This Shoe not only looks amazing it also feels amazing, I like going with the Pro models because they have that extra cushioning. Vans definitely should be more popular than Nike

I owned Vans back in my skateboarding days of the 1980's and 90's. They were kinda counter culture cool, but more importantly they held up to skateboarding.
The new generation of bubble soles make them more comfortable than ever!

From the easy to navigate website, I found exactly what I wanted, they were in stock and after ordering I received confirmation and tracking info. My shoes showed up a couple of days later. They feel good from day one. I love the shoes, I would buy them again and again

I've owned 4 pairs of these shoes and absolutely love them. I wear them basically every day and do everything with them. I've tried other vans products and been disappointed, but these shoes have never let me down.
Here are the 3 things I like most about the shoe:
Grip: I don't really skateboard that much but I certainly ride bikes a whole lot. I find that this shoe offers great grip on flat pedals. It is awesome as just a commuter shoe or even a mountain biking shoe because of the grip. Off the bike I find that I'm never wanting for traction. Even in snow I find these shoes often times grip better than even my hiking boots.
Fit/comfort: these shoes are extremely comfortable. As someone with a wider foot, I often find shoes to be uncomfortable after prolonged periods because they don't stretch to accommodate my foot. These on the other hand stretch over time to mold around the shape of my foot and they become extremely comfortable. I have no problem walking over 10 miles a day in this shoe. Other shoes from vans like their bmx waffle cup don't break in like this and it is for that reason I don't use them as a cycling shoe.
Durability: these shoes have pretty great durability. I find that the construction of the shoe is solid overall. The duracap is a more stout construction than other vans and leads to the toe box being slightly water proof I find that after months of every day wear that the canvas will sometimes get small tears or that the material color will fade, but in my opinion it doesn't affect the performance of the shoe. The sole lasts a decently long time and holds up fairly well. I have not gotten the metal pins of my flat pedals to pierce the midsole, but they do tear it up a bit, common for the territory. They don't last as long as other outsoles but that's fine. It's the trade off you make for grip. I think for the amount of grip they are still adequately durable.
Overall, I love these shoes and will continue yo buy them for the foreseeable future. If you never had vans, this shoe should be on your short list. I love these shoes, durable, grippy, comfortable, you can feel the ground the perfect amount and know exactly what's going on underneath your feet. They give you this added bit of control and precision that only comes with a shoe that lets your foot move as the creator intended.

Absolutely excellent, grippy & very comfortable - and yes the leather (suede) is of great quality & soft. These are Vans Sk8 Hi as you always imagined them to be. Although they need to restock/bring back Khaki/Gum please - one of my favorite pairs ever.

I'm a men's 6, but ordered a 6.5. Fit perfectly, because they run a bit small. I love the colour. I'm going to wear them to pride. They're very comfortable, but need a bit of breaking in, but that's normal.
The shoes also came with another pair of shoelaces, which is great.
All in all, order a half size or more up, and they'll fit perfectly.

I take my Vans to new heights every day. The terrain I traverse is often of the most gnar. Big rocks and high drops. Rivers and roads. My Vans got me.

These are some top notch Vans that I wear wherever I go. They're true to size and are extremely comfortable once you break them in.

I know these shoes are designed for younger people although; I find them to be perfect for my flat feet. The new footbed is spot on. If you start wearing this style now, your feet will thank you later.

These are my first pair of Sk8-Hi's. Ordinarily I skate a low-cut or "classic" style of shoe. After a couple of sessions, these Vans already feel broken in and I love the extra heel support the Hi's offer. Comfortable and good board feel. I will continue to keep a pair of Sk8-Hi's in my skate-shoe rotation.
