Customer Reviews Vans Sentry Old Skool WC

I love this show, especially excited about the red (port) color I bought. However, I purchased a size up based on the reviews. Way too big because it's a wide shoe. Now they are not listed on the site so I can't see if smaller size is availing exchange. Lesson learned to not always read reviews.

I'm not sure what the material is on the top over the toes, but all my other Van's are canvas. These make a loud popping noise when they crinkle and flatten back out when you walk. It's really annoying and I'll make sure I never get this style again. For now, I just use them outdoors where it isn't as noticeable, it's really bad when indoors.

I love them they are super comfortable but if you need to wear them everyday for work and on your feet all day they don't last. Iv had them about 6 months and there's already a bunch of holes in them.

Loved the look of these. They run small and they are narrow.

I ordered a black pair and it looked more of a navy bit they are comfy

I got them because my sister has a pair and practically wears hem every day. I'm usually a size 6 but I got a size 6.5 I'm glad I did because they are a bit narrow. I wore them for a couple hours around the house when I got them and then walked to school and back and had popped blisters. Haven't worn then since just waiting for my scabs to heal. And they say Birkenstocks are hard to break in!

The fit is much narrower than their classic skate shoe so I feel like it squeezes the sides of my foot. My husband got the same shoes and he loves them but he has narrow feet. The soles are incredibly comfortable though so I'm trying to see if breaking them in will make a difference. The fabric also feels very thin which is nice for airflow but feels easily torn.

I bought these shoes for regular wear, i.e. to work and errands with kids. They are super cute and feel potentially comfortable, but I purchased my regular size (8 women) and they were much too small. I had to return the shoes. I would've exchanged for a bigger size, but no exchange was available for online purchases.

I've never had an issue with a pair of vans for myself or my daughter. But after only 2 weeks of having these the van label on the back of the he is already coming off. To spend money on shoes I expected to get the same experience I've had every time which was great until this one. Not sure if it was this specific vans or if the quality is just not the same.

I love how comfortable the shoes are. I got them two days ago in the mail and decided to wear them this morning. I walked less than a mile to school and saw that the sole has detached from the mesh in a few places. I have not even had the shoes on for 3 hours total. I added a picture to show one area of the shoe. Called and cant get them replaced, I have to return them in the mail only (cant go to a store) and then get a refund to then go and buy a new pair. I bought them with a discount code, which I called and got back to get a new pair, but still not how this should have been "resolved" in my opinion. It is frustrating because I was about to buy another pair because I like the look and comfort of them but this just shows poor quality in manufacturing and making the product. Disappointed honestly. I wish I could recommend these shoes, but without the quality change and Vans making this right to the customers that are experiencing this, I can't say i would tell anyone to buy these.

If you were planning to wear Vans no-show socks with these, you're gonna have a bad time. There's a stitch under the tongue that is abrasive and scratchy on the top of the foot. Otherwise it seems well-made and is much more comfortable than any other Vans shoe I've had.

I've had these shoes for a couple weeks and they are very comfortable, but the stripe in the side has already started to fall off. I wouldn't recommend for every day use. I owned another pair of ultra range shoes that lasted a while, but this new version is already falling apart which is disappointing.

Ok so the first reviews I read, talk about how small they are. I order a 9.5. Way too big. Ordered a 9, still a smidge too largebut I wanted them for a specific outfit/date so I just suffered through the uncomfortable feeling. Should've stuck with my normal 8.5. The platforms are pretty solid and very hard, so I'd recommend getting some inserts if you like comfort and plan on standing for long periods of time. I want to like them:but because I was misled by these wonky reviews from people, and on a time crunch and being entirely too impatient, I'm not in love.

I had to return them because I bought a size too big because the reviews told me to. But I probably would have returned them anyway because there was a weird crease in the toe box and every time I took a step I could feel the crease rub on the top of my foot.

I love Vans' design, but the shoes are too narrow. Would love to be a customer, but the shoes simply don't fit me. Hope to see some wider options in the future.

So I have these in a kid size, but I got these sneakers in womans and the right shoe hurts my ankles I don't have a problem in the kid shoe, but the left side of the shoe is fine the fit is perfect I have room. I had my first pair for over two yrs and the fabric is still in tack I use them for casual wear. Overall I like them I just don't understand why my right shoe is making my ankle hurt

Cute style. The canvas is not user friendly. I bought them for vacaydidn't pack them because the material was so stiff.

Thought these were so cute, bought them for walking in New York. Once I tried them on, I knew instantly they wouldn't work. The back is hard and I knew they would rub.

I wear these for work and am on my feet a lot. They just aren't as comfortable as I had hoped. They are really cute and I wish I liked how they felt better!

I bought these because they are reported to be great shoes in the healthcare field.. however, with them all loosened up there was no stretch to get foot in. Don't recommend if you have anything other than a skinny skinny foot. :)

The Ultrarange EXO is probably one of the best shoes Vans has ever made. I've got them in black and white and they're perfect. I wanted to switch it up and go with this cream color on these Abalone ones. Ordered them online instead of in store and when they arrived the uppers looked great but the soles were shiny. The color they use is very "pearl" like regarding how it reflects the light. Ended up returning them and going with the all white ones but it's all good. Just a heads up.

I first bought this shoe in a size 8. It felt a little tight so I exchanged it for an 8.5. After wearing it around my house for a few hours I still noticed that tight feeling even though it was definitely long enough. I have never bought "wide" shoes but the width was definitely too narrow. If you are on the line between standard and wide shoes these are not for you. Love the style but unfortunately will be returning. Wish they came in wide!

Love the way they look. Normally I don't have to buy the wide style but these shoes I should have. They hurt my feet after a couple hours. :(

We liked them, no bad comments as far as that. There is nothing that we didn't like about them..

The waffle sneaker looks great! It was love at first sight! Once I received it and tried it on, it felt a little bigger than my size. The way the shoe is made is like you can feel the weight of your toes pushed to the front as if on a slight slope and then its roomy in the heel. It also felt heavy and clunky for me as a senior. I couldn't see this shoe as an everyday comfort sneaker and wondered how much use i would get out of it.
