I bought these hopeful they would be comfortable for me to wear at work with my scrubs as I am on my feet for the day. I wear Vans shoes regularly and I like them because the toe box is not restrictive like other sneakers. So many other brands squeeze my toes. These did not disappoint!! They are light and cushy and more springy than the regular van shoes..I have worn them multiple days now and there is no rubbing, no issues at all. The only thing is that when I make a step, the area that creases along the base of my toes was making a sorta snapping sound when I would walk, which was annoying but I figure it was just the canvas being new and needing broken in. It seems to have stopped so I am happy about that. These are very comfortable. I am considering getting some other colors!

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!

Review for Zappos VIP Points(What's this?)
Runs SmallRuns Large
Runs NarrowRuns Wide
Poor SupportGreat Support
My foot is wider at the sole than at the heel. I ordered a 10.5, which is what I wear in most shoes, but these kept slipping off of my heel. I had to tighten the laces, which is then not comfortable on the top of my foot. I'm exchanging them for a smaller size to see if that helps, but I'm worried I may have to return them and move on to another style of shoe.

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.

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.

I love the aesthetic of these! The cut around the ankle is a little higher than my other Vans and it rubs my ankle but they are still pretty great.
