vans and amazed how much more secure/safe I feel with the form fit and especially the traction. Vans are now an essential piece of equipment for me and they look great!

I'm older 51 and vans make my feet happy - I will always wear them no matter how old I get - I especially dig the special edition vans - the slides are the most comfortable I've worn - take care of your feet and wear Vans

Can't believe the difference these shoes made in my longboarding. Way better balance and paddling. I'm 66 so I need all the help I can get! Love my Vans, super stoked with them! Keep the stoke

I only received these new pair of shoes a little over a week ago so I know nothing of the longevity yet, but here's what I do know...
I love them! They're like Ghost Vans, the only color disrupting the suede uppers is the stitching, which matches the soles. They come w sole colored laces to bring out more contrast, OR you can use the suede colored laces to make them Ghost Shoes! It is so cool!
Next, these are no regular classic Vans. Every pair I've ever had (which is a lot) come pretty stiff so it takes a while to break in to be totally comfortable (which is def worth it bc they are ALL Awesome). These Ghost Vans were comfortable from the first wear! No edges pressing, no pinches..these suckers feel like they're already primed, ready to go! No break in period!!
They also have the new insole tech (compared to classics) that gives you super support at every point that you'd need them to be! My last pair were MTE's & the same new insoles were in those, too. AWE-SOME!!
So, w all of these pros so far, I have no room to believe that they will be anything less than what they feel like right now.
Do It, You Guys!! GHOST VANS ROCK!!!

Bought these for my son he absolutely loved them. He should own stock in vans with everything he has from there.

Love this new rendition of a classic proven style.
I read a reviewer who says they've worn vans forever and this updated style doesn't work for them, that made me nervous being that I am of the same vein. However, I found these shoes to be the exact opposite for me. I think I prefer them to the original classic design, and may buy a spare just incase vans thinks about discontinuing these gems!
